OU Water Day was held November 16, 2018, as an all-day event for OU faculty and statewide water professionals to network, learn about needs and capabilities, and potentially start new collaborations. The day included 20+ flash talks from both groups, as well as poster presentations and networking opportunities.
Architecture professor Lee Fithian was invited to present her research regarding the resources the discipline of architecture can provide to the built environment. Fithian’s flash talk was entitled “Water and Naturalized Environments in Architecture.”
