    1. Corporations have taken note, and bathrooms have become the focus of this change

      This topic sentence explains how corporations are paving the road towards gender-neutral equality in the United States.

    2. “We don’t want this person in our bathroom.”

      It would be interesting to discuss the arguments for and against gender-neutral bathrooms.

    3. unisex

      Unisex: (especially of clothing or hairstyles) designed to be suitable for both sexes.

    4. science and technology

      How can science and technology be involved with someone trying to change their identity or gender?

    5. But today’s design landscape is still deeply rooted in Modernism, a movement shaped by a predominantly male perspective

      This is very accurate. Even though woman have more rights than before, men are still dominate this world and are considered of being more capable of than a woman.

    6. overhaul

      According to Marriam-Webster, overhaul meanso look at every part of (something) and repair or replace the parts that do not work http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/overhaul

    7. Of course, bathrooms are only part of the puzzle in addressing gender inclusivity in the office, but they are spaces that are sensitive to such personal issues.

      This topic sentence relates to the main topic of the essay because it includes another reason why it's so important to create a gender neutral environment.

    8. “There are five billion people in the world and five billion unique sexual identities.

      This was a deep and interesting thought to me. It made me think about how different each and everyone of us are different in so many ways.

    9. manifestations

      events showing ones sexuality

    10. androgyny

      Androgyny - The combination of both masculine and feminine characteristics or qualities that can be found in gender and sexual identity.

    11. In our post-gender world, masculine and feminine definitions are being switched and obscured.

      This is a topic sentence that summarizes all the aforementioned aspects of a changing world in relationship to gender and sex. Masculine and feminine definitions are being switched because women now do men "norms" and men now do women "norms", resulting in a lack of norms altogether.

    12. ancillary

      google definition of ancillary: "providing necessary support to the primary activities or operation of an organization, institution, industry, or system"

    13. sexual politics

      like to discuss: what does "sexual" politics mean? Is it politics relating to the sex of a person or can politics somehow become sexualized?

    14. Making people feel accommodated—whether it’s in a public space or office—parallels the bigger conversation about universal design.

      Making people feel accommodated is one of the United States biggest problems today. How do they deal with change when people are so used to a certain way of living and believing?

    15. essentially human phenomenon

      This is a great way to summarize the idea of our growing agender society. Certain things aren't gender specific but gender specificity isn't human.

    16. having safe places for anybody to function and do what they need to do, no matter who they are, should be our first step

      Yes. Literally yes.

    17. Annemiek van der Beek’s Primal Skin makeup line has been designed to be appealing to the male buyer

      In a way, this still perpetuates a gendered-society. Why does it have to be a makeup line specifically for males? Why can't it just be a makeup line that anyone can use? Granted, men can use every pre-exisiting makeup that women use now. We don't have to 'invite' them to this game with their own line so they can feel like they're not using 'feminine' products.

    18. feminism

      Feminism for the win! There is a small problem though, I believe, with using this concept to combat the 'dominate male world'. While feminism refers to the equality of the sexes, we do not know if the circumstances surrounding these male dominated areas actually include inequality. Maybe there are more males in the tech world because we aren't promoting technology jobs to girls. That doesn't involve feminism as a solution; that involves a deeper, more meaningful look at how we gender things in our society.

    19. predominantly male perspective

      This is a concept that comes up a lot within all subjects - politics, movies, etc. While the world is becoming a more gender-diversified place, men still dominate.

    20. Designers, who should focus a critical eye on society’s issues, need to work within this discourse and help promote acceptance and change.

      This is what 'they say'. Basically a thesis statement.

    1. bewildering.

      according to Marriam-Webster bewilder means to confuse (someone) very much. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/bewildering

    2. But it can also have a compulsory aspect — it’s a word that involves moving over to make room for other people, whether you want to or not.

