IIDA

Our student chapter of IIDA is back in full swing with several events coming up! This Thursday (9.15) there will be a Kick Off Event from 7-8P in Justin Hall. Nichole Finke and Erin Hurd will be coming in from Kansas City to meet with both IAPD and Interior Design students to talk about IIDA as well as discuss upcoming events. There will be food and door prizes, and all students are welcome to attend regardless of previous membership. In addition to the Kick Off Event, Color+Couture is also underway. Meetings are on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8P. If you can make either of those days we would really appreciate your help! Another event to keep in mind is Design Wars on September 30th. More information will be given at the Kick Off Meeting on Thursday.
