The training I received in art at PCC was incredible. My technical skills improved tremendously under the direction of the art faculty. I have a couple of criticisms, nonetheless. One is that they do not allow for personal exploration/discovery in anyone's artwork. Every student must paint with extreme realism and must conform to their ideas of what art is and is not. There is no freedom at all for expression. Fortunately for me I wanted to study this style of art so it wasn't a problem. The other thing is that Art History Class was a bit ridiculous as all the slides they show of great sculpture, paintings, etc. have big black boxes over all the

un-PCC approved areas

The Michaelangelo's statue of David was one of many of the significantly blocked pieces of artwork.

As far as the rest of the real world, PCC did not prepare me for any of it. They teach you how to be an unquestioning, mouse-like employee and not about how to survive and succeed in the world or business. They teach you nothing of how to assert yourself, think outside of the box, or any other vitally important skills in business and life in general.
