Rashida Ng, Chair of Undergraduate Architecture, weighs in on the future of the crit, a fixture of architectural education since its inception at the École des Beaux-Arts in France. She highlights the need for a thorough reassessment of architectural curricula and pedagogies to address contemporary demands for justice and equity. Ng emphasizes that traditional Beaux-Arts traditions, designed for a predominantly white, male, and wealthy group in the 19th century, are inadequate today. She underscores architecture's moral and ethical obligation to serve the public inclusively.
