Anyone else taken Art Classes??

Just a question: have any other monkey taken art classes in college? Am I the only one? I was the only one in my finance dept, and most monkeys at school gave me shit for pursuing a minor in which I couldn't guarantee a grade of A in the classes. Great experience, though, if you're the creative type.

I took a few Art History classes. Looking back it was totally pointless and irrelevant, but fun and somewhat interesting nonetheless. One of the professors actually brought in daquiries for the whole class on the last day, which was a big reason I took the class.

You always find a few people in each analyst class with interests that differ wildly from the norm. I personally would never take an Art class, but I did take a Latin Dance class in college. I think you're fine, just laugh off those giving you crap.
