Welcome!


Thank you for visiting the Official Blog Spot for AIS Alum. This Blog was created for the AIS Alum to keep in contact with one another. We encourage you to share this web address with other graduates from the ID Department at AIS that you may still be in contact with. Here we will be able to share what is going on in our careers, announce and coordinate upcoming events and continue networking while we are out in the field.

My name is Dante and as your moderator I will maintain the blog and modify it based on the groups input. Uwe Bergk (the brainchild of this blog) will also be an active participant in this group so that we may give him updates on how well our education prepared us for work in the industry.

Breaking the "ice"

Post your comments and stories here... we are a great resource for one another and the goal for this page is to have access to this information as well as keep in touch with fellow Alumni. Everyone who is a member has the ability to author and edit their own posts.

To the side of your screen in the upper right hand corner we have an Alumni Photo Book that i will update with your photos. Please e-mail your member photo to me for use in the album ( mail to Dantewilkins@gmail.com) as well as any Blog spot related requests and suggestions.

I am excited to see what all of us have to share!

    Hi Dante: Thanks so much for doing this so quickly. I am so happy we are starting this. I have shared over 30 AIS alumni emails with Dante. The blog cold become something really useful for all of us.
    Would it be possible to post photos or personal profiles?

    Thank you Uwe & Dante, I wasn't into blogging until now and it's going to show. Are we going to make this like an informative need to know for the future of AI design academia? I have some ideas about what can help future graduates strengthen their design foundation. Is this for all AIS illums or just ID'ers. For now check out:
    http://www.greenbuild365.org

    Play these videos in classes. Use the youth poetry performed at greenbuild in sustainability classes. Keep teaching with the philosophical approach AIS is famous for, it yields a competitive advantage in the workplace. I found out early that anyone can learn to use a computer but very few can create far reaching concepts.

    Great, Great idea,

    Thank you both!
