Kudos from Cameron Moll

I wanted to share with you all an article Cameron Moll has written today discussing his experiences as a “Worn traveler”. Though Cameron has been busy travelling, attending & speaking at conferences, and with his many other obligations he’s taken a moment to remark on the outstanding work of our students. As you all are aware, he’s recently linked to our work in Flickr and he has now written the following about Valencia’s graphics program:

“On a final note, I’ve been in Florida twice the last month alone, and both times I’ve been close to Orlando, narrowly missing one of the state’s best kept secrets for aspiring graphic designers. Valencia Community College runs, from what I can tell, an impressive program for graphic design students, led by Amanda Kern and other talented professors. Recent student work seems to speak for itself: I, II, III, and IV.”

Many of you might know that we have a great reputation locally, however, we have lacked exposure outside of the central Florida area. That is until now. We are very proud and thrilled to share such great feedback with our students. Keep up the great work!

Thanks again Cameron for the kudos! We’ll keep our fingers crossed that we can convince you to come speak to our students in between your busy schedule sometime in the near future.

    It is uber awesome! I am very proud to be in the graphics program :). That gives me more inspiration to code the sites for graphics better and faster.

    That's fantastic! Of course, we know we are the best kept secret of graphic design but nice when someone else takes the time to mention. Oh, yeah it doesn't take long to get forgetten does it? Gone one-half a summer and I'm no longer the head of the program :-(. Just kidding. Amanda, Kristy and Dennis have been doing a great job while I'm on vacation but don't get too excited kiddos. I'll be back!

    lol... I really hope Barbara is having a good rest, which it is well deserved, because between the labbies and the awesome teachers we have everything is under control...or at least we try to keep it that way! It has surely being a productive summer for this program. Happy times!

    Who could ask for more! People are usually ashamed by going to Community Colleges. Unlike them, I am very proud of my school. We prove each year that we ARE the best while competing side by side against Universites. "Universites ain't got nothin' on US!"
