Robert Geddes (1923 - 2023)


I am deeply sad for his loss.
With academic sponsorship by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology- History, Theory and Criticism of Architecture, I am also thankful to him to share with me his first-hand experience and knowledge to uncover a historic threshold at the Princeton University-School of Architecture. You can watch my presentation at Massachusetts Institute of Technology on my advanced academic research: 

• Ekincioglu, M. (speaker), 2017, “The Grand Flirtation: Feminist Operation of Architecture at Princeton University in the 1960s - the 1970s", Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Woman and Gender Studies Program, Intellectual Forum Series, Cambridge, MA, US, October 19th.

See for the record of my one-hour presentation (on "the beginning of co-education at the Princeton University-School of Architecture" under academic leadership of Professor Geddes, the first dean of this school in 1968) at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
