A Stark View From Inside Architecture School

It must be utterly terrifying to be a student in architecture school right now — as opposed to the comfortably-mild terror the rest of us out here in the real world are experiencing. With Frank Gehry losing projects and Norman Foster‘s mass layoffs, to Scotland-based schools telling students to scram, or to the AIA‘s regular troubling reports, going to class every day and spending thousands upon thousands of dollars to be there as you inch forward every day toward a job that won’t be waiting for you has to be a pretty lousy feeling.
