Joseph Wisne (BA, Psychology, ’86) and Bridgette Mariea (BA, English, ’89) believe deeply in the importance of representation across the field of design.

“Design is often misunderstood to be a narrower discipline than it is,” Wisne said. “There’s enormous space to accommodate the full spectrum of human perspectives, backgrounds and skills.”

When he was in junior high school, Erwin Raphael ’89 received a package containing a scarlet and gray jersey from his aunt, who was then a student at Ohio State. Students were required to wear a uniform to school, and the administration rewarded them for donating to their senior class fund by granting them a casual dress day — so Raphael wore his new Archie Griffin jersey to school for his reward, never expecting to catch Buckeye fever.

“I had no idea how popular I would become,” he laughs. “I
