Principal Adam Kushner reunites with some fellow graduates of his from the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Filled with both alumni and new students alike, this gathering was to celebrate and discuss the importance behind the institute’s Italian Studies program which allows students to travel through the city of Rome and greater Italy as they examine its architectural development, engage in Italian language and culture courses and deepen their understanding of Roman architecture and the role it played in the development of Western culture and building design.

Students are encouraged to take back what they learned from their travels in Italy and use them to continue the legacy of this influence in the development of new architectural works back in the States.