      "move over" - makes it seem like it is an inconvenience for transgender people to need this change to happen

    1. permeable

      the word permeable means capable of being permeated : penetrable; especially : having pores or openings that permit liquids or gases to pass through according to the Marriam Webster dictionary http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/permeable

    2. It is this holistic view of a campus’ spatial patterning and the student’s relationship with the natural and built environment or its landscape that is capable of having an effect on student learning

      If this is so, then why is the majority of classrooms (if not all) inside? Wouldn't this actually be a distraction for the student in a learning environment? Since there is to many things happening around the student might not be concentrated.

    3. Today the campus open space still remains a significant center for teaching and learning for students in natural resources management, sustainability/ecology, agriculture, forestry, etc. and more recently, a focus on environmental education and sustainable practices

      This topic sentence relates to the essay because it depicts how the students need to interact with nature, and a whole community outside of classrooms. As mentioned, the student is not closed up in a room where ideas cannot be created or found. It is good for the student to get some learning outside of a classroom, especially if it has to do with their major.

    4. exposure to and interaction with nature has specific recovery effects on the human attentional system.

      Nature can be used to help students focus on their studies without the distractions of everyday life. It is a peaceful retreat that could soon go away due to a multitude of environmental factors.

    5. a functional and unifying elemen

      Physical space always has a purpose, similar to what we've read in City of Rhetoric. It goes beyond what is built there, but how it is viewed by people and how it can bring people together.

    6. Public areas and outdoor learning environments, including nature trails and ecological study areas, lend more opportunities for community interaction and social encounters that foster a sense of belonging, whereas quiet areas provide a place for students to refresh themselves, have a temporary escape, or quiet reflection, affording an enriched and enjoyable campus life
    7. A holistic approach to the built and natural campus spaces and their flexible and permeable boundaries in students’ campus experiences begins to acknowledge that student learning is dynamic, in which one’s ideas are enriched through structured classroom encounters including serendipitous unstructured non-classroom campus encounters

      Allowing for outdoor learning experiences can also enrich the classroom learning experience because people have different experiences outside the classroom and when a student can connect their outdoor learning experience with a conversation that is happening in a classroom is allows new perspectives to be heard in a classroom setting

    8. Such holistic landscapes can impact student learning because they provide multiple everyday opportunities for multi-sensorial, student-nature encounters– an important precursor to activating the attention restoration cycle
    9. A wide range of natural settings in and around a college campus can play a role in student learning and engagement. Perceived greenness of different campus spaces can influence students’ perceived restorativeness in them. Student perception of the surrounding campus landscape and the opportunities it offers for intentional and unintentional learning or recreational engagement/activity might influence their overall campus experience.
    10. By preserving and suitably integrating open spaces into the green infrastructure, universities can add value and quality to the campus environment by: forging a campus identity, creating a sense of community, curbing escalating campus density, serving social and recreational needs, providing environmental benefits, and facilitating fundraising and recruitment of both faculty and students

      To some people open spaces hold no meaning and are looked upon as something that needs to be developed but open spaces do have a purpose

    11. Well-designed and connected networks of indoor and open spaces on campuses can be key, yet typically overlooked catalysts, in student learning and a strong influence on students’ initial and longstanding experiences that promote a sense of belonging to the learning community

      The rhetoric of how campus spaces are designed the way they are

    12. Today’s university must be resilient spaces in which the learning environment encompasses more than technology upgrades, classroom additions, and its academic buildings – in fact, the entire campus, including its open spaces, must be perceived as a holistic learning space that provides a holistic learning experience

      This is important because it not enough to have high tech classroom and the most recent technology on campus but it is the environment of the entire campus space itself has to have learning environment feeling to it

    13. Questions of where, when, how, and with whom today’s college students learn, confront the traditional notions of how university spaces are designed and used for effectivenes

      This is a very interesting question that the author has ask.On our very own campus quad along with other study spots around campus we can see how this question is answered

    14. Student-nature interactions during study breaks help restore attention

      I would love to see if there have been any psychological studies involving this theory.

