This class is one of several sections of  The Design Team in which students design materials to advertise and support City Tech’s graduation commencement. This project will conclude on 10/13, but there will be a final presentation in mid-November, during which some or all of your teams will present your designs to the City Tech President, Dean, and Provost. They will decide which designs will be used for commencement.
