As part of their exposure to all of MIAD’s majors, freshmen participated in a Majors Dialogue October 6 – an evening in which they experienced the intense creativity and energy taking place in each of the academic areas.
Activities in the majors and minors included a brand identification game in the Communications Design area, a sketching demonstration on a Wacom tablet in 
Industrial Design, a group self-portrait in Painting and an “Erasure” workshop in the Writing minor where students took a page from a book and created a new narrative.
With their faculty, students are currently taking a more sustained look at, and discussion of, what is happening in the majors by looking at facilities, student work and actual classes in progress.