    15. Such holistic landscapes can impact student learning because they provide multiple everyday opportunities for multi-sensorial, student-nature encounters–

      I wonder if this is still true even with the rise of technology. Can we truly get a full, natural experience if we have our phones in hand? Even without technology, do many students even spend much free time outside besides the time it takes to walk from one building to another?

    16. like miniature cities

      I literally think about this concept every single time I'm on the AU campus. I feel like I'm in a mini city. You could live on campus and sustain yourself for quite some time. But, does this maybe create a kind of false sense in students? If they feel like they have all their basic needs, then what is their motivation to leave their immediate environment?

    17. ring road” type of plan, in which vehicles were mostly kept outside the pedestrian oriented campus core

      This is where we begin to see some environmental barriers built - possibly for the good?

    18. Many university founders desired to create an ideal community that was a place apart, secluded from city distraction but still open to the larger community

      So they technically wanted to secluded people on the campus from the community, but allow the community in? That seems kinda contradictory. What are the effects of this seclusion? Have college students become less secluded with the developments in transportation (shuttles, Metro, Uber, etc) and, therefore, more distracted?

    19. One way to examine this potential is to consider the entire campus with its buildings, roads and natural open spaces as a well-networked landscape system that supports student learning experiences.

      This connects back to what we have been talking about in regards to networks! I had never considered the idea of our campus being a network.

    20. Americans expect a university campus to look different than other places (

      I wonder why we expect campuses to look different. I kinda feel like we get this predisposed idea of what they are supposed to look like (from media or people we know) so that frames our expectations.

    21. Therefore, we propose that the natural landscape of a university campus is an attentional learning resource for its students.

      Thesis - they are basically arguing that the landscape of a campus has effects on how students learn (they need nature).

    22. American higher education institutions face unique twenty-first century changes and challenges in providing good, holistic learning spaces for the diverse and evolving needs of today’s college student.

      Strong opening statement - right to the point.

      "The process of varying one or more properties of a periodic waveform" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulation

    2. The tunnel epitomizes a neglected and undesirable location, yet in doing so, it provides a monastic refuge for its residents.

      Here, Neressova talks about how although for some people, a home could be considered as an actual physical building, to these people, it is described as where they may feel most safe and comfortable. This relates to City of Rhetoric, since in the novel, Fleming talks about the amount of discrimination in the Chicago area could make the people feel less comfortable, so they wouldn't consider it their home.

    3. cartography

      "the production of maps, including construction of projections, design, compilation, drafting, and reproduction" http://www.dictionary.com/browse/cartography

    4. paradox
    5. Without the abolition of capitalism or any oppressive order, the working-class continues to struggle within the boundaries imposed on them by the system in place.

      However, some forms of capitalism do provide means of escaping the system that has them in the lower class so they can rise to the top. It just takes a lot of hard work and going after every opportunity theoretically

    6. Defining oneself through such terms is flawed because such stability does not exist for either the homeless or the housed. The two are not a binary; rather, both encounter varying degrees of stability

      What I think the author is trying to say is that while a housed person does have a more stable shelter than a homeless person, It does not correlate with having a stable life. There are so many other factors in everyone's lives that affect different aspects so while one area may be better it does not mean that they all are. It is just more apparent for homeless people that they are in a very unstable condition. This would connect to the idea in Schindler's essay about how people perceive those who are poor as lesser or unstable so we try to separate them when in reality we are all dealing with the issues.

    7. Marxist

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Marx This is the guy who basically defined what it means to be a communist with his manifesto.

    8. The building of homes is also connected to the ability to self-identify, to represent the inner self through the personal and practical art of domestic architecture.

      This topic sentence looks back at the previous paragraph which discusses the demolition of homeless people's homes. The previous paragraph discusses how tearing the homes down, takes away the identity of the homeless person. This topic sentence then describes how the identity is related to the home, the reason being that, the way one builds a home speaks to a person's identity and what they like. She uses the word "also" to connect her two statements from different paragraphs.

