In the start of any college career designs have to be made. For art majors a big decision is whether or not to pursue a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA).
“If you want to get the most studio exposure, and learn the most about studio art, you want to do the BFA anyways," said graduating senior Amy George.
"It took much longer than the BA’s and BS’s. I found that out the hard way but I feel like it was worth it to keep going."

Chair of the art department, professor Scott Stephens says the BFA is more specify and is good for students who want true studio experience.
“The BFA, its all art, all the time," Stephens said.
The BFA track begins in Freshman year and is made up of three different reviews. The foundation review which test basic art concepts. the concentration review which test students in their chosen concentration and the BFA exhibition review. A review on their final product, the BFA show.
“I like the review process its actually pretty fun," George said. “Its scary but I enjoy it.
Rebecca White said her show is the first to open and it will be dedicated to her mother who recently passed away.
All BFA exhibitions are held in the gallery on the first floor of Bloch Hall on Sundays.
