Betsy Peters Rascoe is making her mark. 📍🐺
As an alumna, Leaders Council member and owner of Design Dimension, Betsy continues to show up for our students, from donating materials to our Materials Lab to supporting the next generation of designers who haven’t yet entered college.
This Day of Giving, she’s supporting the Design Lab for K–12 Education, which provides immersive programs like Design Camp for middle and high school students across North Carolina.
Future designers start somewhere. Programs like this help them discover what’s possible.
Join Betsy and Design Dimension by #GivingPack on March 25.
Let’s get to work. 💪
Cool mornings, painted skies and Leazar Hall right before the streetlights turn off.
Some marks last a lifetime.
Architecture alumnus Jason Forney, FAIA says the College of Design made its mark on him by challenging what he thought he knew, sharpening his critical thinking and building the design skills he uses every day as an architect.
Now a principal at @brunercott in Boston, Jason has helped lead nationally recognized projects and was named a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects in 2020, one of the profession’s highest honors.
But before the awards and publications, there were late nights drafting in the studio, connecting with amazing teachers and building life-long friendships. It`s also where he met his future wife, Sarah – a 1996 graduate of the Wilson College of Textiles. ❤️
Jason is making his mark for Day of Giving by #GivingPack to our Design Lab for K-12 Education. You can make your mark too.
Join us on March 25 and help the next generation of designers find their voice, their community and their path forward. 🐺🎨
