Changes to my study programme
Hello!
Today I’m going to talk about changes that I would do to my study
programme/career. Currently I’m on my fourth year of Plastic Arts at the
Universidad de Chile, and after all this time studying there, I’ve noticed some
things that could be improved.
Firstly, I
think that in terms of curriculum, we should have a subject to teach us how to
survive as artists after finishing the career. I remember that in second year we
had a subject named Management of Artistic Projects, and they taught us how to
apply for art funding contests, but I think that’s not enough for showing us
how the real art world operates on a daily basis, especially if one wants to
make a living by doing art.
The other
thing that is **urgent** is a rebuilt of the facilities. Honestly, I think it
should be illegal for the Uni to have a Faculty like ours. There are so many unsafe
installations. A few examples are: poorly-made electrical plugs, bad ovens of
the ceramic workshop that could explode anytime, and the infamous roof leaking
that cause our faculty to look like Atlantis every winter. We also have veryyyy
bad ceilings, they’re made of asbestos, which, if you didn’t know, is a type of
mineral that can cause a pulmonary disease if one is exposed to its dust. And
if all of that is not terrible enough, last year (if I remember correctly), a BIG PIECE
OF CEILING FELL OFF in the hallway, right outside the door of a classroom. Luckily nobody got hurt.
I think I
could write so much more, but I'm gonna end it here. Hope you enjoyed my post!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard not knowing what we'll do when these years go by, good post! I identified myself
I completely agree with what you say, it should be illegal to make people study in such a place
ReplyDeleteOoh I was there when that piece of roof fell at the entrance to the drawing room, very dangerous!!
