<div>Are you a student in the FSU Art Department Foundations Program? Do you have a suggestion or feedback to share? If so, we would love to hear from you!<br>

<div class="ContentPasted0">FSU Art foundations faculty routinely seek best practices from educational symposia, accrediting bodies, and peer institutions. We habitually work to revise and update our program curricula to reflect these practices and to ensure
that our curricular goals are being met. While we regularly check in with these groups, it has been a while since we formally reached out to students to request feedback. We recognize that great ideas come from a variety of sources, experience levels, and
backgrounds. We hope that you will reach out to share your ideas, thoughts, and requests.</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">The Foundations Program is comprised of 6 courses: Success Strategies, 2D, 3D, Digital, Drawing, Contemporary Art & Design Foundations that are designed to be taken in your first 2 years at the university. These courses are preparatory
(foundational) for transitional and upper-level classes. We seek to prepare you for intermediate and upper level classes in a variety of ways: providing applied experience with different techniques and ways of making, exposing students to a wide range of materials
and equipment, extending occasions for idea development (individually and collaboratively), offering opportunities to discuss artwork through critical dialog, prospects for reading and research, and providing access to curated information. Our goal is to provide
a well-rounded curriculum across 6 courses while engaging critical thinkers and creative makers.</div>

So, reach out! We want to hear from you about how you (or we) are doing. We want to know if there is something you really like about one of your classes. Is there something you want to learn more about? Or, how about if there is something that you dislike or
question the value of? We’d love to hear about any of these (and more). Not only does this offer you an opportunity for your voice to be heard, but also it is helpful for your instructors to know what we are doing well and what we can be doing better. Contact
