Sam Zell (1941–2023), the billionaire real estate investor and founder of Equity Group Investments, was a proud alumnus of the University of Michigan, earning both his B.A. (1963) and J.D. (1966) there. While an undergraduate, he managed apartment buildings and became a notable figure in campus entrepreneurship.
Zell and his fraternity brother Robert Lurie maintained a lifelong partnership that began at Michigan.He remained one of U-M’s most generous donors: the business school’s entrepreneurship program is named the Samuel Zell & Robert H. Lurie Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies, and he funded the Zell Lurie Founders Fund. The university awarded him an honorary doctorate in 2003 and he frequently returned to teach and mentor students.
Interior Finishes: Ceilings
International Building Code Chapter 23: Wood
“Office in a Small City” 1953 Edward Hopper
Chapter 8 of the International Building Code contains the performance requirements for controlling fire growth and smoke propagation within buildings by restricting interior finish and decorative materials. A great deal of interior square footage presents fire hazard; even bulletin boards and decorations; as a simple web search will reveal. We are respectful of the competing requirements of safety and ambience and try to assist in a reconciliation of these two objectives.
Free access to the current edition of the relevant section is linked below:
The public input period of the Group A Codes — which includes the International Fire Code; which contains parent requirements for this chapter — closed in July 2nd. Search on the word “interior”, or “school” or “classroom “in the document linked below for a sample of the ideas in play.

Current Code Development Cycle 2024-2026
Most of the ICC bibliography lies at the foundation of the safety and sustainability agenda of education communities everywhere so we follow development continuously; setting priorities according to our resources. We keep the issues in this chapter on the standing agenda of our Interiors colloquium. See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting; open to everyone.

Tier Classification System
The Uptime Institute’s tier system classifies data centers into four levels based on performance, redundancy, and availability, from basic to fully fault-tolerant. A Tier I (basic capacity) facility has single paths for power and cooling, while Tier II adds some redundant components like UPS modules and generators. Tier III (concurrently maintainable) includes multiple, independent distribution paths, allowing for maintenance without taking the system offline. Tier IV (fault-tolerant) is the highest level, with 2N or 2N+1 redundancy to withstand single-failure points in critical systems.
Tier I: Basic capacity with a single path for power and cooling; requires downtime for maintenance.
Tier II: Adds some redundant capacity components (e.g., UPS, generators) to improve reliability over Tier I.
Tier III: “Concurrently maintainable,” meaning maintenance can be performed without interrupting operations due to multiple, independent distribution paths.
Tier IV: “Fault tolerant,” with a fully fault-tolerant infrastructure (2N or 2N+1) that can withstand any single-point failure.
The system focuses on the performance-based goals rather than specific technologies, and each tier builds upon the previous tier

Ralph Vaughan Williams “Sea Symphony”
This is his RVW’s first completed symphony and one of the earliest major choral symphonies in English music. Setting poetry from Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass, it explores the sea as both a literal and spiritual metaphor for exploration and human destiny. Premiered at the Leeds Festival, it signaled Vaughan Williams’s move toward a distinctly English symphonic voice, blending expansive orchestration with modal harmonies and visionary choral writing. The work’s significance lies in its ambition: it established him as a leading British composer and opened a new path for English symphonic and choral expression.
