Arts

The arts encourage scholars to exercise freedom based on robust study, to think creatively, and to express themselves with clarity and feeling.

They are vital to a well-rounded life, as well as to the life of the mind. What’s more, working on the set of a play, or a watercolor, or a cantata involves different problem-solving skills, different tactile and aesthetic pleasures, and different interpersonal relationships from those in the classroom or lab. The visceral joy of creation and connection is part and parcel of the joy of inquiry.
