UAlbany GPSA visits Lake George, Albany Rural Cemetery Tour next
/The Geography & Planning Student Assocation (GPSA) at the University at Albany recently explored Lake George at its most recent event. The GPSA is a student organization in the PAB-accredited Master of Regional Planning program at UAlbany. It seeks to educate and involve the next generation of urban planners.
“We had an excellent turnout, and the presentations provided valuable insights into the ambitious plan to transform Lake George into a vibrant year-round community,” said GPSA Liaison Devendra Kanithi. “The enthusiasm and collaboration of community leaders and stakeholders were inspirational.”
The GPSA’s next event is a guided walking tour of Albany Rural Cemetery on April 24, 2024. It will include a demonstration of the Albany Rural Cemetery Explorer (ARCE) app which was developed in partnership with the University at Albany. In addition to UAlbany students, the program is open to members of the New York Upstate Chapter of the American Planning Association. For more information, contact the GPSA at GPSA@albany.edu.
