The Historic Preservation Planning course, which includes students from almost every College of Architecture division, loaded a bus on a Saturday and traveled to document historic buildings in Waurika, Oklahoma during the community’s annual Brick Street Classic Car Show.
Students in the course also traveled to the Oklahoma Arts Conference in Oklahoma City or took a tour of historic Stockyards City. The Intro to Urban Development course traveled to northeast Oklahoma City to learn from real estate entrepreneurs working on residential infill developments.
These courses are both offered by the Environmental Design program.
