Hmm, mentoring. (I should probably have cross-posted this to

to tackle. As we mentioned at the end of our Board Retreat minutes
from Nov 2007 (see , the Board at that time did not have the capacity
to tackle such a major initiative as "education". That's why we
asked people who

the good wishes. This good will and energy is just another reflection
of what makes this community is a special one.
I personally am in awe of what this community has accomplished in the
last few years. The discussion list, the L
A mentoring program would be huge. There are many talented and experienced
designers on this board, and many new entrants to the field. The juniors
have a lot to learn from the seniors, but the sheer size and maturity of
this list can make posting intimidating. I've heard of creating some other
the undergrad BFA program in New Media at Ryerson here in Toronto has
lots of IxD related stuff in it, although I don't think they really
make the association.
i've actually been trying to get in there to do a talk for their 4th
years students, we'll see how it goes.

Jack,
YES! YES! YES!
The only undergrad program I know of is a minor of IxD as part of
their Industrial Design program at SCAD.

I want to second Dan's congrats to the new board!
I also want to encourage people to see new opportunities for
volunteership around the world. Whenever there is change in
leadership, there comes new opportunities for engagement (or

It will be great to see new local leaders emerge,
And many thanks to the officers who have tirelessly dedicated their time and
efforts in the past!
