IIDA TXOK TULSA CITY CENTER April 2019 Spring is an exciting part of the year for the IIDA Texas Oklahoma Chapter. As many city centers are planning, and holding, their annual events, our chapter is simultaneously uniteing our student, industry and professional members in order to provide professional development opportunity and exposure to their future design community. Two years ago, the Texas Oklahoma Chapter began the transition of relocating (and rebranding) IIDA Student Conference from Houston and SHIFTing it to Dallas in order to, hopefully, become more accessible to our student members. The event has grown significantly the past five years, as we have worked to expand our reach to students outside our chapter. This year’s event, in February, saw us max out on attendance for the second year in a row! Students from the Texas and Oklahoma campus centers were exposed to more than 300 professionals, along with 200 design students, from 16 states and 38 design programs, during the three-day event. However, it wasn’t just students coming together for this event. Council members from various city centers came together to ensure the success of the event. The annual campus center round table was held for an intimate discussion between IIDA headquarters, city center student liaisons, campus center leaders, along with myself and we look forward to continue assisting our campus centers in their individual, and collective, needs. Next year will be 20 years of IIDA SHIFT and we’re excited to meet what new talent will soon be entering our community. Shannon Oliveira, IIDA IIDA Texas Oklahoma Chapter VP of Campus Centers
