Abstract
Much has been written about the benefits of learning to play an instrument, creating an image on canvas, or moving in coordinated gestures. Students develop self-discipline, persistence, collaboration, problem-solving, and public performance through the arts. Such abilities are needed not just by artists; they are of immense benefit to any person engaged in any profession. Whether as majors or non-majors, students who take courses in the arts are given a valuable opportunity to not only learn content but also develop new ways of thinking, communicating, and evaluating. Classes in the arts broaden a student’s understanding of human nature, offer new ways to think about the unknown and the familiar, new concepts and old ideas, and one’s own and diverse cultures. Fine arts classes teach students to hear and to see, to be comfortable with ambiguity, to examine an issue from multiple perspectives, and to develop sound methodologies for working through confusing and sometimes controversial issues.
