The Yale Daily News has noticed that the Yale School of Architecture, where first year students are required to take a class with New York Five member Peter Eisenman, isn't doing so badly when it comes to attracting Pritzker winners. Like this time a couple years ago: "[Instructors Frank] Gehry and [Richard] Meier were both teaching classes that spring, and their two friends [Thomas Mayne and Jean Nouvel] had joined them on the panel to critique their students' final projects." Gehry tells the paper "It’s important to de-mystify it so people know they’re not gods, they’re not starchitects...They're just human beings." [YDN, image via]
