Establish national grants for basic design research.
Design Research is an internationally recognizable field with learned societies and journals, yet no U.S. government granting body supports basic design research. The National Endowment for the Arts provides grants for Artistic Excellence in Design. While NEA grants encompass the support of design processes, they do not support basic design research. The National Science Foundation and National Endowment for the Arts do not fund design at all.
Over the past 50 years, design has developed as a coherent discipline of study with its own history, methodologies, and “ways of knowing”. Basic research into the processes of designing takes three forms: (1) the traditional investigations of design history and aesthetics, (2) the more experimental study of materials, technologies, and approaches that generate new design processes; and (3) the explorations of the created objects and systems that impact culture, society, and the environment.
The support of basic design research will lead to innovations that increase the U.S.’s leadership in knowledge and intellectual property.
For in all adversity of fortune the worst sort of smisery is to have been happy.

Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own time.

sss all the wonderful gifts that we've been given, one of the greatest is freedom.
As much as we may deny it we are free in this life. We are free in what we think, free in what we feel, free in what we say, and free in what we do. Yes, life may give us some very difficult circumstances at times, but we are still free in how we choose to react to them.
Many people in this life deny their freedom. They sit back in their misery and blame it on their parents, or their childhood, their health, or their financial problems. They never once stand up and take responsibility for their own lives and their own happiness.
The truth is that we've been given the power to choose love and joy in our lives no matter what happens to us. No one has ever been or will ever be strong enough to take our freedom away from us.

hhh As a design researcher, I know that thoughtful, participant-driven design has a powerful, positive impact on society.
The new Congress and Obama Administration should act immediately on these proposals. The U.S. National Design Policy Initiative and the Redesigning America's Future: ten policy proposals will help move our country forward in an efficient, positive, and inclusive manner.
