What began as drafts, doubts, and discipline has now become a distinction. You didn't just passed an exam - you proved your rigor, resilience, and perspective. Those late night grinds and tiresome nights now bear the inks of pride. The January 2026 ALE welcomed nearly two thousand new architects into the field serving as a silent but powerful reminder that excellence is built patiently, and earned thoughtfully.

In what better way to celebrate National Architecture Month than to partake in the Architecture Department's Skills Olympics. This year shows the undying passion of Architecture students in improving and mastering their skills, as well as discovering new techniques. From recalling and sharing their past knowledge during the Quiz Bowl to exercising their analytical thinking and problem solving skills in Ultimate Design. Let us not forget when the students participated in the Pencil and Graphite, and Watercolor contests to reaquaint themselves with their manual rendering. Of course, there was also the Structural Conceptualization, 3D Digital Rendering, Digital Art, and many more exciting contests. All of these represent the significance and advantage of hosting the Skills Olympics.

What's more is that the students not only challenged their skills, they had the opportunity to form connections with their team. Clans were created for this sole purpose, consisting of members ranging from the eager freshmen, to the learned fifth years. It is astounding to see every individual grow into better versions of themselves. To feel confident in every stroke they make. To voice out their ideas and opinions resectfullty without fear. And the most important part of it all, everyone has made a memory that they could cherish for a very long time.
