<p>Hey all, I didn’t mean to make such a major fuzz about the white guy stuff. It’s just something I picked up from another post. I was more interested in the teaching philosophy from each program. It’s quite difficult to tell from reading their websites. I was dealing with a wait list thing at cornell and RISD, both very theoretical schools from the east coast. I didn’t make cornell, and RISD isn’t compelling enough for the tuition, even with scholarships. Now that I am stuck with this choice, I would really like to go to the more theoretically interesting of the two. Thanks for your feedback so far. Will keep y’all posted!</p>