    10. irst of all, men need a private room; they need a sink, they need a sanctuary—not in an open place where they’re ushered around by security guards.”

    11. The homeless are faced with a reality others avoid recognizing by divorcing themselves from urban space and by providing themselves with a false impression of control by obtaining material signs of wealth and security.

      Discuss this further in class

    12. eing pushed out of the tunnels is yet another step in controlling and prohibiting the use of public place that is not uncommon in urban areas.

      relates to Schindlers example that the behavior of the homelessness was controlled by way of a park bench with 3 seats and arm rests

    13. . Similar to how underground families and community responsibilities demonstrate a functioning way of life, the graffiti represents the presence of Humanities, which further demonstrates a completesociety.

      Discuss more: it is interesting how above ground, graffiti is seen as an eyesore that people are eager to get rid of, but below ground, it is enjoyed as something that reminds the ones living underground of the people in the outside world

    14. Homelessness is not truly the condition of not having a home. Because the homeless indeed have a home they build on the streets or in the tunnels, their condition is more accurately described as the absence of a stable home

      discuss further in class.

    15. Capitalism is devising new forms of struggle (state intervention in the market, growth in the distribution sector, fascist governments);

      connects to Fleming's argument

    16. In place of material production, which often exploits the environment, Morton’s interviewees use space as a creative guide. They build on space using found materials and personal items in ways that do not treat the environment as a commodity.

      discuss further in class.

    17. Like I say, I built everything up around the tunnel. Now I have to learn to build it around myself.”8 It is critical to appreciate that Morton introduces life in the tunnel not solely as a political portrait of poverty, but as a psychological space for its inhabitants

      I'd like to discuss this further, especially the political portrait of poverty part

    18. Because shelter is an essential part of sustaining oneself, identity is closely tied to one’s place of home, and because no place is guaranteed to be a permanent home, this aspect of identity is consistently fragile. The homeless community’s complete involvement in home building is also the process of understanding that a home is not permanent, yet the act of constructing these homes can define a person through his or her creative response to instability.

      I would like to address this further in class.

    19. t liberates him, yet his freedom is complicated by extreme isolation and poverty, which reveals that although a connection with the environment is conducive to human agency, it is not the systemic change that is necessary for the well-being of the working-class.

      This relates to David Fleming's claim that place, or environment is not everything because this writer says it is not "necessary for the well- being of the working class." It is good to have a place in the environment but its not essential.

      This statement is also very interesting because a tunnel is so confined and isolated, yet this man feels more liberated underground than he did when he was above ground in an open area.

    20. Urban exploration was not designed to exploit the city;

      This foreshadows what Schindler expresses in her "Architectural Exclusion: Discrimination and Segregation through Physical Design and Built Environment" when she explains how we should make a better use of the city, and make it benefit us in a positive way, not in a negative way where many people are excluded.

    21. To allow people to create their own personal space would be to give them the right to housing and to remove the damaging stereotypes of laziness and need for charity. If the homeless are seen as independent individuals, a system they can succeed in would have to replace the custom of sporadic and patronizing charity.
    22. opprobrium

    23. A tourist’s map will guide a visitor to theaters, restaurants, shopping centers, and museums. Meanwhile, every unprofitable location is treated as an abyss on traditional city maps.

      This is an important thought. There is so much more to a city then just locations designated good enough for tourists. Sometimes the best places to see when traveling are the ones you stumble upon by accident.

    24. chimerical
    25. Such pathetic illusions of privilege are linked to a general idea of happiness

      People aren't as happy as they seem. They're being manipulated by the media to think they want or need certain things, but in reality they may be missing out on the simple aspects of life.

    26. Seeing poverty exclusively as an economic problem takes its pervasiveness in humanity for granted because it ignores how the notion of homelessness can also be extended to talk about the mental state of refuge.

