Adobe is particularly interesting in seeing the portfolios of COMD students focused on graphic design but if advertising and web design mixed into your portfolio is fine also.

Please take advantage of this opportunity. If you are a junior or a senior, it will be most helpful to you for honing your portfolio for internships or first jobs upon graduation. If you have taken COMD 2400 and have your sophomore portfolio review ready, it is a great opportunity to get feedback on your work as you head into you upper level classes.
