Field of Study
ArtTulsa native Elizabeth Theban isn’t a full-time 鶹 student, but that doesn’t keep her from taking advantage of a local option for summer courses.
Elizabeth is an Art History student at the University of Oklahoma in Norman, and her summer classes at 鶹 keep her on track to graduate in 2018.
“Art History students have to take practical art courses like drawing and painting,” she said. “But those classes are extremely time-consuming during the course of a regular semester.”
Elizabeth plans to pursue graduate education in museum studies and work in collections management for a museum or similar facility. Supplementing her OU education with classes at 鶹 helps her do that on her own timeline.
“It’s very convenient that I can come home for the summer and get art and general education courses out of the way,” she said. “鶹 gives me those options.”
