<p>well if you're accepted to Georgetown, come to the Hilltop! Here's some info from the philosophy department's site(shouldn't I be studying for finals...lol)</p>
<p>The Philosophy Department enjoys a very strong connection with the Kennedy Institute of Ethics, a world-renowned think tank on campus which focuses primarily on bioethics. Six of the Department's faculty - Tom Beauchamp, John Langan, Maggie Little, Madison Powers, Robert Veatch, and LeRoy Walters, have full-time joint appointments with the Institute; John Keown completes the Institute's roster of world-renowned scholars. All of these faculty have sustained interest in applied ethics, public policy, and ethical theory.</p>
<p>The presence of the Institute enables the Philosophy Department to offer a dedicated Master's in Bioethics, as well as course offerings that enable all interested philosophy Ph.D. students to gain a valuable competency in teaching bioethics. Further, the bioethics library attached to the Kennedy Institute - the National Reference Center for Bioethics Literature -- offers faculty and students the world's largest collection of bioethics materials, and a truly astounding collection of books devoted to ethical theory, all set in a beautiful library supported by seventeen professional librarians and bibliographers.</p>

<p>i think you should go to UC b</p>
<p>what about what i did?</p>
<p>NYU probably would open more doors for you, since it's not just focused on engineering. I never was a fan of cooper union anyway(i like larger schools), so i'm biased. However you can't go wrong with NYU!</p>
<p>Interesting, I know GT has a great ethics program, that's why I applied to it. I'd like to know how it compares to UVA and NYU's UG program, for instance.</p>

<p>What kind of art are you studying? The Art History program is the best in the country and the Institute for Fine Arts is excellent and you <em>do</em> have access to these as an undergrad.</p>
<p>I don't think you made a mistake at all.</p>

<p>I am studying studio art, but one of the major reasons I did not decide to go to Cooper Union is because NYU has far more resources and departments. I will be a good artist, learn and do a lot of work wherever I go whether it be Cooper Union(Which tells me I am foolish for passing them up because "they are the best", NYU, which is the school I truely see myself at, or some other school with limited art.</p>

what would you suggest I do in order to get the most out of the Institute of Fine Arts and The Art History Department as an undergraduate I am planning on taking full advantage of these incredible resources, do they offer independent studies, I am a Dean's Scholar so I hope/wonder it has some weight in regard to faculty and Power in the University as an Undergraduate...What can you tell em about this? and about taking advantage of these programs?</p>
