Open Mic Night:
I guess I will share how I got to the program, then reflect on the class itself. My undergraduate degree is in marketing with a visual arts minor. The idea was to work for a branding department, but I hadn't narrowed down exactly what I wanted to do. In my last year there, I realized that I really enjoyed design, but it was too late to switch majors and I didn't want to get a second Bachelor's. After graduating, I struggled to find an entry level job that was in the right field, so before my loans kicked in, I accepted the first opportunity offered: a recruiter at Aerotek. I spent 1 1/2 years there, doing a job I really didn't enjoy without any path towards my ultimate goal. I made a very tough decision to quit and go to graduate school.
It was by far the best decision I have ever made and an invaluable, humbling experience.
Any who, I've learned the most through my peers during critiques and have had some eyeopening feedback from a few professors who I admire greatly.
