Since class size is limited and enrollments are heavy, Drawing I should be completed as early as possible.

Additional requirements for the major: Studio Art 16, Studio Art 20, Studio Art 25, Studio Art 76, Studio Art 77, two Art History courses, and four of the following: Studio Art 17 21, 22, 23, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 65, 66, 68, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75 or 90. Studio Art 76 and 77 serve as the culminating experience in the major.
