Dennis L. Law, FASLA Dean College of Architecture Planning and Design Kansas State University Manhattan, Kansas Kansas State University, MLA Partner in firm: The Land Design Collaborative Category: Knowledge "To the future generation of Landscape Architects, I give this advice: The quality that separates the landscape architect from other design professionals is the long-standing tradition that the user was what mattered most in the context of the natural enviromnent. As we mature into a seasoned profession, it is important that this distinguishing characteristic is not forgotten as you set new design trends and as you replace the pioneers who brought us to this point."
