DEANS AND CHAIRS SURVEY
“Early on, deans at a number of schools moaned about the rankings,” remembers Theodore Landsmark, Assoc. AIA, president of Boston Architectural College. The deans and chairs feared that state funding might be tied to their position on the charts. Some people in the academy still view the survey with a certain skepticism. “The higher our rank, the more intelligent we think the document is,” laughs Douglas Oliver, a professor at Rice University School of Architecture and director of design at Morris Architects, in Houston. “If we slip we think the system is flawed.”
In response to earlier criticism, in 2007, Greenway began using a school-evaluation survey informed by questionnaires sent to academic leaders in addition to its practitioner-driven rankings. “Deans and chairs of all NAAB-accredited architecture programs are invited to participate,” Cramer says. This year 67 programs responded, and the deans’ opinions do not differ from those of practitioners as dramatically as was perhaps suspected. Academia’s top five schools hew closely to the more publicized rankings; only the appearance of Auburn and Princeton in the B.Arch. and M.Arch. ratings, respectively, differentiates this list from the practitioner-rated top 10.
