#346 - Balancing Academia and Professional Practice

In this episode we have a conversation about Cormac's exciting new adventure as an adjunct faculty member at Lawrence Technical University. We discuss the nuances and challenges of teaching architecture, the importance of understanding the 'why' behind architectural tasks, and the often under-appreciated value of PhDs in the field. Cormac also shares his practical approach to mentoring and the significance of maintaining a holistic perspective in design. Episode Links:Lawrence Technological University College of Architecture + Design-----Thank you for listening to Archispeak.
