When Miriam Gusevich, an associate professor of architecture and planning at the Catholic University of America, entered an open international architecture competition in Ukraine this spring, she felt a personal connection to the project.
The competition was for the design of a memorial at Babi Yar, the site of one of the deadliest massacres of the Holocaust. During World War II, members of Ms. Gusevich's family were killed in a concentration camp in neighboring Poland.
"You're contributing to a larger purpose," she says about entering the competition. "I knew that it would be difficult emotionally."
