dc.description.abstract	"Bennington College Projects, Bennington, Vt. 1967 to the present. Ward's work for this small, progressive liberal arts school in Vermont includes the science building and lecture hall, visual and performing arts building, remodeling of the student union, site and master planning plus miscellaneous assignments and preliminary design for three dormitories. Discussions go back as far as 1964. Funding difficulties also delayed construction. Ward joined in a rigorous evaluation of the science and art programs before any design was undertaken. The faculty program statements which emerged are, in his opinion, the best he has ever encountered . With so many good professionals available. why did the college select Ward, an architect without a building portfolio at the time? "They've always had a predilection for mavericks," Ward says wryly. Bennington, however. was aware of and impressed with his contributions to SCSD. When they chose him, they chose well."	en_US
