Well my senior project was my graphic design blog www.youthedesigner.com which eventually led to me creating these forums. =)

My goal was to make something to help designers, but also be a functional business for myself.

I would start writing down topics that interest you, maybe start with world topics, and then figure out which are of design you like best.

drop shadow!


or if that's not floating your boat, then do as mentioned, sit down and think about what you enjoy, what you enjoy most about design, or things that you enjoy that has graphic design involved (graphic design in fashion etc).

AlyCe makes some good points about searching within yourself and coming up with an idea for your project. I don't even remember what my final project was in school. I think it was something about type and poetry. I was really into that at the time.

I woud lean more to what Gino is recommending though. If you can create something that will help develop your reputation online and that you might be able to form a business around than your project has more than just student knowledge value. It would have actual business value.
