Important Student Teaching Announcement
To all students considering doing their student teaching in Spring 2008 or Fall 2008:
Come to the student teacher placement orientation meeting
on Monday, September 17, 5:30 – 6:30 PM in South 109.
(Lois will stay until about 7:15 p.m. for those who have a class until 6:30.)
Lois Hetland, Placement Coordinator for MassArt Student Teaching, needs to know who is getting ready to student teach in 2008, both spring and (next) fall terms. You’ll get a Student Teaching Handbook, fill out an information form about needs and preferences for your placement, and have time to ask questions. The placement process happens throughout the term before you student teach, and it often involves several school visits and conversations with potential supervising teachers. This meeting is the kick off for setting up spring-term placements, and we’ll also bring fall 2008 placements into view.
See you on Monday!
(Please contact Lois Hetland at Lois.Hetland@massart.edu or x7528, if you are considering student-teaching in spring or fall 2008 but are unable to attend the meeting.)

Art for our Sake – By Ellen Winner and Lois Hetland
School Arts Classes Matter More than Ever – But Not for the Reasons You Think
By Ellen Winner and Lois Hetland
(This article appeared in the Boston Sunday Globe on September 2, 2007.)
Why do we teach the arts in schools?
In an educational system strapped for money and increasingly ruled by standardized tests, arts courses can seem almost a needless extravagance, and the arts are being cut back at schools across the country.
Faculty Exhibition
No Ego: New Paintings by Steve Locke
August 27 – October 4
Steve Locke has a BS from Boston University and a BFA and MFA from MassArt in Boston. His 2006 installation at the Artists Foundation Main Gallery, When You’re a Boy, is made up of countless sketched portraits of men, each capturing some physical or psychological trait. Locke was awarded a 2002 Artist’s Fellowship at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine and was nominated in 2006 for the Institute of Contemporary Art Boston Artist’s Prize. His work continues to explore relationships between men.
