Section II.C. Programmatic Areas Text Outline – Visual Arts Studies in General Education (refer to NASAD Standards for Handbook, Accreditation III.O. and Appendix II.E.) Art/design units have important responsibilities for the development of visual knowledge and skills among the general population. The most immediate of these responsibilities in multipurpose postsecondary institutions is with non-major students. However, attention to visual arts studies in general education extends into many other aspects of professional education and training. It is expected that each art/design unit will have specific objectives, policies, and programs to address this area. This portion of the Self-Study should assess the appropriateness and the effectiveness of these objectives, policies, and programs. Briefly describe objectives, policies, and programs concerning art and design studies in general education. As applicable, the statement should address such issues as: 1. The general college student; 2. Preparation of the professional artist/designer; 3. Faculty and administrative involvement; 4. The local community;
