ReplyDeleteI believe that teaching art as part of the daily curriculum develops the imagination which helps children deal with adversity and problems as they grow older. Also, artists are so much more interesting than engineers, so let's raise more artists!!!!
Lisa - It's not a zero-sum. We need engineers as much as we need artists. Many artists and architects find their innovative genius from their artistic side.
