  <title><![CDATA[Pumpkin Showcase and IDSA Kickoff]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>First-year industrial design students, their instructors, and the student chapter of Industrial Designer&rsquo;s Society of America (IDSA) invite everyone to their Pumpkin Showcase.</p>

<p>Students in the School of Industrial Design will have just finished a 3-day design BLITZ -- a fast-paced exercise to learn skills to take their creativity to the next level. What&rsquo;s the design challenge? Given one pumpkin, an inspiring designer, and an iterative design process, how can they:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Truly exploit the material of the pumpkin?</li>
	<li>Capitalize on the day/night transformation?</li>
	<li>Reinterpret a theme?</li>
	<li>Craft with precision?</li>
</ul>

<p>Thursday evening, spectators will be able to choose a best-in-show from 60 pumpkins with a monetary vote of a quarter or more. The winner will be announced at 8:30 that evening. The money will help to fund future IDSA student projects.</p>

<p>Everyone is invited to this IDSA fall kick-off event. Meet fellow students, faculty, and practitioners. Play a bit of Pictionary Sketchoff &ndash; ID style!&nbsp; Come to learn about IDSA plans for the upcoming school year, and have a ton of fun!</p>
