Art Center is running a fantastic program where you can take a 14 week course in transportation design at a local manufacturer design center in Orange County. THe current session is at Mazda, the next is at Mitsubishi apparently) It's once a week for a 3 hour class for 14 weeks and is taught by some pretty heavy weight guys. Anyways, at $680 it's awefully cheap. Maybe a few of you guys would like to take the summer session?
