Time to make some noise.

 

Our fifth graduating quarter broke all kinds of barriers at DAD. The Fall ‘21 crew was our biggest yet, they included our first-ever group of Strategy students, and they insisted on doing everything their way – loud as hell. Making quiet work is just not in this group’s DNA and if you don’t believe us, check the receipts below.

Our Q4 is, like,
a really big deal.

 

The class of Summer 2021 was (at the time) our biggest quarter ever – and that’s just how they did things. Big personalities, bold ideas, and considerable creative chops helped push our fourth quarter to a whole ‘nother level, raising the bar for future DAD students to come.

DAD boys for life.

 

It wasn’t until months into their time at DAD when we finally met our third-ever quarter, Spring 2021, in person. Despite the weirdness of starting school during a pandemic, these two stuck it out and worked their asses off to create the killer portfolios you see below. We’re glad they did, because now they’ll be a part of the DAD family until the end of time – and they’ve got the tattoos to prove it.

Meet crew number two.

 

Who says DAD isn’t too tough? This bunch. These were the last creatives standing out of our second-ever finishing quarter, Winter 2021. They rose to the challenge and displayed the kind of resiliency that will make them all contributors on day-one in whatever agency is lucky enough to land them.
