Calling
all Fellows!
The AIA National Convention
is now a warm memory that saw the 2006 elevation of
82 AIA members to “Fellows”. The Pittsburgh
area Fellows have been working with the Chapter on a
mentoring process to encourage strong and worthy candidates
from our region. While individual efforts are always
welcome, we strongly encourage the utilization of the
insights and talents of the local fellows.
Elevation to Fellowship recognizes extraordinary
contributions to the profession and society in several
areas. The specific process, goals and criteria can
be reviewed at www.aia.org/awp_Fellowship. Candidates
are also encouraged to review the FAQ’s on the
website.
