Recently, Art Center’s Admissions Office asked their Facebook fans to answer a simple question: Are you excited about attending Art Center? They expected to receive a quick note or video, but never anything as moving as incoming Entertainment Design student Saiful Haque created.

What’s the most important life lesson that Entertainment Design student Annis Naeem has learned while at Art Center? 
It’s a pretty simple one—to share.
“Don’t hide what you create from your peers and the world because you are afraid of your idea being stolen,” explains Naeem. “If you do, you will never have the chance to hear someone else’s criticism, input and thoughts on the matter—and that might help improve your original idea.”

Liu was one of over 200 applicants vying for the Gamers in Real Life, or G.I.R.L., scholarship, which aims to help more women enter the video game industry.
