Neyda Borges, English Department chair and Journalism advisor, assembled a group of judges from media-related backgrounds to rate the projects for constructive feedback for the presenting students.
During one day of presentations, Laura Gonzalez presented Le’Mode, a fashion magazine for teenagers that aims to provide stimulating and quality content while taking into consideration budget restrictions of its audience.
Rosaly Casanueva presented a coffee table photography book, the first of its kind for a Capstone project, with images from New York City.
Finally, Klassike, a classical music magazine was presented by Salwa Raza and Rachel Rhoh as a way to rejuvenate the classical music community for young musicians.
