Landscape Architecture

October is National Arts and Humanities Month, a celebration that recognizes the vital role the arts and humanities play in enriching our lives and communities. This month, we’re excited to highlight the exceptional work of our faculty, whose creativity, research, and dedication inspire students and elevate the cultural landscape. Today we celebrate Kelley Lemon, professor in the Department of Landscape Architecture!

Two professors from the College of Fine and Applied Arts, D. Fairchild Ruggles (Landscape Architecture) and Cynthia Oliver (Dance), have been named endowed chairs or professors. They are two of nine new endowed professorships on the U of I campus.
