...controversy with the APA ended after Kain supplied the organization with additional information about the department's program. "If they wanted to look at the content of the curriculum, they should have looked at the whole thing and not just the core," Kain says, adding, "But we gave them more information about the coverage of different topics within the core curriculum itself and now they agree that we meet the criteria." Kain argues that the APA believed the department did not meet the teaching staff criteria because it counted a faculty member as a planner only if he held...
Also, some CRP students fear their shift to the Kennedy School will close them off from training in physical design. Philip Wall, a first-year student in CRP, says the transfer "takes too much of the physical planning element out of the curriculum for those who don't have a previous design degree."

In fact, only in the unpopular senior exams were students ever asked to draw on broadly-based scholarship and integrate the fields of theological learning...
Rupp proposed realigning the school's curriculum in September, in his first major proposal as dean of the school. "I thought the benefit of this early momentum would out-weigh the cost of having an initial proposal that had not emerged from the deliberations of faculty committees," Rupp says. Nonetheless, the faculty added another entire dimension to his proposal during its annual January retreat...
