This book is a way for you to join them on at least part of the trip. Onramp, No. 3, is a collection of work by graduate and undergraduate students done in classes, studios, and workshops. As you explore the work in this book, you will find that there are many roads taken at SCI-Arc. But none the usual route.

ONRAMP is a catalog of diverse, compelling and unorthodox work being done by SCI-Arc students. This issue of ONRAMP reflects the messy vitality of our contemporary cultural moment and sets the stage for considering the sometimes conflicting, never static, and often messy array of perspectives on the current state of our discipline, where consensus is hard to come by and the status of the architecture Project is a subject of debate. Another Fine Mess is the rubric through which the plurality of voices, opinions and attitudes, and design work that makes up SCI-Arc presents itself publicly. The issue acts as a project review by considering not only "what we do?" bur more importantly "how did we do?" The issue is organized around three curated sections that are comprised of student projects from the 2011-2012 academic year, with accompanying texts by SCI-Arc faculty.
