Class of 07

The 2007 Massey University calendar has begun. I showed up bright and early - to an empty classroom. It helps to read your timetable properly. No harm done, I realised my mistake and made a dramatic entrance to the five fourth year students in my Design Business class. This contrasted with the bulging Advertising class a couple of hours later. It should be an interesting year. Huge emphasis on creativity this year. Less theory. Hope to see some exciting work. My feeling is that an educational context should leave plenty of wriggle room for 'out there' ideas.
