This interactive timeline recounts the history of the program, highlights impactful projects and events, and celebrates the accomplishments of our alumni, faculty, and students. It is a way to celebrate the BIG impact that our little program has had on community development in Memphis and beyond – through the research and policy work of faculty members, the community-engaged work of our courses, the inspiration and innovation of our diverse students, and the leadership of our alumni.;xNLx;;xNLx;We need your help to improve the timeline.;xNLx;;xNLx;This tool is intended to be a living work-in-progress, and can easily be modified and expanded to represent the collective memory of our UofM Planning family. This was created by faculty and alumni volunteers who scoured old accreditation self-study reports, annual reports, and document archives, and spoke with former faculty members. Despite those efforts, there is no doubt that we have missed many important projects, highlights, and accomplishments. (50 years is a long time!) ;xNLx;;xNLx;A slide at the end of the timeline includes a form where you can suggest additions and upload images and other media. (Surely someone has some old pics of Gene Pearson!) We'll keep adding to the timeline, so check back often!;xNLx;;xNLx;Learn more about our 50th Anniversary celebration and events here:;xNLx;[https://www.memphis.edu/planning/](https://www.memphis.edu/planning/);xNLx;;xNLx;Note: You can control how you view the timeline. On the bottom left of the screen you can choose 2d or 3d view. And the "wrench" button on the bottom right allows you to adjust view types and spacing. When viewing on a computer or tablet, we think the default 2d view is best. When viewing on a phone, it is best to hold your phone in the horizontal position.
