Class on Friday
Hey guys,
I pushed myself too hard giving lectures in all my classes on Thursday and have completely lost my voice to strep now. Stuck to a notepad and blogger:( Please use tomorrow as a work day - you don't need to come into the lab since I will be taking the doctor's orders more seriously and getting bedrest. Make sure that you have 5 logo / logotypes in your folder for Monday, contract, bid spec, etc. You will need to have printed out roughs of all your items and job approvals to go with them that need to be signed off on to get credit for your job folder. Remember that critique is coming fast and furious on this one so please use your work day wisely. See you on Monday and congrats to Kayla for her scholarship! So wish I could have been there to present it to you:) Have a good weekend guys!

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your help with the balloon piece this morning. Hopefully you had fun doing it. For Wednesday please rework and finalize this last rough that you worked on. It needs to be popping / printed out at a printer (use university services...they are your friends) / bound. This is the last rough before the final. They will be checked. Wednesday will be a work day so be sure to bring all your supplies to make your books. The final of your pop up book you will make two copies. One to keep and one to give to the star center. Your presentation will be Monday, April 16th. More details on that to come. Also do not forget to bring your contacts for the month of March. Sorry it has taken this long to get to them. Bring printed off e'mail back and forth.

Hi guys,
Good work on the Torch today. On Monday you need to have your rough translated to the final dimensions / covered with a hard cover / translated onto the computer. If you didn't finish up your second rough please finish that. We will be changing up our Monday meeting. We will meet at the kiln yard in the art department instead of the DMS lab. The art department is doing a campus wide project - called His Banner Over Me is Love. It is close a thousand balloons that are going to stretch across campus. We are going to help with this project and then toward the end of the session look over your roughs. So please make sure to meet there and not the DMS lab at 8 am on Monday. Have a wonderful Easter weekend!