      Important idea. Poverty is not strictly an economic problem. It impacts millions of people mentally, and it is a strong political issue. It's very widespread, and does not only concern economics.

    27. have a home

      What does "home" mean?

    28. hey are not perceived as privileged, active observers who search for social meanings in the space they occupy

      Is this going to relate back to homelessness and a peoples' need for some-type-of security?

    29. The term “spectacle” is used to comment on society’s reliance on consumption through image promotion; therefore, in a society of the spectacle, individuals understand themselves by means of mass media.

      google definition: an event or scene regarded in terms of its visual impact.

    30. Because shelter is an essential part of sustaining oneself, identity is closely tied to one’s place of home, and because no place is guaranteed to be a permanent home, this aspect of identity is consistently fragile.

      Therefore, according to this article, our identity is never "stable"?

    31. Human relationships and contact are thoroughly influenced by images of commodities people are made to feel they need,

      In some ways, this reminds me of the Jenny Rice article. Individuals are comfortable in this environment of mass media telling them what they need or want to know. Nobody is challenging each other, or learning ideas that are outside of their comfort zone. People are relying on what they think is safe, but they have no other thoughts to contrast these ideas with.

    32. psychogeography

      “the study of the precise laws and specific effects of the geographical environment, consciously organized or not, on the emotions and behavior of individuals” http://www.psychogeography.co.uk/

    33. omeless demonstrate how urban space impacts the psyche and directs behavior.

      can be linked to Sarah Schindler's argument about the built environment and how it dictates human relations

    34. ephemeral

      "lasting a very short-time" : http://www.dictionary.com/browse/ephemeral

    35. such alertness to psychogeographical components of the drift separates the participant of the dérive from the casual wanderer

      A connection can me drawn between this idea of alerting the casual viewer to the deeper meaning of an area, and Rice's article about the underlying reasons architecture is constructed as it is.

    36. commodity fetishism

      Term popularized by Karl Marx to describe the religious like worship of material goods: https://www.cla.purdue.edu/english/theory/marxism/modules/marxfetishism.html

    37. For this reason, the displaced best represent the universal relationship between space and the splintered identity

      It's interesting to see the contrast of what society views as "home" between those who have many material possessions and those who have few, and how each group views this condition.

    38. Guy Debord

      According to Wikipedia, Guy Debord was a Marxist theorist from France. He wrote famous book called "The Society of the Spectacle" which sparked the Situationist International movement. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Debord

    39. A tourist’s map will guide a visitor to theaters, restaurants, shopping centers, and museums. Meanwhile, every unprofitable location is treated as an abyss on traditional city maps.

      This reminds me of Schindler and her ideas

    40. But when you find out who you are, you have to move out or the tunnel will eat you up like it ate me up for several years. Like I say, I built everything up around the tunnel. Now I have to learn to build it around myself.”

      Kind of correlates to our built environment project. It is all about conforming those constructions around us to fit the way in which we see it

    41. relationship between concentration on space and search for social justice.

      parallels with David Fleming's argument about space in chapter 1, part two of City of Rhetoric

    42. proletariat

      definition: workers or working-class people, regarded collectively (often used with reference to Marxism)

    43. relationship between concentration on space and search for social justice.

      Interesting, what does space have to do with social justice?

    44. The fragility of home and identity is universal, but with the homeless population, the vulnerability is far more apparent.

      This is an interesting claim because she says that all homes are fragile and unstable, which speaks to both the condition of the outside of the home and the inside of the home. The home life, with its relationships can be just as complicated as the life of a person without a home. The only difference is that the fragility of a homeless person can be seen, thus making them more vulnerable

    47. Homelessness is not truly the condition of not having a home. Because the homeless indeed have a home they build on the streets or in the tunnels, their condition is more accurately described as the absence of a stable home.

      this brings new insight on what it really means to be homeless that many of us don't perceive.

