Graphic Design Thesis Exhibition Spring 2020: All the Things

News release via graphic design students
Sixteen Mississippi State graphic design majors are prepared to show all of the skills and talents they have achieved in this year’s Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) senior graphic design exhibition.
“All the Things” showcases these seniors’ excellence of achieving powerful projects and the completion of studio work within the Mississippi State University Department of Art, the state’s largest undergraduate studio art program. The spring 2020 graphic design thesis students were under the instruction of Assistant Professor Claire Gipson.
What does "All the Things" mean exactly?
“All the Things” refers to the phrase that Professor Jamie Mixon says to her students to guide and help them to achieve their design goals and reach excellence.
“Motivation, self-discipline, and most of all, limitless potential! That’s what is means to ‘do all the things,’” said Suzy Marshall of Smithville.
“When we didn’t know where to go with a project, we would ask Professor Mixon for advice, and she would say ‘just do all the things.’ It may not make sense to others, but for us, it was always just what we needed to hear to finish out each project strong,” said Lexi Bennett of Columbus.
Due to MSU’s precautions of the CO-VID 19 pandemic, there will not be a physical exhibition for this year’s graduating seniors. However, a virtual gallery will be launched on April 16.
