I read this article sent to me by my librarian wife and knew that I needed to get this particular word out. Business Arts in Art School is something sorely lacking in many programs. My personal experience with college-level art education emphasized only the skills needed to create great design. I can remember the head of the department even saying that the program was designed to turn out professional designers who could even go into business for themselves.
It seems a little shortsighted to think that these individuals could succeed without even the most basic business skills mentioned in the article and accompanying links.
