I'm doing my final project on students being able to receive a form of federal aid to help them with their tuition. So, I decided to interpret this information by using a flow chart. There are many styles when it comes to creating a flow chart (as seen above). Some of them have different shapes, color, arrows, and ect. But, I believe the hardest part of making a flow chart is how to give it a visual hierarchy. But, anyways... Let me know what you think of the above charts. Are they any good?

For those who missed it!!!

I thought the Stimulatte event was quite interesting. I enjoyed conversing with other fellow graphic designers about our experiences freelancing and our issues with school. I got there kind of late, so I didn't get the privilege to directly speak with April Greiman, but heard some of the later chatter. Oh, what also was quite enjoyable was the free drink for attending the event.
I think the members of Westwood College were the ones who hosted the Stimulatte, and I thank them for doing so. I collected many new contacts this way and got a chance to network with people I would never have had the chance to if I didn't go. There are many great designers from different schools who handle their work in their portfolio in an interesting way.A good example of someone who showed me his portfolio was an AIGA member. He had his work portable-ready in his laptop. I believe it was one of those miniature Acer laptops that are becoming more popular with college students. As he was showing it to me, he would explain the idea behind his work. The way he formatted the portfolio was very unusual. He had all his work vertically line-up, which made it very hard to look at because you would have to scroll down. This would cut some of the pieces off, and distract me from the main focus. But, his portfolio was definitely something I would keep in mind as I develop my own portfolio and get ready to graduate.
