Game Art & Design Club

Hey n00b & Veteran Gadlings!

I hope everyone had an awesome 1st week! Anyway, there are a couple
things going around the school that look pretty exciting for the next
week. First off, on Tuesday, Lucas Film/Arts will be in the gallery
from 5-6. They will be here to talk about their exciting internship
program: The Jedi Academy! This is a very good chance to get
information on how to apply and what is expected from you to join
their ranks.

Also, further in the week, we are having club fair! W00T! Come one and
all to see the various clubs, but also to support GAD club (we get $$$
for the club if we have an awesome table >:D). If you have any ideas,
or would like to help out, send me an email ASAP (we need people to
make sweet goodies to swoon over students). Last but not least, GAD
Lan is officially on Fridays for this quarter in the basement.

One last thing, GAD Club has a blog. Crazy I know, but we have one and
if you miss one of these emails (because I know you will ^_^) I will
also post this exact message on the blog with maybe a couple other
things. At least visit so you know it does exist.

See ya!

Just in case you haven’t checked it out yet .

Also, remember to ask the Career Services folk (especially Denise) for more internship opportunities.

Did anyone remember the Tokyo Game Show was this weekend? Interestingly enough, there wasn’t any huge surprises that weren’t anticipated (at least for me). If you want more on the event, visit http://www.g4tv.com/tgs2008/
