Ricker Notes was originally a periodical for the School of Architecture, edited and published by students, who included feature articles, news, poetry, drawings, and book reviews. The title - “Ricker” - refers to Nathan Clifford Ricker, the first graduate of an architecture program in the United States in March of 1873. In 2018, Ricker Notes was brought back in the form of Ricker Report. The goal of Ricker Report is to connect architecture, engineering, and other disciplines while featuring students, alumni, and other talented professionals. Ricker Report is dedicated in the honor of Emeritus Professor James Warfield and Architeture Ricker Librarian, Chris Quinn. Their passion and loyalty to the Illinois School of Architecture, Ricker Library, and the University of Illinois continues to inspire students each day.
