Congrats SJSU!!

Wow! San Jose State came in top five out of 820 different student entries from 230 schools. Check out the news story here. (This was filmed during a press conference in our class when the announcement was made. It was an interesting and exciting experience, and a great way to see first hand what it is all about.) The top five student entires came from University of Wisconsin, Elon University in North Carolina, Washington University in St. Louis, and Savannah College of Art and Design...which I am also a former student of. Yay SCAD! But of course, not as much as Yay SJSU!!! What an accomplishment for our three students, not too shabby for a resume either. To get an ad aired during the superbowl costs about $2.6 million for 30 seconds. This is Huge for a college student! They have an incredibly hectic schedule to follow, but I am sure they are having fun while doing it. We don't know what the storyboards or the ideas are yet, very hush hush, but it will be great when we can finally hear the concepts and even more exciting to know that we won...notice I didn't say if. We have the best students, faculty and ideas in the country!! Duh! GO SJSU!! If you want to follow the story more closely you can check out the Chevy Ad Challenge blog, or the faculty advisor's blog.
