We follow the construction spend rate of the US education industry; using the US Census Bureau Construction Spending figures released the first day of every month.
We encourage our colleagues in the education facilities industry to respond to Census Bureau-retained data gathering contractors in order to contribute to the accuracy of the report.
Status check on standards action that guide laboratory safety and sustainability in all building disciplines. There are about ten standards developers in this space and they do not all move in a coordinated manner among themselves; much less from state-to-state. Anyone is welcomed to join this teleconference with the login information below. For an agenda, please join our mailing list.
Overview of codes and standards relevant to the food service enterprises in K-12 schools, college and university student housing, athletic venues and university-affiliated healthcare systems.

We start National Poetry Month in the United States and Canada every year with an inquiry into changes in the (meaning of) definitions at the foundation of best practice literature; frequently the subject of sporty debate among experts writing codes and standards for the built environment of education communities.
In the United Kingdom, National Poetry Month is celebrated in October, and it is known as “National Poetry Day” which has been observed since 1994. It is an initiative of the Forward Arts Foundation, which aims to encourage people to read, write and perform poetry.
Other countries also have their own poetry celebrations, such as World Poetry Day, which is observed annually on March 21 by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) to promote the reading, writing, and teaching of poetry worldwide.
We use a Tamil mnemonic because Tamil is the oldest surviving language and remains the spoken language of 80-odd million people of South Asia.
Today we explain our collaboration with other education settlements in the US and other nations. We conform to participation requirements set by ANSI US Technical Advisory Groups to the International Organization for Standardization but we also have liaison with other universities in the European Union who conform to the participation requirements of their own national standards bodies.

A walk through the status of best practice literature that sets the standard of care for safety and sustainability in the education facilities built for the performance arts.
Altan is a traditional Irish band known for their renditions of folk songs, so it’s not uncommon for them to have their own interpretation of traditional tunes.
In the case of this version, where an older woman is married off to a much younger man by her father, it still falls within the broader tradition of folk music storytelling. Many folk songs feature themes of love, relationships, and familial dynamics, and this variation of “Daily Growing” explores the dynamics of age differences in marriage, which is not uncommon in traditional music.
While the exact origin of Altan’s version of the song may be difficult to trace, it likely draws from the broader tradition of Irish and Scottish folk music, where such themes are common. The song might have been passed down through generations via oral tradition before being recorded by Altan or adapted from other sources within the folk music canon.
Today at 15:00 UTC we review the consensus products that set the standard of care for nursing school instructional and clinical training facilities. Open to everyone. Use the login credentials at the upper right of our home page.
Review of all consensus, consortia and open source codes, standards and regulations regarding energy production and conservation relevant to the education facility industry.
Faculty and staff in the education industry in all nations provide basic research, application research in energy technologies. The “cities-within-cities” we call the #SmartCampus” also provide crucibles for new testing new technologies as well as provide energy load for utilities operating under all ownership regimes.
Today we refresh our understanding of the regulations for Class D campus radio systems. We review the literature for production technologies and FM transmission technologies through airwaves, cabling systems, the internet or a combination of all.
Today we run a status check on public consultations released by ANSI-accredited and finance industry consortia whose involvement affects the cost of US education communities. Ahead of quarterly county elections we examine a few tax-free bond referenda on ballots across the US for insight into the money flow through education communities.

Ahead of the Easter and Passover season, we present our ongoing coverage of best practice literature for architectural design and engineering of worship and reflection spaces in educational settlements. Our Ann Arbor office door is open until 12 noon today.
Chapels in colleges and universities hold significant importance in the academic and spiritual life of these institutions. Beyond serving as places of worship, they often embody the founding principles and values of the educational establishment. Architecturally, many college chapels are designed as architectural masterpieces, reflecting the institution’s commitment to excellence and beauty.
These chapels serve as gathering places for the campus community, fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose. They provide a sanctuary for students, faculty, and staff to find solace, reflection, and spiritual guidance during their academic journey. Moreover, college chapels host various events, such as convocations, ceremonies such as weddings and christenings.
Historically, many colleges and universities were founded on religious principles, and their chapels serve as a reminder of their heritage and tradition. These sacred spaces play a crucial role in nurturing the holistic development of students, combining intellectual growth with spiritual and moral enrichment, ultimately shaping well-rounded individuals prepared for life’s challenges.
