College Report Card #1

“First semester of college is behind me.” I got Logan’s text after his portfolio review. He worked hard this term, but he liked the work. Drawing, Photoshop, and Design Thinking classes. Before we dropped him off in August, we explained which part of his tuition was his responsibility. Two scholarships covered that this semester, but they are tied to good grades. He knew he’d have to bring home the As or work part time. He did both. Four As and a 3.5 GPA for the first semester! Plus a work-study position within the Industrial Design department.

I think about the student he was in fifth grade and all the kids like him, square pegs in round holes. So much hangs on finding work that fits you, that matches your skills and personality. Keep it up!
