    I'm currently studying graphic design at uni and have to say I reckon I have learnt far more through working last year and part time this year than through my course itself.

    Everything seems to just be here's a brief, go do it... here's feedback. None of the general terminology is taught, especially so for print.

    • it seems you want a vocational school rather than uni. uni teaches ideas not stuff you can pick up from textbook.pr2
    • I feel it should be a mix of both though, whats the point in teaching all the ideas if a graduate is then going to leave uni not knowing what anyone is talking about.aanderton
    • ...uni not knowing what anyone is talking about.aanderton
    • yes, but you are still in school and know it... because you care, and no school can teach "care."pr2
    • awesome slogan: "university __ - we teach care"bjladams
    • The only reason I know it is because I've worked as a junior designer for a year before going though.aanderton
