The Alwin Cassens, Jr. Memorial Fund in Architecture was established in 2015 by Diane Cassens Cummins and Richard Cummins, and Joan Cassens Zinner (MM ’66), in memory of Diane and Joan’s father Alwin Cassens, Jr. (A ’34). The purpose of the $2,200 award is to provide financial support to School of Architecture students to attend conferences or other events in support of their academic pursuits in the area of public interest design. 2020
Based on common foundations and a shared vision, NOMA, NAACP, and the SEED Network announce Awards for Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (JEDI) in design, architecture, and land development. Seven projects have been selected through a competitive and by a distinguished jury. Each winning project will receive a $1,000 honorarium and will present their work at the NOMA National Virtual Conference on October 17, 2020.
