Phillips Exeter Academy LIVE!

Certainly one of my favorites. Although I started architecture school 5 years after Kahn’s death, going to Penn still gave me a heavy dose of Kahn influence. To really know more about Kahn, everyone should see the film My Architect ,which I already posted about here.

I made a pilgrimage to Exeter while in architecture school, but haven’t digitized those slides (I have a LOT of slides). One of my classmates went to school at Exeter, and told us the story of a prank where students tossed a dummy off a balcony, and two more students, lying in wait, ran out, picked up the dummy, put it on a stretcher, and ran out the building with it. Probably too much security to do that today.
