Congratulations to our 2024 Forster Ndubisi Professional Service Award winner: M. Elen Deming, DDes, FASLA, FCELA.

The Forster Ndubisi Professional Service Award was created in 2022 by the Council of Educators in Landscape Architecture (CELA) and the Landscape Architecture Foundation (LAF) to honor an individual who has provided exceptional service to both organizations to significantly advance the discipline of landscape architecture. The award is named after former Texas A&M University landscape architecture professor and department head Forster Ndubisi, a longtime thought leader who served on the Board of Directors of both organizations and was given the inaugural award posthumously.
