About this book

"To work over the long term, a great campus must "ennoble the past, enhance the present, and provide for the future by balancing continuity and change." This book will show you how to achieve these goals as you learn to integrate planning and design of campus buildings with their landscapes and sites; incorporate the latest technology and educational trends into your designs; and ensure that the campus will enjoy a synergistic relationship with the surrounding community. Among the subjects explored are how computerized libraries, changing physical education and recreational needs, and new alternative campus housing affect design; techniques of design rehabilitation, repair, and renovation of existing campuses; design strategies for instructional buildings, research facilities, libraries and information centers, sports facilities, campus housing, and more; how to integrate environmental, conservation, and aesthetic considerations within the same project; how to provide long-term durability and economy in operations, and meet project and construction budget targets; and PLUS fully illustrated case studies of the best in recent campus designs and redesigns - with in-depth analyses of why they work so well and how they achieve their goals."--BOOK JACKET.

She and her teammates, including best friend Vee Merino, have hit the top of the league by running fast, passing straight, and following the Soccer Sisters Code, a list of ten unbreakable rules that keep the game clean and the victories sweet. But when Colby Wrangle joins the Bombers, everything changes. Colby's got crazy soccer skills, dyed hair, fake tattoos, and tons of attitude. She's the coolest thing that Lily's ever seen-and on the field, she'll do anything to win. Off it, she'll do anything to have fun. Soon Lily is sneaking out, lying-and trying to remember what made soccer so beautiful to begin with. With a huge tournament in Montreal looming, she's got tough choices ahead.
