I selected Creighton because of it's amazing reputation for education and community involvement. I did not know that I would be majoring in fine arts. For me it was a perfect fit. The classes are smaller and the professors quickly become your mentors. I was challenged and supported by the whole art department. They helped me find internships and gain experience in several different artistic settings. I continue to keep in touch with faculty and classmates. The Creighton fine arts program has provided me with a really great network of people working in a variety of creative fields.
I think an arts degree is a surprising challenge in work ethic. For anyone who took an art class without expectations they quickly learn how to implement and follow through on an idea. The classes are physical and mental; often laborious and on a deadline. If you can be a self starter with these skill you can do anything.
