Graduation Day at JD School of Design, held on 27th August 2024, at The Koramangala Club, Bangalore, was emotional and joyful. The day belongs to students from the Fashion Design, Interior Design, and Jewellery Design courses, which celebrate the creativity, hard work, and growth of students. It marked the end of their design journey and the start of a new beginning as they stepped into the world of professionals.
This was more than the end of a couple of years of study. To the students, it was a long pathway of endless work, late nights doing assignments, and honing their skills to achieve all that they were doing. Every sketch, every choice of fabric, and every design decision sprang to life on this catwalk as students took a deep breath and tried to believe how much they had come. Graduation Day wasn’t just about receiving degrees but also about recognizing the creative process each student had gone through.
One could feel the buzz of excitement in the air as the students took a moment to reflect on the experiences gained. From long hours in design studios to supporting each other through difficult projects, this day was about accomplishments and, most importantly, memories and bonds forged along the way. Dreams were fulfilled, and new ones were already starting to take shape in the minds of these young designers.
Each student entered this moment with a different story to be told reflection of the diverse and rich design disciplines each pursued. Be it fashion, interior, or jewellery design, they had been equipped with the wherewithal to express their creativeness and bring about a change in the world.
Fun and Quirky Moments
True to the spirit of JD School of Design, Graduation Day wasn’t all about formalities. From weird to fun, the event was filled with moments which added just that much more amount of jolly factor to the whole event. The session had interactive Q&A, and some of the responses coming out were hilariously touching. Some questions were, “If you could dedicate a song to your college, what would it be? “, or “What tool of design was the most painful to learn?
It allowed the students to recall memories from the funny to the insightful.
And they did, in droves, adding to the light-hearted atmosphere. How many parents asked, “What’s the strangest fashion term your child has used at home?” couldn’t help but burst out laughing as they remembered some of the weird terminologies they had grown accustomed to hearing over the years. The whole day was full of camaraderie as the students along with their families celebrated not only the achievements but also the journey that led them to this proud moment.
Mentoring and Guiding Future Designers Graduation Day also celebrated the mentors and faculty who had guided these students through it all. Many faculty took the opportunity to remark on the growth that the students experienced. From tentative beginners unsure of their design skills to confident young designers ready to take on the world, the transformation was obvious.
As a mentor at the institute once said, “The design studio walls stood witness to innumerable hours of creativity, endless discussions, and laughter from this batch.” The faculty members too, who had played dual roles of guides and motivators, could not stop smiling as their students ascended the stage for taking their degree. It was one of those moments of shared success educators having been at the helm, so to say, of shaping design in the times to come by instilling the spark in their wards.
The students of JD School of Design are not merely graduating with a piece of paper, but stepping into the world where their skills, ideas, and unique perceptions make a difference.
