Planning Program Receives Award
The regional and community program at Kansas State University received the 2007 Ad Astra Award from the Kansas Chapter of the American Planning Association (KAPA).
Given during last month’s annual KAPA conference held in Manhattan, the award recognized “significant long-term contributions to the field of community planning, taking the profession to higher levels and making great communities happen.”
The award also recognized the 50th anniversary of K-State’s planning program, currently part of the Department of Landscape Architecture/Regional and Community Planning in the College of Architecture, Planning and Design.
Program faculty include Professors Al Keithley, John Keller, Larry Lawhon, Sherri Smith, Ray Weisenburger and Emeritus Professor Vernon Deines.
