VES Concentrators: There’s More Than Meets The Eye (2 letters)

By Alexandra G. Russell and Katharina P. Von cieplak-von baldegg

To the editors:



Andrew Kreicher’s article about the visual and environmental studies concentration (“Very Easy Stuff,” column, Oct. 28) is offensive, poorly researched, and based upon a culturally illiterate viewpoint. I find philistines more embarrassing than artists.

Andrew Kreicher’s article reminds me of the seven-year-old who looks at a Mondrian and says "I could do that."
