Magazine names UA Prof Master of the Southwest

Phoenix Home & Garden Magazine has named Warren Jones, a professor in the UA School of Landscape Architecture, one of its 2004 Masters of the Southwest.

Jones has been teaching at the UA since 1967, trained two generations of landscape architects, introduced new plants to the industry, expanded the UA's plant collection and created demonstration gardens.

Jones planted and tested hundreds of species on the UA campus to determine their adaptability for urban landscape use. The campus is a showcase for 400 tree species and more than 5,000 trees. It also serves as an outdoor classroom for students and faculty.

In recognition of its extensive plant collection and educational focus, the UA Campus Arboretum was inducted into the American Association of Botanical Gardens and Arboreta in September 2002, a privilege extended to only a small percentage of universities and colleges.

Arizona State Museum gets permanent director Hartman H. Lomawaima has been appointed as director of the Arizona State Museum. Lomawaima became interim director for the museum in August 2002, having previously served as associate director since 1994.

Lomawaima, a member of the Hopi tribe, previously served as a senior administrative officer at the Hearst Museum of Anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley. He is also an affiliate faculty professor in UA's American Indian Studies program.

In 2001, Lomawaima became a member of the National Museum of the American Indian's board of trustees, a part of the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. The museum is set to open in September.

Lomawaima's research specialty includes museum organization development with a focus on American Indian, Alaska Native and First Nation museums and heritage centers.

The Arizona State Museum, located on the UA campus, deals primarily with archaeology and ethology in the American Southwest and northern Mexico.
