Architecture
(Continued from page 1)
up with innovative ideas,” Hickey
said. M.D. Anderson may not use all
the students’ proposals, but their
ideas are important, he said.
In fact, Hickey will include some
student ideas in an article he is writ
ing with Dr. George Mann, director
of the health facilities research pro
gram in the College of Architecture.
“Medicine is changing very fast
and its impact on architecture is am
azing,” Mann said. The students
tried to create pleasing spaces for
cancer patients, he said.
“That’s who we’re designing this
for,” he said.
Mary Ann Newman, assistant vite
president for planning at M.D. An
derson, said A&M architecture stu
dents made the atmosphere of the
cancer treatment facility softer and
less intimidating.
“(We want to make the hospital)
more than concrete and streets,”
Newman said.
Newman said the students con
centrated on conceptual, rather than
detailed architectural, design. For
example, students developed cli
mate-controlled pedestrian walk
ways and visitor centers to guide
people around the medical center.
Newman said students took prin
ciples from a Houston architectural
firm that worked with M.D. Ander
son and used them to solve different
problems.
Kirton said the students gave
M.D. Anderson new perspectives tor
its care facility.
“The hospital has its own architec
ture staff,” he said. “They just used
us to get new ideas.”
But M.D. Anderson and its cancer
atients are not the only ones who
eneFited from this design project.
The architecture students gamed
medical, architectural and personal
insights.
Alvarez said this project was an
eye-opening experience for him.
“It was great being able to work
with doctors and architects,” he said.
Peggy Jenschke, a senior architec
ture major from Fredericksburg,
said she got an idea of what cancer
really is.
“(The center) would be a lot fas
ter,” she said. “(Patients would not)
have to waste (their) whole day.”
Kirton said the students saw can
cer patients and gave full-scale pre
sentations to M.D. Anderson doctors
that addressed their problems.
“We presented our projects in
front of top doctors there,” he said.
“We had their full attention.
“They’re not stupid people by any
means.”
Eldridge said she was impressed
with the research the architecture
students did on the projects’ medical
aspects. She said they brought fresh
knowledge to the design problems.
M.D. Anderson was pleased with
the results. Hickey said the architec
tural students realized the necessity
of planning for the future.
Germany
(Continued from page 1)
“We. are now standing at the start of
a new period in European and Ger
man history, a period that points be
yond the status quo or the hitherto
political structures in Europe,” Kohl
told Parliament.
“We are prepared ... to develop
confederative structures between
the two states in Germany in order
to create a federation, a federal state
in Germany.”
A federation is a union of states
with a central government; a confed
eration is an alliance of independent
nations for a common purpose.
Kohl also said reunification must
be “bedded in the pan-European
process and in East-West relations.
The future structure of Germany
must fit into the whole architecture
of Europe as a whole.”
He said his proposal could only be
carried out if East Germany holds
free elections, as it has promised.
The chancellor proposed creation
of joint governmental and parlia
mentary committees for “permanent
consultation” between the Ger
man ys.
He also suggested such commit
tees to deal with economic, environ
mental, cultural and scientific mat
ters, and he said they could be set up
soon after free elections in East Ger
many.
Kohl said West Germany is pre
pared to offer “concrete assistance”
to embattled East Germany, where it
is urgently needed.
But he said massive assistance
would be contingent on East Ger
many “irreversibly” setting into mo
tion “a fundamental change of its
political and economic system.”
