Dan Weissman, current 2G architecture student, has been featured in an article in the Nov/Dec 2008 issue of Architectural Lighting. Described as a “young visionary,” Weissman joined the high-profile Cambridge, Massachusetts-based lighting design firm Lam Partners in 2005. Soon after, he was recruited by Lam to assist teaching a core lighting course at the Boston Architectural College (BAC), which led to his realization that “a studio-like setting would be the best way to convey to students the phenomenological aspects of working with light…So Weissman did what anyone with energy and a touch of hubris would do: He designed his own series of ambitious lighting courses for the BAC, one on daylighting and one on electric lighting.” Coursework was made possible by a grant from the Nuckolls Fund for Lighting Education, which Weissman and the BAC were awarded in the Spring 2007.
