The Department Journal.

The Department Journal is where the life of Department comes into view. A space to keep up with what’s happening across our buildings, from cultural events and community moments to interviews, ideas and behind-the-scenes stories.
The Department Journal reflects the experience of being here, not just the spaces we create, but the life within them.
