Course Descriptions
Honor Societies and Student
Organizations:
Students may participate in several
student organizations: Art Student Association (ASA), Designer’s Ink, and
the Art Education Club. NOTA, the campus art and literary magazine,
welcomes students’ art entries.
From earliest times, human beings
have given meaning to life through artistic expression. In our
contemporary world, visual awareness and the communication of visual ideas
have become increasingly significant. The Department of Art & Design
responds to the needs of a visually-oriented world through instruction in
graphic design, studio art, art history, art education, and the exhibition
of art. The faculty’s role is augmented by a program of visiting artists
and designers who offer their viewpoints to students and the community at
large. The Foster Gallery in the Haas Fine Arts Center serves as the
showcase for well-known visiting artists as well as faculty and students.

ART & DESIGN PROGRAMS: LIBERAL ARTS
The Department of Art & Design
offers three studio art degrees for liberal arts students: a 36-credit
Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor of Science (B.S.), a 60-credit
comprehensive Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor of Science (B.S.), and a
75-credit comprehensive Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.).
Students enter the department’s
studio programs in the 36-credit B.A. or B.S. or in the 60-credit
Comprehensive B.A. or B.S. The 60-credit comprehensive B.A. and B.S.
degrees are offered in: ceramics, drawing, graphic design, illustration,
metals, painting, photography, printmaking, and sculpture. The 36-credit
B.A. or B.S. is not titled in any area.
The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is
a nationally recognized degree with high standards for excellence. It is
the degree students take to prepare for graduate studies and for the most
immersive studio experience. Students seeking the B.F.A. degree must apply
to the program as explained below under Additional B.F.A. Requirements.
The B.F.A. is offered in the following areas: ceramics, drawing, graphic
design, illustration, painting, photography, printmaking, and sculpture
(but not metals).

PORTFOLIO REQUIREMENT
An essential part of effective art study is the development and
maintenance of a portfolio of creative work. This portfolio is required
for entrance into the B.F.A. program and will be requested by course
instructors as well to help advise students in their studies. A portfolio
is the central tool students use to access and guide their development and
eventually present themselves to the art and design world.
