DESCRIPTION:
 The School of Planning, Design and Construction

 \n
 The SPDC Industry 
 Seminar Series consists of lectures and presentations 
 by invited speakers who are industry 
 leaders in the Built Environment profession. 
 These seminars will take place twice a semester 
 and will be followed by a reception and 
 informal get together with SPDC students and 
 attendees. Series topics include the latest 
 developments and innovations in the field, along 
 with success stories from the speakers. Many 
 of the speakers will be alumni of the SPDC 
 constituent programs: Construction Management, 
 Interior Design, Landscape Architecture and 
 Urban & Regional Planning. Joseph Maguire, 
 President and CEO of Wolverine Development 
 Corporation, and Society of Environmentally 
 Responsible facilities (SERF), is serving as 
 the facilitator of the Series.\n
 \n
 According 
 to Dr. Matt Syal, Professor in the SPDC Construction 
 Management Program and Series Coordinator, 
 "This series will be a tremendous 
 asset for the SPDC students and faculty, because 
 it will expose them to the latest developments 
 in Built Environment through the activities 
 of industry leaders. This inaugural lecture 
 is especially exciting, because the speaker 
 is a Construction Management alumnus."\n
 \n
 This 
 event is free and open to the public. 
 The lecture will take place from 5pm-5:45pm 
 in Room 300 in the MSU Human Ecology Building.
