"As a graphic design major, I found Dr. Richard Buchanan's lecture very compelling and applicable. He helped me realize that the knowledge and skills I have acquired in my specific department don't have to be limited to to that particular area of study, but that I can use my curiosity and philosophy of design thinking to help craft innovative solutions in any industry. I look forward to using this design thinking mentality to better comprehend how human beings interact and identify not only with our products and services, but with one another."
-Nikki Welty, BFA in Graphic Design (Senior)
