The Gibbs College of Architecture would like to invite alumni who studied at OU during the Bruce Goff and Herb Greene era to participate in our American School reunion. This reunion is a chance to come and see all the work Gibbs College has been doing to recognize and honor the American School, while also allowing you, our American School alumni, to reconnect and share stories about your time at OU.

When: POSTPONED — New date TBD

The Bruce Goff Chair of Creative Architecture draws inspiration from the contextual, resourceful and experimental spirit of Bruce Goff’s work. Each year, talented practitioners and scholars are invited to the University of Oklahoma Christopher C.

Past lecturers include Brian Phillips, Odile Decq, Sheila Kennedy, Antoine Predock, Susan Szenasy, E.B. Min and many others.
