President’s Message
August 2022
Distinguished Colleagues and Our Friends in Allied Organizations,
I hope my second letter to you as the President of the Council of Educators in Landscape Architecture (CELA) finds you well. As we start the new academic calendar, I wanted to share the CELA’s and some allied organizations’ recent activities.
CELA 2023 Conference March 16-18, 2023 San Antonio, Texas
The CELA Standing Committee on Conferences and Events has been working throughout the spring and summer organizing a quite exciting conference. The venue will be located on the San Antonio Riverwalk, often billed as the #1 attraction in Texas. San Antonio was also ranked as the fastest-growing U.S. city in terms of numeric population growth between 2021 and 2022 and provides a setting for reflection and discussion on growth, climate change, and green infrastructure. In addition to the River Walk, there are numerous and exciting cultural and landscape aspects to explore. The CELA is working hard to set up some amazing and interesting conference activities for its membership. They will be shared soon…
