Architecture dean Lerup to step down after 15 years

After 15 years at Rice, Dean of Architecture Lars Lerup announced he will be leaving his position June 30. He said he plans to primarily focus on his research at the Rice Building Institute, though he will continue to lecture occasionally at the architecture school. Associate Dean of Architecture John Casbarian said Lerup's decision to leave his position was not a surprise to the faculty.
