"Coming in as an incoming college freshman I never expected to ever be a student in Fine Arts. Changing my major to Art Studio with a minor in Art History has been the best decision I have made. The most significant thing I have learned from the School of Art & Visual Studies is to never be afraid to be creative and express yourself.”
