Cynthia Peterson was my first Architecture prof, at CCNY in 1980. Her design classes were always more fun and less predictable than typical studios, ranging from Central Park kite festivals to constructing mood lamps or designing house boats. And occasionally buildings for real or fictitious site. She was terrific, always upbeat and enthusiastic.
