First, I don't think there exists a state that actually has money right now - but that's a whole nothing topic! I am definitely not talking about courses offered by fabric stores - unless one is an absolute complete beginner and even then, the projects are way too simple.
Also, tuition is going up everywhere - unfortunately because it also means that many future students might not get their education now because of the increases. As to the dream situation you refer to, its unfortunately not as easy as that. Both sides (the aspiring amateur and the industry professionals) are much more alike than either would like to agree. Except neither side is willing to even talk to each other, let alone share the information that would help bridge the chasm between the two. It really comes down to the same basic steps that both sides follow, with slight changes in the order and importance each side places on those steps. But most programs out their focus solely on one or the other. Simple work on the cooperation, perhaps even collaboration with certificate programs instead of full out degree programs, would provide students with skills they need to get a job after they graduate. .... I hope that makes sense. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
