Is Design Too Important To Be Left Only To Designers?

Article link: Is Design Too Important To Be Left Only To Designers?

In this article, Bruce says that Ann Burdick, chair of the Media Design Program at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, points out that "business, the humanities and even physics (at MIT) as embracing design and using it without much input from designers" and that "discussions about Design as a Literacy, Design as a Discipline, Design as a Way of Knowing were under way at various universities—without much input from designers or design educators."

This doesn't really bother me as much as it seemed to bother Ann. I think designers use design, but I'm sure other people can come up with great designs that designers can then use and modify.
