[quote=Anonymous]Setting aside the intrinsic value of the arts from a practical perspective, I learned way more about project management, administrative stuff like budgeting, and how to manage a team from student directing a play in college than I ever did in any internship or job I had before graduating. The arts provide unparalleled opportunities to conceptualize a project and see it through from its inception to its completion, almost always working collaboratively with others. Artistic endeavors call upon and stretch ones imagination, creativity, problem solving, ability to make things work with limited resource, and critical thinking about how most effectively to convey the thought or intention underlying a piece to the audience or viewer. Those are highly valuable and practical skills. It must be sad and stunting to go through life with such a limited definition of education. [/quote]
