Mr. Patrick Rhodes

Associate Professor

Patrick Rhodes' work emphasizes social, economic and environmental design and has been awarded, published and exhibited widely. In 2001, he formed Project Locus, a nonprofit corporation, to design and build community structures in areas of need. Over the past decade, it has developed a successful model for community-based design, operating within the margins of society among populations that are extremely underserved. He teaches empirically toward developing students who are critical, socially engaged, lifelong learners.
