fauland (L)

Well, i'm going to start this post telling you that this isn't my first year here in FAU, so I've seen some changes. But the most important I think it's the new plan of study specially in architecture. This is the first year that the university impart it and the impression I have by now of this is a nice one. Why? because for students of first year is a lighter career, I mean, it's divided in two semesters (that doesn't make it easier, but the students can work better in workshop because don't have to care on another five courses). But I don't know what's gonna happen the next year, or at the future.

We already know that the faculty is small for all the students, so obviously we need more classrooms and some spaces conditioned for work in workshop.

And well, if the number of students keep growing, I think that would be interesting have more teachers, specially in workshop. Think about it, if we had more teachers, workshop may have fewer students and that implies deeper corrections of any project. Also, new teachers means new ways to impart the knowledge of architecture. We all know that some teachers stay in the past, and some teachers keep them square minds. That's not right for us.

On the other hand, I practice volleyball and the condition of the sport field it's shameful. We have to go to another sport field to practice, and I think that can not happen in the University of Chile. I mean, we can not came here only for study, we have to keep our mind sometimes outside workshop, and personally sports help me in that way. We don't have gym, and we can see that. The health of students it's awful specially our mind. Healthy body it's a healthy mind and in our case, we can see a lot of classmates sick, with depression and another things.

We don't have a green space. I would like to see in my faculty more grass that concrete.

But by all this things we have to move out, because here in our campus, have little space. I don't know if I can do that, because I love the ubication,  it's very central and also I love this place. FAU it's something magical to me, and I know that we have old infraestructure, but I really love our blocks and all our faculty. So, It would be perfect if we could do all this things staying here hahaha.
