ADVISING SCHEDULE

Advising Schedule  – make sure you check when your time and location is.
Remember – come with questions, concerns and a piece of paper with the following:

All the courses you have taken/are currently taking

Your schedule plan for the Fall semester

Which of the 4 studios you plan on taking

Please also bring the BFA checklist sheet we handed out in class so we can calculate your credits

If you cannot make this time let Sara or I know soon so we can make sure we schedule a time to meet with you and get you your pin information.

Also- the sophomores, juniors and seniors LOVED getting to talk to you more about their studios and answer your questions. I hope that you follow up with some of them and take tours of each of the areas.

For your gift you are to bring the most valuable thing you are willing to give away.

Wrap this gift, and outside the package have a card, which describes the “story” of your gift. This narrative may describe the objects history, what it is, who made it, where it is from, why you deem it valuable.

We will use this gift exchange as a jumping off point to discuss what we value and how value is communicated.

You will be giving this thing away and you will be receiving a gift in return.
