At last Monday's Urban Lab session, some students spoke briefly about three aspects of community development that they had focused recent attention on - ecological, commerical, and housing.
On the walls of the Holy Rosary school gym, they had taped up diagrams and drawings to outline some of their ideas. The ecological segment had a series of drawing to show the impact that their ideas could have over certain periods of time - year 5, year 10, etc. I may not be remembering those specific labels correctly. The one label that I do remember quite clearly was "year 100."
I was stunned by the fact that these students would think that far into the future. Stunned and delighted.
I mean, who thinks like that?
