Individual Meetings for Project 3: The Grid Planned for April 11

On Monday we will have a work day - you should  plan to work the entire day in class. In addition to this, I will plan to conduct one-on-one meetings to discuss your GRID projects. As a class, I feel as though many important design concepts are still lacking with regards to working with grids. Because this is the case, I will push your final project 4 due dates up to April 18 - with the expectation that your work will be exceptionally better because you have more time to refine, review, proof read, examine, and analyze your own work. 

Remaining semester schedule:

April 11 - Work day Project 4 / Individual meetings Project 3 Review
April 13 - Work day Project 4
April 18 - Project 4 Due @ 11am
April 20 - Movie Day + Type Quiz Review
April 25 - Type Quiz + Turn in Final Digital Archive
