The evolving role of AIGA, the professional association for design
by Ric Grefe, Executive Director of AIGA

This is represented in AIGA's new mission statement: to advance designing as a professional craft, a strategic tool and a global cultural force.

Design education meets private R&D
Can advanced design education thrive in a corporate R&D model?
43% Yes. This framework leads to new learning outcomes for all.
16% No. Corporate support has too much influence on projects in this framework.
43% Maybe. But both Vulpinari and Sterling are right. You need the fundamentals first.
Totals shown may be more or less than 100% due to rounding