    48. omeless demonstrate how urban space impacts the psyche and directs behavior.

      can be tied to how Schindler argues that architecture dictates human behavior.

    49. The demolition of homes represents a robbing of identity.
    50. he homeless are faced with a reality others avoid recognizing by divorcing themselves from urban space and by providing themselves with a false impression of control by obtaining material signs of wealth and security

      This idea is similar to Schindler's idea. Although we all are vulnerable, people segregate themselves by wealth and leave city spaces to hid the fact that they are just like the 'homeless' people

    51. paradox
    52. The absolute darkness of the tunnel prevents danger from entering it, which explains how it is possible to have the highest feeling of safety in a place that is perceived as most dangerous

      Interesting how darkness can actually provide safety

    53. The tunnel’snot bad. The tunnel’s a good place if you want to find out who you are. But when you find out who you are, you have to move out or the tunnel will eat you up like it ate me up for several years. Like I say, I built everything up around the tunnel. Now I have to learn to build it around myself.”8

      What do you think he means when he says " Now I have to learn to build [the tunnel] around myself?

    54. self-representational architecture is a visualization of human connection to space.

      How does self-representational architecture affect society and the social aspect of it?

    55. Seeking out peace in the tunnel by expecting fear of the unknown to prevent criminals from following the tunnel dwellers partially defines the psychological relationship the inhabitants have with space.

      What exactly is an inhabitants fear with space?

    56. The homeless community’s complete involvement in home building is also the process of understanding that a home is not permanent, yet the act of constructing these homes can define a person through his or her creative response to instability.

      What is the parallel between a creative response and the feeling of homelessness?

    59. he homeless community’s complete involvement in home building is also the process of understanding that a home is not permanent, yet the act of constructing these homes can define a person through his or her creative response to instability.

      interesting idea - different perspective than Schindler's architectural exclusion. permanence vs. impermanence

    60. They are their homes from the very beginning; they are their homes because they physically create them and emotionally invest in the process of home building.
    61. You may drive by here and see that they are shabby, but I think that if you look again you see this person took the time to build a place that could be comfortable for himself. If you saw it up close, you could see that we’d turned it into a home. I’ve come to find out that it puts you more in touch with your spirit, too, because you realize it’s not always about the money; it’s really about getting an idea of who you are...The person who will take the time to build for himself is the person who still has an interest in himself.

      Home being your identity

    62. The homeless do not claim that they have only what is absolutely necessary, but they do not use nature as embellishment symbolizing wealth
    63. The importance of being allowed to self-identify has been neglected when it comes to the discussion of homelessness.

    67. The tunnel responds to space as the product of society by taking in the residents who have been failed by that society

      I find the symbolic meaning of why homeless people live in the tunnel very interesting

    68. residents’ choice to live underground demonstrates that the social problems above ground have forced them into an alternate sphere.

    75. Homelessness is not truly the condition of not having a home. Because the homeless indeed have a home they build on the streets or in the tunnels, their condition is more accurately described as the absence of a stable home.

      This brings a point about the misconceptions many of us have about homelessness.

    76. A tourist’s map will guide a visitor to theaters, restaurants, shopping centers, and museums. Meanwhile, every unprofitable location is treated as an abyss on traditional city maps.

      This point is definitely relevant within today's cities. People visiting tend to focus on the spectacle of the 'attractions' and don't appreciate the simple neighborhoods or places not on a map. There's little exploring if you don't live in that particular city. (connecting to why we're doing this project - getting out into less traveled parts of the city)

    77. twentieth century Marxist ideas developed by the Situationist International.

    78. Because shelter is an essential part of sustaining oneself, identity is closely tied to one’s place of home, and because no place is guaranteed to be a permanent home, this aspect of identity is consistently fragile.

      This is a super interesting point. There is almost no stable network between humans and their dwellings. Also, how much does our housing define us within our society?

    1. Aria! works smoothly by knowing which pieces of red tape can (and should) be bypassed in order to be productive.
