Some Fall 2019 Early Applicants get a small taste of campus life at IDEA School of Design
IDEA School of Design students and faculty welcomed some of our Fall 2019 (IDEA23) Early Applicants and their guests to Capilano University for a casual social on Thursday March 21, 2019.
We met in Arbutus Building, third floor, room 305 at 6:30 pm for a chance to introduce some of the incoming IDEA23 cohort to some faculty and enrolled second and third-year students.
Some of the incoming IDEA23 cohort and their guests meet our current students and faculty for a light meal before the new CapU musical, 9 to 5.
“The evening allowed us to welcome some of our early applicants, several months before they begin classes. We’re excited to have them share their future with us, and to introduce them to what awaits them at Cap.”
“I appreciate you taking the time out of your schedules to come out and meet some of the faculty and a few other current students. It was a treat for me to be able to say hello and give you a warm welcome. I hope you all have a great summer. We look forward to seeing you in September.”
“Welcome to IDEA! A new chapter in your life and a new way of thinking. I can honestly say as both a past student, industry designer and now instructor that the creative exposure you will gain here, will stay with you forever. We are excited to see the creative impact you will have on the world!”
“Beginning something new can bring up fear—mostly of the unknown. New beginnings can also open up a world of self-fulfillment. I’m excited for IDEA23, and thrilled to have met some of you at the IDEA23 Social last Thursday evening.”
Hot and cold appetizers added up to a light dinner followed by the new CapU musical “9 to 5” at the BlueShore Theatre on campus.
“9 to 5 the Musical, with music and lyrics by Dolly Parton and book by Patricia Resnick, is based on the seminal 1980 hit movie. Set in the late 1970s, this hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era is outrageous, thought-provoking, and even a bit romantic. Pushed to the boiling point, three female co-workers concoct a plan to get even with the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot they call their boss. In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy, and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy—giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains “otherwise engaged,” the women give their workplace a dream makeover, taking control of the company that had always kept them down. These three unlikely friends take control of their office and learn even in a man’s world, there’s nothing they can’t do.”
Late Admission Applicants for Fall 2019 must submit a portfolio by Wednesday, April 10th
