Most of the Art Practice undergraduate students complete their studies in the Spring semester, and some graduate in the Fall semester. They meet the requirements for a Bachelor of Art degree in the middle of December, and go on to pursue their professional lives. While they are honored for their achievements in the formal Spring graduation ceremony, nobody shakes their hand and encourages them to be bold on their path forward.

Best wishes to you all from the Faculty, staff and fellow students in Art Practice!
