Talking Stick - March/April 2015 - 56
The First-Generation Host Family Program matches students with local
host families who help the students adjust to their new lives as college
freshmen. The host families' support helps students make a smooth
transition into campus life at Angelo State.
Fortunately, many times initial
conflicts are resolved before move-in
day. As an example, the Guzman family
assumed that their daughter Georgina
would live at home and commute to
the local university during her first year.
But their oldest child had other plans.
One week before school started, she
announced, "I'm gonna move out, and
I need a ride." As Georgina puts it, she
"had to take matters in [her] own hands"
because she knew that her parents
would never allow her to live on campus
if they had time to think about it. Once
the initial shock wore off, Georgina's
parents embraced the college move-in
experience. They, along with her three
siblings and her boyfriend, helped
Georgina settle in to a crowded high-rise
building. The family stayed on campus
the whole day.

As a designer of campus life projects, John's work
emphasizes understanding and becoming fluent in each
campus's sense of place. Texas Tech University's recently
completed West Campus Village, a design-build project
with Whiting-Turner and BGK Architects, provides a
community for 455 upper-division and graduate students
with space for study, gatherings, and dining within a setting
of landscaped courtyards and public art. The project
extends Texas Tech's reverence of Spanish Renaissancestyled architecture and has opened to rave reviews.
