Hi Richard!

Yes, I suppose that I should have worded the first option better. I meant any art-related degree, but not necessarily from an art school. I wonder if I can edit the options...

OPAL is Online Programming for All Libraries. Here is a link: OPAL-Online Here is their description of OPAL: "OPAL is an international collaborative effort by libraries of all types to provide web-based programs and training for library users and library staff members. These live events are held in online rooms where participants can interact via voice-over-IP, text chatting, and synchronized browsing. Everyone is welcome to participate in OPAL programs. There is no need to register. OPAL programs are offered free of charge to participants."

It was pretty neat to do, and I may do other programs in the future. The ones that I have done are archived on the above site.

I agree that we learn the most when we are taught by the best. It is pretty hard to learn from someone who does not have the information that you are seeking, and I also agree with your statement, "I learned more from my short time with Daniel Greene than I think many art students learn in four years." If you watch/listen to my program on art education, you will see evidence of just that!
