Welcome back... It's 2012!






The GCOM department is excited to begin a fresh, new semester. We hope you are too. 

The Mayans may think this year marks the end of the world, but we think it's still just the beginning, and it will be another great year in your design education. So brush our the cobwebs in your creative caps, put them on, and we'll see you in class!
