Artistic Review and Dismissal


A student's artistic progress is monitored carefully each half semester by the program's faculty. Only students whose work meets the unanimous approval of the faculty may continue in the program. It is acknowledged that some students may be performing adequately in class but in the judgment of the faculty other factors may make it necessary to dismiss the student for artistic reasons. Artistic dismissal criteria include, among others, lack of suitability for the profession, inability to collaborate, inability to accept criticism, lack of artistic vision, lack of talent, inadequate work ethic or discipline, and lack of leadership ability. Unlike academic dismissal, there is no appeal for dismissals made on artistic grounds, and the judgment of the professional training faculty is final.
