In the new episode, titled “Exploring Connection with Award-Winning Professor and Architect Teresa Rosano,” Franke Honors College Interim Dean John Pollard holds a conversation with Rosano about her design approach, the creative process, her values as an architect and instructor, and the importance of connection to people and place.
