Thank You.

Sense of PlaceOff the grid vs. on the grid

Clusterfuck nation vs. quant European towns

NYU vs. other schools (with the community-feel)

The idea of Home……

These are just some of the memorable topics from class.

It has certainly been one of my favorites at NYU, and sadly, Sense of Place is my last class at NYU. I loved the setup of the class, from the class size to the actual material tought, and I especially loved our class discussions. Everyone seemed to have a lot of interesting things to say, and it only made me love Gallatin more for that opportunity.

Place has always been something I’ve been sensitive to. I’m always aware of how places affect me, whether that is in finding the perfect place to study or just the way I feel when traveling abroad. I don’t think I’ll ever go as far as Elizabeth Chamberlain in her quest for ultimate Feng Shui, but I will certainly consider color psychology and space relation once I get my new apartment in the city (perhaps in a week! YIKES).

This class will stay with me forever.

Thank you Steve, and thank you class for all your wonderful insight.
