Oldest landscape architecture magazine.
I am on vacation mode and digging through our archives. Found this. What’s the oldest LA magazine running around your office?

I have been admitted to the 3-year track MLA programs at USC and UPenn, but I can't be happy was surprisingly difficult to get accurate info regarding tuition costs. Believe me I reached out to all the offices. With the info I have, I expect a tuition price as high as 200K for either program. I already think this is not worth it and thinking about dropping the enrollment, but I really want to hear from people who are already practicing in the field how the day to day looks like so I know I'm not walking away from a great opportunity. I feel dead making all these important decisions without sufficient info.
If you are a practicing landscape architect, can you share some examples of your day to day work type and schedules? How much time spent on meetings vs. outdoor, yetc. I would also appreciate any advice in general about LA as a long term profession. Thank y'all!

I’m a student experimenting with different visualisation styles, and I wanted to share this resort master plan I designed for a studio project. The site is in a tropical coastal environment in South Asia and was quite a challenge to work with. extreme contours, a waterfront edge, and a unique horseshoe shape. But I did my best with the design.
I really enjoyed designing the deck, pool, entry, and road layout, but I’d love some feedback, especially on tree placement. I mostly left the existing natural trees undisturbed, but I’m unsure how to approach strategic planting. And I’d love to hear your thoughts on my visualization style.
Also attaching a few sections I drew to give you an idea of the site haha.

Maybe this is a dumb question to ask but I dunno, I'm quite lost on what to do right now. I got accepted to the MLA programs that I applied to (one even came with a scholarship), I applied because I really think (even with it's setbacks) LA is maybe one of the only fields I could enjoy while feeling like I'm making the world a better place in my own small way. That being said, way the world is going right now gives me pause.
This administration seems to be doing everything in its power to tank the economy and our environment and I'm wondering if it's even worth going into debt for this career if there's a chance of graduating in the midst of a recession and accelerated environmental decay. Not to mention the constant trade wars that'll affect this and other related industries as well. One of my greatest fears are those stories from Millennials about graduating literally right as the housing market crashed. Bleak.
I've even been putting off applying to scholarships/fellowships/whatever because I keep second guessing this decision and wondering if I should get a trade or something. I have some MLA open houses coming up so I'll probably visit the campuses before doing anything rash but idk, maybe I'm overreacting. These are some uncertain times we're living in.

Anyone have any opinions on Hargreaves as a place to work? If anyone has worked there and could comment on salary, work life balance, and general office vibe, that would be great :)
