Program Perspective: Art and Design

“I've been drawing ever since I could hold a pencil, so I've always had a very strong relationship with the arts (not to mention that graphic design is actually a great gateway into what I will be studying for my master's degree). I plan to become an architect in the future and an understanding of graphic design is integral to that career.

I originally came to Wilson to play field hockey, but I was drawn to the campus without the sport. I adored the layout and the energy of the campus, and my experiences with the professors and staff have all been very positive. I am especially attached to those I have met through the fine arts courses. Everyone I have met in my art classes has been so supportive and passionate!

My experience has been very encouraging. I have never felt more confident in my abilities since coming here largely due to my instructors. I feel accomplished in class while still learning new things. I am being challenged to grow, but not overwhelmed. I feel that as I continue my time here, I will be more than prepared for higher learning and starting my career.”
