Wow, where to start? This place has had a huge impact on my life. I went there in 1990 and graduated with an apprenticeship in Signs and Display, under Roland Hansen. He was a real master of handlettering. Here I am 28 years later still in the business. I run a screenprinting and embroidery shop in Idaho. I still do handlettering on signs and have made my name in this trade. I have been to San Francisco, Berkeley, Seattle, Olympia, Spokane, Coeur d alene, and Boise. No matter where I went I could find work woth these skills. On a seperate note, from the looks of this place now, there are new dorms and many more amenities than when i was there. I had a hand in painting the dragon on the gym floor back in the day, hope it is still there! Boy would it ever be awesome to have a reunion of graduates from those days, some of the best people, and I have amazing memories of those days. I hope everyone that goes there comes out with as many strong memories as well as skills to suceed in life, Thank You SJCC!
