My girl did it!
Andrea worked so hard this semester that I rarely heard from her except from seeing her on my caller id at 2am.
Bruce and I went to support and see her work, which was
amazing. I love how she was always able to marry excellent design concepts with issues relevant to African American culture.

I enjoyed seeing my favorite toughest, most feared instructors.
Joe Scorsone and Alice Drueding who drilled typography into my head
Paul Sheriff, who makes Simon Cowell sound like a grade school teacher, but he gets you on track.

With Mom
I'm so glad she made it through, and her work (and the work of her classmates) was inspiring. I can't believe her level of creativity.
