it is hard to believe we have been doing this so many years. We are not a "new" program anymore and certainly we are not "little." May we see 25 more years!

Andrew Thompson is the Amnesia: Restored Project Manager, majoring in Digital Technology and Culture with an emphasis in game design and development.
Andrew’s favorite thing about working on Amnesia is all of the people involved. As he explains, "remaking the game itself is a thrilling experience to be a part of, and as the Project Manager I'm lucky to be able to work alongside so many talented fellow students. It is an honor to develop this project with insight and guidance from Greg Feeley, Sarah West, Dene Grigar, and the awesome folks over at the Electronic Literature Lab."
Through this project he is already fulfilling his dream job: working on a unique game project alongside a passionate team.
Congrats to CMDC alum Joseph Schacher who has landed a position as leasing/marketing director for a senior living home. We are so happy for him!
