As it was in 1980, also.
I quit my four year BFA program after two years. They didn't teach me anything about working with oil paint but I'm a darn good scrap metal welder, thanks to that program.
I looked around for a place where I might actually get some art training and I ended up doing two more years in a commercial art college where they valued drawing and painting skills. That was a breath of fresh air, though I had to give up getting a degree for the privilege of being taught something worthwhile.
Thank goodness for SOG. I've learned more here in a year and a half than in all those four years put together.
