The Illinois Institute of Technology's Institute of Design and UChicago Medicine are collaborating on a project to design a new way of delivering care. A two-year effort will focus on health care delivery on the South Side, bringing together the institute's Equitable Healthcare Lab with UChicago Medicine's Center for Healthcare Delivery Science & Innovation.

With the restoration of Carman Hall in August of 2022, Illinois Institute of Technology capped a three-year, $70 million effort to revive a trio of deteriorated, Mies van der Rohe–designed residential buildings. “There’s such a huge variety,” says architect Dirk Denison of the structures on the campus Mies planned in 1941. “And these three buildings are (among) the only tall buildings.” Two of them, Cunningham Hall and George J. Kacek Hall, shuttered more than a decade ago. Carman Hall remained open, but a third of its apartments were vacant, says Bruce Watts, the school’s vice president for administration.

Carly Kocurek, who teaches in the Game Design and Experiential Media program at ������̳, says suburbs operate in the realm of “perceived beigeness” making it hard to imagine them as settings for the kinds of stories and worlds we see most often in open world games.

The Copyright Office’s position that AI-generated content is excluded from copyright protection is wrong, writes Edward Lee, professor a Chicago-Kent College of Law and the author of “Creators Take Control: How NFTs Revolutionize Art, Business, and Entertainment.” It misunderstands authorship and ignores the copyright clause’s goal of promoting “progress” by offering authors incentives to create new works, including with new technologies.

“What we are trying to do is break the silos of the colleges and create what we call tech-enabled curriculum in every part of the (institution) … which will widen availability of students who choose to explore those futuristic careers,” says Mallik Sundharam, vice president for enrollment management and student affairs.

UChicago Medicine's Center for Healthcare Delivery Science and Innovation entered into a multiyear agreement with ������̳'s Institute of Design to use human-centered design to improve the patient experience and reduce inequities. ������̳'s Institute of Design's Equitable Healthcare Lab will provide UChicago Medicine with insights on how to implement new healthcare tools, provide training for employees and create more opportunities for more collaboration.

Eldon Ham, an adjunct faculty member a Chicago-Kent College of Law who teaches about sports, law and justice, writes about how William Wrigley Jr. was instrumental in the beginning of baseball broadcasting.

Today, we are witnessing the greatest disruption to the art world since cubism — along with a similar backlash. Underlying this disruption is a technology called a non-fungible token, or NFT, a computer program that establishes a new type of virtual ownership not just for digital artworks but also for anything that can be owned.

Starting in August 2023, students will be able to earn a Master of Business Administration, Master of Science in Data Science, Master of Science in Information Technology, and Bachelor of Information Technology on Coursera's online learning platform, for a cost of less than $20,000 each.

“If (people) are feeling increased levels of stress, (it’s important) that they back off before it becomes a major challenge,” says Psychology Professor Patrick Corrigan. “A change in anything should be paid attention to. If you find yourself eating more or less, crying more, sleeping more or less, or in conflict more, these could all be signs that something may be going on.”
