Second year Interior Design students at the University of Oklahoma Christopher C. Gibbs College of Architecture, led by faculty members Mia Kile and Rick Skaggs, are partnering with the National African American Jazz Legacy Museum on a design project.
To kick off the project, Rosetta Funches, co-founder of the museum, joined by museum board members, recently presented memories of Oklahoma City, its history and the origins of jazz to the class. The students are now developing interior design proposals for the new museum, which will be built in Oklahoma City.
The Christopher C. Gibbs College of Architecture announces John Harris as Associate Dean for Research ad interim, effective Aug. 25, 2026, until the permanent position is filled.
Gibbs College is pleased to announce the 2026 Gibbs College Faculty & Staff Awards recipients. These individuals were recognized by Dean Butzer during the Gibbs College Back to School Meeting and will be honored during the Celebration Banquet in October. They were nominated by their colleagues via an open nomination process.
Telesis, the Gibbs College of Architecture’s student journal, has been awarded a grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts to support its next two issues, “Pause” (Volume IX) and “React” (Volume X).
