What fun - Thanks for having me today! For more information on @AIA_COTE: http://t.co/FEsnWHqLNJ #aiachat

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

#aiachat Great point. The network is so strong and the people are so engaged. This is huge. https://t.co/B4a0KoNGii

Q8: How could COTE serve you or your firm better? #aiachat

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@AECdaily #aiachat That's architectural relevancy if I've ever heard it.

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@SnarkitectDC @AIA_COTE #aiachat with a path for everything to be net-positive.

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@alove_aia #aiachat This gets to the cultural issues that have been mentioned. Breadth of values as well as clarity of outcomes.

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@payettepeople #aiachat Yes indeed. I am not certain what this actually means myself.

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@alove_aia #aiachat So this suggestion is that COTE should help define these terms? That would be great.

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

#aiachat This is big ... reaching into the architecture schools in a meaningful way. https://t.co/EhTUaMr6UB

Q7: In the context of mainstreamed green, what is COTE’s role in defining terms & setting priorities for the profession & the AIA? #aiachat

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@KiraGould #aiachat Keep your eyes on the AIA Convention sessions. This will be covered!

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

#aiachat Yes, many corporations are exploring sustainability, yet this has yet to happen in architecture. https://t.co/QmFstHUWZQ

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

that is an interesting approach https://t.co/OTD5SX2rK5

A5 No AIA awards for wasteful projects! #aiachat

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@alove_aia #aiachat and understanding the relationship of cost to the project's success will be interesting as well.

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

Q6: COTE’s awards program is unique, after all this time: How can Top Ten gain influence? #aiachat

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@SnarkitectDC #aiachat It seems to me that it is also an issue of professional values. We do what clients want & what wins awards.

[AIA COTE @AIA_COTE]

F5: in the early ‘00s COTE updated the Top Ten Measures & helped craft two AIA positions on sustainability #aiachat

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@RandEkman #aiachat Q5 BIG AUDACIOUS IDEAS ARE MOST WELCOME.

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

Q5: How can COTE advocate for the true synthesis of sustainability & design? #aiachat

[Rand Ekman @RandEkman]

@IanMerker #aiachat Excellent point! Making it operational to the AIA would be big!
