Creativity & the Arts

The Creativity and the Arts Constellation encourages students to explore the arts, creativity, design and innovation; to interrogate the basis of aesthetic judgments across time, place, and media; to formulate their own criteria for judgments attuned to differences of, for instance, social class,ethnicity, race, religion, gender, sexuality, ability, nationality, and/or to create and compose their own literary and artistic works.  Through interdisciplinary study, students will learn to connect the historical and creative context of works in the arts.
