In addition to completing the last 2-4 pieces toward their exit portfolio students will address vital activities surrounding applying for employment and graduate school. Students will create "packets" including resumes, cover letters, post cards, slides, and portfolio CDs that can be used directly out of school for various calls and job listings.
