Food For Thought:This was really interesting to see which alumni and from which years attended art schools. I think ultimately lots of kids go to college for the same reason: to do something they are passionate about. Prior to this year, I honestly had no concept of what an "art school" is, and it sounds like a lot of fun, however, I have so many interests, I know it is not for me. I want to be able to bridge my artistic knowledge and creativity and carry it into my work as an urban planner, designing and redesigning urban structures to be more sustainable for the future. Bailey spoke out to me a lot in how he was interested in politics but then per chance stumbled upon architecture. I think architecture and urban planning are especially interesting fields that bridge many different disciplines. I think ultimately, in whatever career I so choose I want to be able to be passionate about it and I want to create, maybe not to the extent of the artists, but definitely I want to be able to produce, innovate, problem-solve, and create solutions. Another thing I was interested in hearing about was the different way the programs were set up. One guy thought that VCU did not challenge students enough going in, while another girl enjoyed the rigorous pace as to which she started off in drawing. Each student enjoyed different aspects of the art field. Coming out of this, after having applied to college, I'm realizing how kids that are happiest at their colleges are kids that choose to follow and learn something that they can be passionate about. Going forward on my college adventure, that's the most I could hope for.
