Patricia Lindsey |
| For
students that just want to design, Patricia Lindsey provides
a special lesson-teaching students to appreciate plants. A researcher
and professor at the University of California at Berkeley, Lindsey
has a particular interest in the impact of development on trees.
She often takes her students and other landscape architects
on field trips to examine roots affected by construction. She
shows students that too many trees are entombed in pavement,
and encourages students to use their design skills to come up
with new alternatives.

Randy Hester |
| Randy
Hester, a professor and former chair of the landscape architecture
department at the University of California at Berkeley, is a
proponent of designing for all people--including minorities,
the poor, at-risk youth, and so on. At Berkeley he has encouraged
the department to take more risks and move beyond superficial
form-making. In his teaching and his work, he combines tenets
from both the civil rights and the environmental movements.
