The future of one college at the U of A looks promising as it continues to expand.
The Fay Jones School of Architecture ranked 19th in the Design Intelligience annual design education survey for 2012. After eliminating the private schools out of the rankings the U of A ranked 8th overall.
Dean of the Architecture school Jeff Shannon says the renovations along with the award will make a dramatic impact in the recruitment of students for the future.
A 15-20 percent increase is expected in the current student population. The renovation of Fay Jones School of Architecture will be ready for the 2013-2014 school year.
