The visual arts are rewarding and enriching experiences that can serve as a foundation on which to build a liberal arts education. Experiential learning is encouraged, and an art internship in your area of interest, usually taken between the junior and senior years, is a valuable experience for art majors. Juried student art exhibitions and campus publications offer students opportunities to show and publish their artwork. Portfolio reviews are conducted annually for art majors to develop their presentation skills and demonstrate their progress in the program. In the classroom, the studio critique is a valuable means of developing skills in critical and aesthetic judgement.
Scholarships are available to students who take courses in the visual arts.
