    That’s the rumor.  I hear it will be ticketed and not part of the College of Design series.  It will probably be in another building on campus that is larger as well…..

    I’m looking for more info

    Yep, that looks like Charlie fuckin Rose to me.  This Dick Jackson guy was honored by George W Bush for his work for the environment, so he’s gotta be stellar.
