Sort of busy as the holidays approach but a thought came up in recent conversations.
They say the next phase of the economy will emphasize creativity and so people need to acquire the appropriate skills.
I wonder if the recent financial problems originating from Wall Street compounded by the billions lost to the massive Ponzi scheme perpetuated by Bernard Madoff might actually help usher a higher valuation of creative backgrounds along. After all that has happened, and in light of what is yet to come, perhaps an MFA might have less of a stigma than an MBA.
You need to have an MFA to be creative?!
Joe-
No, of course you don’t need an MFA to be creative. I was just being a little hopeful that businesses might start giving more consideration to hiring MFAs as an alternative to MBAs and open up more opportunities to creative, artistic types.
