Loeb was directing a Harvard GSD campaign themed around “Crisis: The chaos in our cities, the loss of control over our environment, the urgent need for leadership for the future.” Loeb saw the American city in disarray and believed Harvard could help. He imagined bringing highly promising innovators of the built and natural environment to the GSD for one year, challenging them to do more and do better, convinced they would return to their work with new ideas and energy. Now in its fifth decade, the extraordinary, transformative learning experience that is the Loeb Fellowship continues to have a critical role to play in preparing leaders to address these urgent concerns and instigate important future advances through their work in the built and natural environment.More information on the Loeb Fellowship, including how to apply, visit the Loeb Fellowship website.Read the full post on Bustler
