We are currently interviewing alumni and friends of the OU Architecture program during Bruce Goff and Herb Greene’s tenure at the school. Recently, we had the pleasure of interviewing alumnus Chayo Frank (B.Arch ’67) at his home in Miami.

Once at OU, Chayo found that, with Goff, “you never made a mistake.”
