T h e P rospector WWW.CARROLL.EDU WHERE IS THE ART AT CARROLL COLLEGE, OGR LIBERAL ARTS SCHOOL? by maggie mccall intern writer For the $20,000 per year I pay in tuition I should be able to get a degree in painting. Concordia, Piedmont and Lesley are all private colleges around the country with similar demographics to Carroll College. These schools offer majors in painting, so why doesn’t Carroll? “What it comes down to is this institution does not put a high priority on the arts,” said a professor at Carroll, “ priority” being the operative word. On a campus with a $2 million foot ball stadium and new $400,000 parking lot where do the arts fit in? “At the bottom,” said the professor. “A small liberal arts college can’t offer every major and we have to ask ourselves if it would attract a large number of stu dents,” said Jim Trudnowski, former Vice President for Academic Affairs. If the concern were the num ber of students interested, then a degree in painting would be a long-term goal. With no pro gram in place to attract students now, class numbers w ould cer tainly be low at first. That does not mean however, that interest wouldn’t peak far ther down the road. “ It’s a high expense program,” said Trudnowski. So the problem at hand seems to be the immedi ate financial commitment. School fundraisers raised the $400,000 parking lot money. If the school can raise $400,000 for parking, why can’t they have a fundraiser for the arts?
