May 11, 2020 Students Win 2020 “First Impressions” Contest
Because of coronavirus, we鈥檙e not working from campus, but we鈥檙e always working on campus!
Third-year Architecture students, Sarah Lloyd and Tate Hill, were named two of the 2019-2020 winners of the Volunteer First Impressions Contest at UT 快活视频. Created by the Facilities Services department for on-campus enhancement projects, the promotes student engagement while sprucing up public areas around campus that need extra attention.
Lloyd and Hill鈥檚 proposal focused on a small section of campus that impacts students and faculty daily. They proposed a sidewalk that would connect the parking garage on Volunteer Boulevard to the west end of the Art + Architecture building, ultimately replacing the current, man-made footpath.
Though the concept is simple, this sidewalk would better direct foot-traffic, improve the look of our campus and enhance campus infrastructure overall.
Entries were judged on 鈥渇irst impressions,鈥 their overall impact to students, faculty, staff and visitors as well as a scope within the limit of $10,000 to complete.
