LAEP Speaker Series: Dan Jost
Lecture/Readings
The Tenuous Renaissance?in Playscape Design
In recent?years, the U.S. has undergone a renaissance in playscape design. Those designing and commissioning playgrounds are increasingly moving away from static pole and platform structures that provide?little play value and even less challenge. While safety is still one of the major drivers of playground?design, there?is an increasing understanding that not all risks can or should be limited--and some are beneficial. The adventure playground--where children build their own environments with hammers and saws--has made a bit of a comeback, and loose parts are being embraced on a wider scale. Innovative climbing features let children climb higher, farther, and in more social?ways--while limiting falls from high places. And designers are increasingly bringing nature into playscapes--which has positive?impacts on children's?health and well-being.?
In this presentation, Daniel Jost will discuss the playscape renaissance taking place, some of the playscapes he documented as a writer at Landscape Architecture Magazine, and his own efforts to support thoughtful playscapes and outdoor learning environments.

Feminist Killjoys at Work
Lecture/Readings | Diversity, equity, and Inclusion
In this lecture I explore what we come to know about institutions from our efforts to transform them. I will draw especially on two chapters “The Feminist Killjoy as Philosopher” and “The Feminist Killjoy as Activist,” from my forthcoming The Feminist Killjoy Handbook. To be a feminist killjoy (or another kind of institutional killjoy) means not only confronting institutional problems, but challenging how institutions use our efforts to change them as evidence they have changed. The lecture explores how being feminist killjoys at work means recognising that the figure of the feminist killjoy can be appropriated and neutralised. Being feminist killjoys at work also requires finding other institutional killjoys, because the more we come up against, the more we need more.

Entrepreneur Leadership Series: Lola Strong
Panel Discussion/Presentation
As a young woman, Lola dreamed of making a difference in the world. Her progress was completely derailed in 1998 when she was prescribed pain killers, which quickly developed into an all-consuming addiction to heroin. Lola’s downward spiral led to a place where all drug - addicts go - to a series of rehabs, jails, then prisons. In 2008, she was on her way to her fourth prison term, but an empathetic judge gave her the choice to complete two years at Delancey Street rather than serve her five year sentence. The opportunity was life changing. Today, Lola is a cofounder of The Other Side Academy (TOSA), and the managing director of the Denver facility. Most important to Lola is the fulfillment she gains from using her formidable skills and selfless determination to help others change their lives.

Communitas Lecture Series: Len Davis
Arts/Entertainment
Artist Statement: I work in assemblage, collage, drawing and works on paper which revolves around themes of everyday life issues we encounter with the human figure present. My concepts vary from emotional expressions, responses or outcome ( anger, chance, fear, happiness, hate, hurt, jealousy, love, regret, risk, vulnerability etc...), identity, perception, coping within the human condition etc... I have eclectic taste. My style is a combination of several elements with heavy emphasis on illustration, mixed media and vibrant colors with the human figure in an action-type, comic book, expressive pose and/or movie poster-like look & feel. It’s like a pizza with everything on it. Once you take that first bite, you’re inundated with flavor. And that’s what I strive for in my work. Because life hits you all at once. I occasionally insert my past experiences in my art. I believe that some of my experiences, in some cases, parallels to others for a sense of relatability. My premise is to lure the viewer in. Once they’re in, they will be placed in a position to reflect on and question their ethics, be it disquieting or placid.

LAEP Speaker Series: Sean Burkholder
Lecture/Readings
Managing Muddy Methods As climate-induced shifts make our coastal environments increasingly volatile and unpredictable, establishing new ways of working that move beyond the tried-and-true assumptions that past observations provide accurate examples for future conditions has become necessary. This becomes even more prescient when considering the objectives of designing or engineering with nature as opposed to simply protecting ourselves against it. Experimentation and contextual knowledge are finding new applications where once we relied on established and universal standards of best practice. With a focus on liminal coastal environments of both fresh and salt water, this talk will span a range of recent design work, organized around the subject of landscape research methods and this role of experimentation.

Utah State Theatre: Misalliance
Arts/Entertainment
The play takes place entirely on a single Saturday afternoon in the conservatory of a large country house in Hindhead, Surrey in Edwardian era England.
It is a continuation on some of Shaw's ideas on marriage, Socialism, physical fitness, and women intent on escaping Victorian standards of helplessness, passivity, stuffy propriety, and non-involvement in politics or general affairs.
Misalliance is an ironic examination of the mating instincts of a varied group of people gathered at a wealthy man's country home on a summer weekend. Most of the romantic interest centers on the host's daughter, Hypatia Tarleton, a typical Shaw heroine who exemplifies his lifelong theory that in courtship, women are the relentless pursuers and men the apprehensively pursued.
