In my time as a student representative for Student Union I regularly spoke with faculty and even was able to attend faculty meetings to discuss topics important to my peers. One such topic was introducing more professional prepartaion into the program. After coordinating stop motion studio tours with faculty Steven Chiodo, I wanted to have programming that catered to 2d animation, and how alumni of the program found their foothold with their experimental practice's in the "real world".

A lot of the documentation of all the behind the scenes process was lost sadly.

 I created a survey to see what questions or practices where within the program. From there I worked with Steven Chiodo and Jamie Wolfe to create a guest list of people who would be best at responding to the questions from students. It was also important to me that this was also a networking moment where alumni could speak with current students and connect.
