highly recommended event! get your developing portfolio reviewed by professional designers.
this is for aiga members only. student membership is $50 for a year and i believe you can sign up for both aiga and this event at the same time.
registration and more info can be found here.
to get your extra credit [a .1 grade point bump on your final grade], simply let me know you went and a couple of things you got out of the experience.

this even has been re-scheduled for Tue, Feb 5, 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM
aiga kc is hosting a “design and taxes” event at 5:30 on feb 5 at their crossroads space. attendance with a brief description to the class about what you learned will get you a .1 grade point bump on your final grade.
for reference on the 4-point scale, a B ranges from 2.9 to 3.1 and B+ is from 3.2 to 3.4. each “grade zone” is only .3 points. a .1 bump is enough to round you up to another half-grade level if you are on the edge. three extra credit options in this class is a solid half-letter grade.
an ongoing list. links forthcoming. please contribute in the comments if you think of something.
