Capstone a Definition by Philip

To me, a capstone is a way to show a small piece of work that you are capable of. I think a capstone should be the best work you have created throughout your college career. It is a time to show off what you've learned over the past 4 or so years.

I am taking a lot of pride in my capstone. Being a New Media major with a Music minor I wanted to encompass the music in my project. I fell in love with Animusic when I saw it and it is a corporation I would enjoy working for so I decided, why not aim to appeal to that corporation?

I do NOT see the capstone just as a hoop to jump through to graduate, that is what I'd call the math and English classes I had to take....I consider capstones to be a privilege, a chance to show off your work to mass numbers of people, to be proud of what you have accomplished. I also see it as a way to appeal to employers, not only does it give them a chance to see your work, but also get to talk to you and see how you interact with other people and how personable you are as well as how much knowledge you have on your project and software you used.

That is my view of capstones.
