There is always something bad about every college.AverageArt & Design Department
There is always something bad about every college... pcc is NOT made for everyone... we are adults we have the option whether to stay there or not, ultimatley EVERYTHING falls on us...we are responsible, pcc does not force people to stay or to come YOU CHOOSE don't like it leave, love it stay, forced to go NOT pcc's problem, wasn't impressed do something about it, things don't revolve around us, PCC's glorifies God, yes that's one of the reasons why it is a good college...

Question
I went to pcc for a year ,BrightArt & Design Department
I went to pcc for a year , it was ok , i made alot of friends that i will keep in contact with for life. but the overall feel of the school was pretty bad. they say that they are out to help the students but while i was there it seemed like all they cared about was how they could kick you out. if you like havin alot of rules , and you were realy sheltered as a kid by all means go there you will love it , but if your parents let you have a little bit of independence , this is not the place for you.

Question
The training I received in art at PCCArt & Design Department
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.
