Please bring the following: Your entire project should be about 80% completed with only minor adjustments necessary. I should really get a sense of how this will look at completion (minus your final paper).

2011 GRDS Sophomore Class

2011 GRDS Sophomore Class LOVE Graphic Design

2011 GRDS Capstone Class

2011 GRDS Capstone Class REALLY LOVE Graphic Design

Hey EVERYONE in ALL CLASSES! I updated the pages for Intro to GD, DSII, and PPI. All schedules are up to date. Now you’ll know exactly what we’ll be doing these last few weeks of classes. The last few weeks of classes?!! Ahhhhhhh!!!!

Hopefully this video will help you guys print back to back while I’m away. The video is a little cheesy… and my voice sounds weird, but ENJOY! *Be patient, it may take a moment to load.

As you know we don’t have class from 3/14 to 3/18 (Spring Break) or 3/21 to 3/25 (Melissa in Paris).

I have updated the individual class pages above with information on what is expected when I get back on 3/28.

I will not be available via email from Tuesday, March 15 to Thursday, March 24. Feel free to send me stuff during this time. I will start responding to emails upon my return on Friday, March 25.

Here is the lab schedule for the week of March 21.
