The Department of Art and Design is committed to the belief that the visual arts are an integral part of the humanist tradition, expressing the intellect, emotion, and spirit of the individual.

Students majoring in art, or those simply wishing to broaden their understanding of the creative process, aesthetics, and history of art are provided with the opportunity and environment for the best possible education in the visual arts within the context of a liberal arts education.

Students are exposed to monthly exhibits in the O’Connor Gallery, lectures by visiting artists, field trips to Chicago galleries and museums, and an ongoing intensive critique process, which promotes critical thinking and creative development.
