The class shares the following statement: 

coda, n. 
More than an end of a piece; it is an artistic, often emotional, final statement that acts as a bridge between the climax and the absolute resolution. 

"Our artistic journeys have been both a challenging and beautiful time throughout our education. All the failures, trials and errors, and moments of success have led us to where we are now. These learning experiences will be what we carry on in this transitionary period in our careers.

"Coda represents this transition, the stepping stone, and the final statement within our concluding passage in not only our creative journeys, but also in our interpersonal narratives. Through various mediums, techniques, and practices, the works reflect our unique stories and illustrate the closing of one chapter, awaiting another to open."

Please join us in celebrating this showcase of undergraduate creativity and achievement.
