There was an old proverb I saw in my high school wall:
“The theoretical man knows why.
The practical man knows how.
The man who will lead must know why and how.”
Before joining the City College of Technology, I had on-the-job training as a practical man who knew “how” things work. I was just a self-taught graphic designer at that time. But I knew that I must know both “why” and “how” to excel in my career. I believe in lifelong learning, and I want to keep in touch with the latest design trends and technology. So, I came back to college to study again. I only have the senior project to complete for the next semester. I have met beautiful Professors and friends and also learned a lot in these four years.
