Dear Julie and Kim,

Unfortunately, I will tell you that university fine arts courses are EXACTLY as they were 30 years ago. Representational fine arts education is what you get outside the university setting.

That being said. no one has ever been ill-served by a four year degree. It's just not relevant to what we do here as painters. However, it is most certainly relevant to any number of publishers, editors, and some educational organizations (if you are thinking that teaching is part of what you will do).

Is it too late to pick up a minor in a useful, if unrelated, field?
