Philip grew up in New Jersey, right across the bridge from New York City.  He is currently located in Philadelphia for college, but spends time interning in New York.  His favorite area in New York is Central Park, specifically by the MET Museum.  For students that do attend school in New York, Phil gives them the following advice: “Not many people can walk outside their dorm and be in the heart of the biggest city in the US.  Take advantage of what the city has to offer and explore.”

Philip loves to keep himself entertained by watching sports, as well as reading literature by Richard Matheson.

Academically, Philip’s best experience has been in his Typography class during junior year.  During this class, Philip had the opportunity to research and design an editorial piece.  These skills are being demonstrated through Philip’s work at Campus Clipper.

Ilona Gordon, Pace University

Ilona is a current student at Pace University (’13). She is majoring in Advertising with a minor in Art. She is experienced in graphic designing, and is currently designing an eBook for the Campus Clipper, as well as using social media to promote coupons and events. Ilona states that she enjoys finding new events because it’s something that other students may find useful and they may not be aware of them. She even likes to go to some of the events. She’s lived in the City for two years, and her favorite places to frequent are the South Street Seaport, Battery Park City, MoMA, Union Square, and Webster Hall.

Her favorite college class is Principles of Design, because it gives her the chance to express herself in the form of fine art, without any restrictions and limitations. As an artist, she is able create something that not only pleases other people, but herself as well. Practice has helped her become really good at it, and as a piece of advice, she tells students to never stop practicing what you love doing. In the end it may end up as a career.

Her final piece of advice to students is to find time to explore your resources. You may be surprised how much your school has to offer, from events and free food to exhibits, speakers, and connections. And living in New York City, you get opportunities that people anywhere else in the world only dream of. You can meet famous people at free events, or enjoy free movie screenings months before they come out. Know your city.
