Assignment 5

The ICPF meeting was actually somewhat boring. A lot of it was stuff we have already heard a million times before. Of course the industry is concerned about sustainability and environmental impact. Almost everyone is concerned about that. The tips that the speakers gave about what to do in certain situations when you get on the job was helpful though.

As far as the competition went, it seemed like it was a little bit rigged. How did that giant ugly-looking "limited edition" corrugated football win 1st place. It didn't even look like a football, first of all, and can you imagine a grocery store trying to put 30 of those on a shelf? It would take up way too much space. Plus, if I eat chips and salsa out of something made of corrugated, I'm not going to put it over my mantle as a collectible. It seems like they just chose them as the winner because they are the partner school.
