Each Friday at 1:00 p.m. during the first 7 or 8 weeks of the academic term (Fall, Winter, and Spring), PSU School of Architecture students and faculty gather to hear presentations from professional architects, designers, academics, visiting artists, innovators, and more. The School of Architecture provides coffee each week. These events are free and open to the public. 

All architecture students enrolled in studio courses are required to attend.
