LSU design students to unveil concepts today

Students in Instructor John Campbell’s and Associate Professor Phillip Tebbutt’s Sophomore Studio and Junior Studio courses in the LSU School of Design will return to Franklin today to present their ideas at The Lamp Post.
The presentations mark the end of a semester-long project that the students undertook as a part of class requirements. This is the third time that the LSU School of Design has chosen Franklin for a course project.
“The ideas that the students will share do not represent what will happen to the space created by the demolition of the Center Theater,” Mayor Raymond Harris Jr. said. “However, it will be interesting to see what their visions for the space are. I am pretty sure the students were creative and threw caution—and finances—to the wind, which is what they should do when working on a class project if they want to pass the course. I am looking forward to viewing the projects and asking questions of the students.”
The public is invited to view the projects from 4-5:30 p.m. and the results will be announced between 5-6 p.m.
