AUTHORS, AUDIENCES AND HISTORY
“Chicago Schools” is an international peer-reviewed graduate student symposium that explores the
iterplay between the individual and collective in the process of making history. The symposium,n
hosted by the IIT College of Architecture PhD Program in partnership with the Chicago Architecture
Biennial, will engage with and enhance the dialogue around the Biennial theme, “Make New History,”
by high- V lighting graduate student contributions in architecture, design, humanities, and architectural
and urban history. Papers may revisit past and present Chicago Schools – from Henry van Brunt’s
“School” and William James’ “Chicago School of Thought” to Sigfried  Giedion’s “Chicago School of
Architecture,” and beyond – as well as the emergence of new historiographic and architectural
traditions within a global context.
