I have learned so much in graphics class. Every time I look at a website, flyer, menu, etc., I notice the layout and design. I critically analyze the piece, and I take notice of the typefaces chosen and the gestalt principles applied. Before this class, I never considered how much work went into laying out the information we read. Now, not only do I have a new respect for every layout I see, I can also label the principles used and comment on the visual hierarchy.  I also learned so much about the Adobe programs that we used. I worked with photoshop a little bit before, but InDesign and Illustrator were totally foreign to me. Now, I am able to work all three programs, and I believe it will give me an edge in the world of public relations. I truly appreciate all I have learned throughout graphics class this semester.
