Jeffrey Hogrefe, PT faculty
Jeffrey Hogrefe, Adjunct Assistant Professor, UG Architecture
With an education on both undergraduate and graduate levels at UC Berkley in Architecture, Geography, History and Semiotics I am a writer and a critic and I have taught at Pratt in that capacity since fall, 1999, when I was assigned to teach a freshman English course in a section that was dedicated to architecture students. As a participant in the School of Liberal Arts and Science's Pilot Program to Improve the Freshman English Curriculum I developed a freshman English course that was cross linked and integrated with a first year architecture design studio. Under the aegis of an interdisciplinary relationship between SLAS and Architecture I have developed, as well, dedicated writing components in history and theory courses and in the fifth year Degree Project.
Under my initiative the School of Architecture, in 2006, received a $10,000 grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in Fine Arts to further develop and to document what has evolved as the Architecture Writing Program: Language/Making, which I currently coordinate. Proposing a synthesis of the language pragmatics outlined in the Deleuzian Abstract Machine in a series of linked courses in writing and design I am currently preparing a paper on the experimental curriculum for publication in an upcoming issue dedicated to interdisciplinarity in the Journal of Architectural Education. I have also served as an invited critic on reviews in studios in all of the five years of the undergraduate architecture program and I have a broad knowledge of the curriculum both in the School of Architecture and SLAS.
As a senator I would represent those constituents who are concerned about the overall general education of students in Undergraduate Architecture, particularly with regard to the relationships between "languages" and "grammars" within and between the disciplines, and the role of knowledge producion in a design studio. I have been a member of the Senate committee on assessment and this fall I was assigned by the Senate to conduct a roundtable discussion group on the Sudio as a Model for the Academic Course, which included a cross section of faculty from various discplines. In the spring semester I will be organizing in the same capacity a roundtable on the topic of Formalism in 2007.
Inquiries on my positions in any relevant topic are encouraged.
It would be a pleasure to represent your interests on the Senate.
