[ACTIVITY] Graduation Cap Design

Visualize a future where you are about to graduate from the University of Florida. Congratulations, you did it! You finished that final essay, you returned that overdue library book, and you have picked up your cap and gown. You are a rockstar! You are about to walk across the O’Connell Center to thunderous cheers to celebrate your four (+) years of hard work along with thousands of your closest friends. The best way to stand out in a sea of uniformity is bedecking your cap and calling it macaroni! Three things you want to consider: your personality, your audience, and your purpose.

Do you want your cap design to inform, entertain, persuade, show appreciation?

Are you aiming to get fame from the photographers, laughs from your friends, or tears from your family?

What do you most want people to know about you? Want to customize with your favorite TV show, movie, book? What about detailing your future career path? Are you feeling sentimental at this crossroads moment in your life?

You can prototype your design with Canva.com . Consider font, color scheme, images, etc. Express your unique sense of style, humor, and have fun with it!
