Connecting the Masses

March 5, 2009 March 5, 2009 I am currently a student at CDIABU, and this will be my first blog with some of the experiences I have been through. I feel as though so far, CDIA is everything I expected and wanted out of a college. I am a month into the program and I am already learning, getting hands-on experience, and networking as much as possible. I am very thankful to be learning from industry professionals who have been through a lot of what I’m sure everyone will be going through. It’s a good time to ask lots of questions and soak up every bit of information. I plan to take as much as I can out of the program and continue to stay in touch with everyone as much as possible. I think CDIA has changed my life in a lot of ways. Before applying, I had no idea this school existed and hadn't found the perfect fit for me. Now I have, and I will always be thankful to CDIA for being so close to me and just simply existing. As for the networking side of things, a friend of mine by the name of Jon Berkowitz at CDIA, as well as myself and others, have begun working to make the “social scene” at school more involved and to try to get students in other programs to network and collaborate more. I think so far its working out well. It needs time to grow seeing how it’s really the first time anyone has done this as far as I know. The goal is to bring people together to make a name for the school and show people that CDIA is a hidden jewel. We have a social networking group on Facebook and on Twitter anyone can join, and as of now, everyone tries to meet every Friday at the restaurant Margaritas in Waltham on Moody Street. Everyone is welcome to come. Please feel free to contact me about anything, or join the networking groups and please get involved and make CDIA a well known name in the world of media and colleges!
