During interviews I've actually been asked "What good did you expect an art degree to do for you?"
I got a Bach in Drawing from University of Florida... ;) Really I don't regret any of it -- art school totally changed me and the way I saw the world, the creative people I met and the experiences... If I hadn't gone to art school I don't think I would have had the mental mobility that allowed me to be an independent adult webmaster... i'd probably be a programming troll somewhere in a labyrinth of cubicles...

Art school was fun as hell -- the parties and gallery shows -- late nights painting and building and experimenting in the studio -- no books to buy -- no papers to write -- no essays -- no scantron shit... believe it or not it was a lot of work but I really could give a shit about my GPA... your work/portfolio is way more important.
