A Message from President Warrick L. Carter

As President of this remarkable institution, I am proud to have your sons and daughters here. As you become more familiar with the college, its people and its programs, I invite you to help your child to make the most of what Columbia and the City of Chicago have to offer. Encourage your son or daughter to engage as fellow learners with faculty and the diverse body of fellow students they’ll meet here. Help them take advantage of the exceptional opportunities that Chicago’s vibrant arts and media community provides to expand their minds and imagination. This is a wonderful place, unlike almost any other in the world – and that’s why we have the audacity to set off on, well, audacious journeys. So again, welcome, hope to see you around the campus as you visit with us throughout the coming years.

Date: 9/5/2008 4:08 PM to 9/19/2008 Some of the most outstanding work exhibited at Manifest 2008 facilitates forms that are built on the language of visual signs. These are works that refuse to be pigeonholed into claustrophobic practices. They act in liminal spaces that identify with visual, not literal terms.
