    Spring Semester The capstone course for the visual arts major focuses broadly on aesthetics and specifically on the nature of an integrated perspective on the arts, with specific attention to the various visual arts, such as graphic design, studio art, photography, and film. It provides an opportunity for students to articulate their own informed philosophies of art while synthesizing their prior learning and experience. Philosophies of art and beauty, from Plato through the twentieth century, provide the basis for exploration in the arts and for how such study informs the complexities inherent in the decision making process regarding contemporary issues in the arts, for instance for arts organizations, government funding, censorship, the arts in public education, and the making of judgments regarding the role of art in society. This course is the required CLAC capstone course for visual arts majors and is open to all other majors. (Same course as GD 3980). Prerequisite: FA 1000 and junior standing or permission of instructor.
