Eleven, or Twenty Percent. A total of Seventy. First and Number 1, among 120, is called what? Well, what's the word? Want to lie about it?


I asked the question about the number of "Registered" Architects in Australia on www.google.com tonight.  I found this answer:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_architects

The page says about 20-27% of the Architecture profession are women there, but, there are other numbers lower - 11% or 18% approx. 

Where I come from, there are no female Architects, and people have never heard of registration, still, in this day and age.  This is the state of Missouri.

In the entire state, I counted, maybe 5 or so years ago, a total of 70 women licensed to practice in the state of Missouri.

I never bought a "Summa Cum Laude" or a "Cum Laude", or any other honor on myself, while a student at Kansas State University, 1978-1983.  That can be done, though.  I am telling you, here, that Katherine Bozoian, from Spanish Lake in north St.. Louis County, Mo., bought this honor upon herself, in 1983.  She had help from the Head of the Architecture Dept., named Eugene Kremer, FAIA, who was licensed in the state of New York.  I don't know if he was ever licensed in Kansas.  If so, I don't know of any of his built works, if there were any there, or, are there, now.  She has continued help from the system, because Stephen A. Nutt, V.P. of Programs at the N.C.A.R.B., overseeing licensure and continuing education for all Architects in the U.S., was a classmate of mine and Kathy's, in 1981, 1982, and 1983.  I never knew Katherine Bozoian, RA, before my Senior year, which was 1981.  She states, however, on her www.linkedin.com page, that she was a student at KSU, starting in 1979.  This is a lie.  She transferred to K-State, as a Junior, and, after finishing at least 3 full years in an Architectural Studies program, with Interior Design emphasis, at the University of Missouri-Columbia.  She was allowed in, by Eugene Kremer, FAIA.  What can I say about Architecture today.  I saw women leave, as a Freshman, and, as a Sophomore.  I was told, by Eugene Kremer, FAIA, my Junior year, to transfer to another design studio, when I mentioned to him that my female partner in my first semester design studio was not doing most of the work - I was, and was tired of doing that, and didn't want to do that another, second semester my Junior year.  I was on scholarship/grant from the St. Louis Chapter AIA, and had part-time work in my all-girls dorm on campus, as a front desk receptionist/switchboard operator.  I took a full load of 20 credit hours my first semester Junior year, with this woman as a partner in my design studio, who told me she was living with someone, of a different race, on the Army base outside of Manhattan.  I got tired of hearing sexual stories as excuses, and I had never seen her before at KSU, in my previous two years.  He transferred me to a different design studio, without asking me any more questions.  I was thought deficient by others at KSU's Dept. of Architecture after this happened.  Let me say - a transfer for Katherine Bozoian put her at the top, while a transfer for me put me down???  What kind of money did K-State have for Katherine Bozoian?  The girl screamed discrimination somewhere, with a family Attorney talking for her.  I'm not CIA or FBI or some Secret Service law official, but, how can that be respectable?  How can that be anything to carry the world today?  I see Union Labor, and Labor Party involvement, in her actions and her honor at KSU.  I see illegal drugs given an OK.  I see Gay-Lesbian bisexual behavior more than any sexual discrimination near her actions.  Something was warped in her belief system, in the state system, in the law system.  I never had any law supporting me that would give me time off to have a baby, when I entered Architecture.  I have worked with many men who are slow to pass the Architectural exam, but, when they get married and have a baby, they are given money to support a family.  I have gotten fired, or demoted, and cut in salary.  I have been expected to do all the work, with software on a computer, while the man or men sit there, doing nothing, with a "good excuse and reason" of that they don't know how to use the software.  But, their salary is sufficient to buy a computer and the software and a book to teach themselves, whereas, mine never has been.  In fact, most of my blog posts on www.google.com are here because I have never had sufficient income to pay my student  loans from graduate study in the new Computer Graphics at Pratt Institute, from 1988-1990.  I worked while a student there, too.  But, the reason I was there, in the first place, is that Eugene Kremer, FAIA, told me he had lived near Pratt Institute, while living in New York.  So, I applied to that school.  I was seeking licensure, at that time, and, building a N.C.A.R.B. record.  I knew I had this "lie" from Bozoian, Nutt, and, another woman named Sue Yoakum, RA, near me.  Little did I know, how close that "lie" would be for me for the rest of my life.  I tried, but, I needed money.  What is licensure?  To me, today, licensure is a lie.  Licensure is just collecting private information and using that information for your own benefit - that is what the N.C.A.R.B. is doing, and, asking for payment in doing that action.  I know they may be reading this today or sometime later.  I'm not a loud, rude person.  I'm not a dangerous, wild woman.  I just need some money to buy food, have a house, a car, money for bills.  Why subject a woman to every test and call that the N.C.A.R.B., or "Summa Cum Laude", or legal representation?  A lie is a lie.  A lie is the essence of mental illness.  How sane is a "Nutt", "Bozo"?  Sue Yoakum, RA, Attorney, was so sick at this "discrimination" cry from Kathy Bozoian, that she went on to get her own law degree, so, she can represent herself.  That's sick, and mentally ill.

This is part of a project that I started in Graduate School, at Pratt Institute, as part of Communications Design class, in Spring, 1989, under Prof. Alisa Zamir.  The project was granted a patent:  http://www.freshpatents.com/Lamp-lite-dt20080626ptan20080151552.php
