Dr Mark Evans shared his experience of the reunion in a LinkedIn post. He wrote:鈥�
‘’I have two abiding memories of the afternoon – going from recognising just a few faces when we first gathered outside the building to clearly remembering everyone鈥痓y the time鈥疘 said鈥痝oodbye;鈥痑nd a time warp moment during the round table discussion when it could have been 1994 and we were having a design crit.’’
He continued by sharing what made the reunion particularly remarkable for him:鈥�
‘’I have taught many students over the years鈥痓ut, as my first cohort from enrolment to graduation, this was a鈥痵pecial鈥痝roup, and it was wonderful to reconnect.’’
