This 30-day takeover will highlight the projects of the next generation of landscape architects and favorite designed spaces on campuses across the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re really excited about putting the future of the profession and ASLA on display,\u201d said Nancy Somerville, ASLA\u2019s Executive V.P. and CEO. \u201cWe want to showcase the great projects our student members create while we move into a new era for the Society.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>ASLA will also debut its new brand identity in April.
