These land grant programs offered the working class a practical and affordable educa- tion that joined the liberal arts with the applied sciences of forestry, agriculture, and horticul- ture. In contrast, the Ivy League model of M.I.T. and Harvard validated Frederick Law Olmsted and Charles Eliot’s position that the artistic discipline of landscape architecture belonged in architecture and not in life sciences. The inaugural OSU program, although based in the College of Agriculture, bore the influence of East Coast design thinking in the leadership of A.D. Taylor (1883–1951). A graduate and faculty of the landscape program at Cornell, Taylor worked in the Boston office of Warren Manning (a disciple of Olmsted and Eliot) before starting his own practice in Cleveland in 1914. At OSU, Taylor collaborated with P. H. Elwood, also a graduate of Cornell, to establish a curriculum combining instruction in horticulture with es- tate design and city planning. Taylor’s exten- sive knowledge of plants and construction and tight connection to the ASLA gave the program a focus on professional practice that endured Looking back on 100 years of landscape architecture at The Ohio State University allows us to record our progress, question our understanding of landscape architecture as a discipline, and shape our vision for the future. We are taking stock and looking forward. LARCH @ OSU is of two cultures—arts and sciences. Starting humbly with 5 students in the College of Agriculture in 1915, the program moved to the Department of Fine Arts in 1927, to join architecture in the Department of Architec- ture and Landscape Architecture ten years after. In a sense, these early shifts in affiliation and degree granting—BS in Horticulture, BFA, and BLA—reflect the discipline’s own search for pro- fessional identity. In the second half of the 19th century, the rising awareness of the residential garden and the need for better living conditions in cities had fueled the demand for landscape ar- chitects and professional education. Courses in garden design appeared in agricultural colleges as early as 1863 to be followed by an explosion of landscape degree programs in land grant universities at the onset of the 20th century: Massachusetts Agricultural College, Penn State, in the following decades. Charles R. Sutton’s 1941 Ohio Roadside short course and the long-lasting influence of Jot Carpenter on the technology curriculum from 1972 to 2000, and his professional advocacy are still felt today. In the past 15 years the Glimcher Distinguished Visiting Professorship has continued to expand the students’ perspective on professional practice with the participation of a wide range of renowned landscape architects, from Ken Smith to Peter Walker, and Michel Desvigne to Jennifer Guthrie and Shannon Nichol. OSU’s reputation of training landscape archi- tecture students with solid professional skills is one to be respected and expanded. Both the timeline and the exhibition of archival work (1915–1995) highlight stages in the evolution of the program, from the study of Italian villa gardens, to the layout of estates and later subdivisions, camp grounds, and roads, to the study of regional watersheds in Ohio. As shown in the exhibition of contemporary work, design studios now acknowledge the third wave of environmentalism and the leading role played by landscape architects on multidisciplinary teams. Exploring the themes of ecological ur- banism and landscape infrastructure, projects such as Bigger Darby and the Provisional Ur- ban Forest speak to the global and the local. The early dichotomy spelled out by Olmsted and Eliot, between architecture and agricul- ture, and between art and technique, has evolved in a third way. Our program—situat- ed in an interdisciplinary school within the college of engineering of a land-grant univer- sity—is poised to develop a unique dialogue between design and science. Leveraging the potential of the OSU Discovery Theme of Food Production and Security and building on the agricultural heritage of landscape architecture (Olmsted was an experimental farmer, after all), we can further our commitment to the land, spatial ecology, and empirical research. Dorothée Imbert Professor, Hubert C. Schmidt ‘38 Chair Landscape Architecture Section Head It is fascinating to review the 100-year history of landscape architecture at OSU. As this exhibition documents, our program has tracked the discipline from its dual affiliation with agriculture and architecture, to its central contributions to the environmental movement, to its pivotal role in reimagining productive landscapes and urban infrastructure. Given this rich legacy, it is not surprising that we have gained recognition as one of the premier professional programs in the country. This legacy continues today, as another generation of Knowlton professors and students challenge accepted norms, combining cultural breadth with technical depth. Indeed, our task is no less demanding than it was 100 years ago, as the art and science of landscape architecture must offer the vision to inhabit a dynamic plan- et with grace and intelligence.
