I am a young student with a budding interest in art history. I’m currently attending community college and would like to transfer to a University with an esteemed and highly successful baccalaureate program in the subject. I need to know which schools are the BEST.
I don’t have a concentration of study at the moment so I am open to anything.
If you’re talking about an undergraduate degree, the best schools in general will most likely have the best art history programs (your usual top schools, the Ivy’s, etc; see this: http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/college/national-search). Any of the top schools will have a "highly successful" art history department. However, to narrow that down further, I’m willing to bet the schools with the best graduate programs would have equally excellent undergraduate programs. Those would be Harvard, Yale, Columbia, NYU, CUNY, Berkeley– just to get you started.
If I were you I would just try to transfer to the best university you can.

I am currently attending a 4 year B.A. program at a liberal arts college. I am finishing up my second year. Due to the economy, I’m looking for something a little easier on the pocket for the next two years.
Usually people attend a community college for two years and get a bachelor’s degree at an accredited university…. is it possible to do just the opposite? Start a degree at a 4 year college and finish it at a community college? Sounds silly, but I thought i’d ask
I am very sorry, but community colleges do not offer 4 year degrees. They offer 2 year degree and certificate programs. I know it will be difficult for many people, but please do your best to finish your degree. You need that degree in order to compete in the job market. With so many people losing their jobs, you must have something to compete with others. And if you think, what advantage do I have against someone else with a degree and gobs of experience? Just know that there are employers who desire people fresh out of college, who have not already been shaped and molded by other companies; someone who has new ideas…
Our community group holds programs and classes in various subjects. The voted to have a figure drawing workshop. To make a long story short, it came around to getting a model and having my husband pose, and yes it would mean nude, just like in a figure drawing class.
My hub is mr. fit and when I mentioned it he said ok.
Now that it seems good to go I am wondering if it’s really a good idea. Do you think it is? Should I tell him I decided I don’t want him to pose nude? I know he’d respect my wishes. We already paid the art teacher so we’d need another model.
Please give me your thoughts.
If you’re uncomfortable with it, don’t go through with it because you feel like it "should" be OK, plain and simple. Follow what your feelings are about this.
Personally, I don’t see too big of a problem here. If it’s for an art class, these people are going to be mindful and respectful about the situation. I would be honored that they wanted him to pose nude!
But like I said, evaluate the situation within yourself, and if you really feel uncomfortable, find another model.
Hope this helps!

I am a freshmen in a community college.
Currently studying both Graphic design and Japanese.
I love both fields but it’s rare to find an art school that offer study abroad opportunities in Japan or even offer its language.
So… Are there any great art schools in Japan with English programs?
(I’ve been studying Japanese for five years now but I am not that good yet and I really want to learn the language. I know that if you REALLY want to learn it, you must live there for AT LEAST a year or two.)
What about this school? I don’t think they have English classes. But they accept students from other countries.

Students learn basic creative and performance skills in music, drama and dance and how they are applied in a professional setting. Whether you are exploring your own talents, coordinating the talents of others, or practicing the techniques you will need to make a living at your craft, the School of Music and Performing Arts provides the fundamentals you need.
TRANSCRIPT:
Do you feel more alive when you’re on stage, or as part of a creative team? Have you always wanted to act, dance, compose, but have been afraid to try? Then think about WCC’s School of Music and Performing Arts. There’s no other field where you can express yourself to the world. It doesn’t matter what your experience level is. We only care that you grow. The School of Music and Performing Arts is unique. Why? Because it can train you for a career in the arts or provide a background for an appreciation that can last a lifetime. We’ve had students go on to form their own dance companies, perform with the Blue Man Group, write with such artists as Madonna, and transfer to top four-year performing arts programs. You don’t find this level of equipment and rehearsal space in many schools. We have pianos, space for guitar lessons, a soundproof studio, computers set up with all the applications you need to learn sequencing, producing, arranging. We have large dance studios and two theater stages. In Towsley Auditorium, you can learn sound reinforcement and perform in front of hundreds of people. And yes, we have traditional classrooms where you will learn the valuable art of managing your own career as a performer or music engineer. These instructors know what they teach because every single one of them works in the field. They spend their time performing around the country and working with other artists. You get personal, individual attention from these high-caliber instructors, and they know tons of people in the business who can help you. The tuition at WCC is very reasonable — probably what you’d make playing a few gigs. And there are lots of loans, grants,and scholarships that you may qualify for. So whether you want to work on stage or behind the scenes, you can develop an appreciation for the performing arts, and WCC can help make it happen.

I keep hearing about grants and how they can help aspiring business owners. Well, my dream is to start a martial arts school that also holds community outreach programs like counseling, meditation seminars, anti-rape seminars, literacy programs, and all kinds of things. But, I havent the slightest clue on what to do. I keep researching websites, but I keep getting sent to other links, that send to other links!!! I live in Nashville,Tn. Any help would be amazing
Most (99.99%+) of all grant websites are scams.
