The Return of an Old Friend

Imagine it's 11.59pm on 31st December . . . and the cartoon wags in newspapers depict the frail old year coming to an end of his life, and his last action is to usher in the new [baby] year . . . well, we had something similar happen when on 9 September 2015 a brand new graphics course burst into life.

I say new . . . what I really mean is a graphics course 'returns'. I recall suggesting that back in 2010 with the departure of Jenny, Will, Kristian, Jayde, Ciara, James & Beth that it was the last HND, never to return . . .
Never say never as new for 2015 is the Higher National Diploma in Graphic Design. Same professional education - just a different title and the course still has the option of a single year Top-Up at the University of Salford as long as the quality is there.

So FD Lime is the last Foundation Degree with UoS for a while - but their 'antics' will still be on show here for the next several months.

The new HND group can be found on their own page [HND Graphics Returns : 2015] with their own graphic brand to boot!

  2. Hey Mr. Beattie. I think I was in college with you back in the '70s. I got diploma member SIAD. Lot of water under the bridge since then. Remember Brian Nicholson, Ros Holden, Jim Blackwell... was googling Nick Blackledge, wondering where he was these days and came across your blog.
