has to say this... SCAD equestrian studies make NO SENSE!! i mean really you are paying money for a class titled.. Fundamentals of Flat Work, and Developing the Horse's Balance... WTF?! ok I know I am a both art person and a horse person .. but I would not pay that price for that bull of a class.. that stuff takes years to learn, not 10 weeks.. besides.. what if the horse you are working with gets hurt or is lame.. then what? I mean it makes no sense for those things to be at THIS school.. what dose HOW TO RIDE A HORSE? have to do with ART or DESIGN?? HMMMMMM??! how about go take some riding lessons and dont waste your time..or better yet.. get some coconuts and pretend.. >:[

AHHH HA!
ok so basically it looks like they are not making any sense..
"Professionals in the equine industry use specific skills and apply principles of horsemanship and standards of equine care and performance within the equine industry and management of equestrian-related businesses or events" ..

umm last time I checked.. most stables do not require a DEGREE! and as for other care. go to VET SCHOOL! .. hmm equestrian related business events.. ..uhh u mean HORSE SHOWS? umm easy. you pay, compete, and leave.. and if running,, you take money, hire judge, and they leave.. ya u need a 4 year college degree for that...

O AND they only seem to have ONE professor.. Andrea M. Wells

google times

"she may know her stuff but she is not a true horsewoman and did many unethical things at the college when I was there...she plays favorites and was recently fired b/c she would lease out school horses over the summer and give non college students lessons off the poor school horses that work so hard all the time."

from a former student..

oo nice one lady.. good job..



I could pick the rest of the dumb statements apart.. but I digress.. point is.. this is
ART SCHOOL .. ok there are plenty of schools for EQUESTRIAN studies.. that I bet are way better qualified.. and have vet/ farrier/ animal studies.. not life drawing..
o LOOK I CAN DRAW A PONY!.. ummm ya but can you figure out what to do with this foundering horse.. umm NO! blahhhg

In theory I should be thrilled to see horse studies at my ART school.. but it dose not belong here it is a waste of my school money to be paying for it..

yes I still ride, if I had time I would more but SCAD seems to have taken that away from me as well.. but I try my best..
