My brother founded this group at Purdue University Calumet, and is looking to provide them with a hands on version of what this site entails.

Giving students a chance to gain exposer to a market, to get involved in this “Company” of people, who are working together to achieve a common goal. He’s looking for followers and mentors alike so please check it out. (Also might be a chance for some reputable portfolio work and job references )

Students will share common interests in all aspects of Professional Arts. Purdue Calumet offers a wide variety of Professional Arts education classes and majors, and this organization is aimed to initiate camaraderie among students based on commonalities. Professional Arts include Film, Music, Graphic Design, Journalism, Public Relations, and Interactive Media.
