  1. Well, the more and more I think about it the more I've been leaning towards arch as my major. I've been looking at UIC's and IIT's arch programs and both look pretty good. They're not top arch schools but I'd like to know what you guys know about the programs. I'd prob go with UIC's tho only because its cheaper. I've been to IIT before when I visited a cousin's friend and we went inside Crown Hall and it was incredible.

  2. ^ here are some polaroids for you than

  3. ^only SL f/w look i really liked

    yeah, nothing new posted about him on tumblr yet. Miss my boo.

    on his tfs thread it says he took a break and will make a comeback but he wasnt at any of the mens FWs... hopefully he'll make his comeback later in the year. i've known johannes since i first got into male models (around 09) and i deff want him around for a few more years.

  4. get into interactive design. Lots of mobile work out there.

    interactive design looks pretty cool, im not sure but i think i saw it as a career in computer science? i'm currently enrolled in an intro to CS class but yesterday i was thinking of dropping it because the main reason that i enrolled in the class was to hopefully spark some interest in me with CS but the class is only and intro class and most of it is just working with excel and doing databases (my teacher also said it would be pretty hard to fail the class so its deff not a challenging class and im worried im not gonna like it)... i did more research on CS yesterday and theres so many things you can do with it but I'm still not sure... and this indecisiveness is killing me.

    here's a pretty legit list of schools, most of which are considered "top tier": http://www.businessi...ls-2012-11?op=1

    AH+, i saw in the fonts thread that Columbia is the school you're considering transferring to? based on their website and student portfolios, it seems pretty average/mediocre. check out that list, cuz there's a few Chicago-based schools on there if you're tied down to that city

    edit: here's another, more global, list of design schools: http://images.busine...hools/index.htm

    hey man, thanks for trying to help me out an to everyone else on here too, thanks for the list also. i keep going back and forth on whether i should keep on with GD or just do something completely different like CS or some other career in the sciences, which Im mainly looking into rn. Like pointed out N-O-R-S-E, a strong portfolio could get me really far and beat all the odds when its comes to the GD unemployment rate but my main concern is the fear and not enough confidence that GD will be a profitable career for me. i've considered many other careers but their job outlooks and salaries are just plain horrible. i dont know weather to laugh or cry at my current situation.

  5. I was planning on transferring to another school and go into their graphic design program but I did my research on the job prospects of the career and it didn't look good at all. I read through various forums and they were all filled with people who could't find a job because of the over saturation of GDs in the field. I really want to do GD but I am completely terrified that after I graduate I will be unable to find a job and then be drowned with debt in student loans. It is something that I really want to do but I am just so disappointed that it is really not a good career to go into... I don't feel confident in taking a risk with so many people who are having difficulty making a living out of it. So anyone have any advice on what I should do? I am really lost.
