Art at these schools?

I just visited UW, and was very impressed with their visual communication design program, but unfortunately don’t know jack squat about metal/jewelry arts. The art building was a bit disappointing for me though- it was a beautiful historic building that obviously got an interior renovation around the 60’s or 70’s, and is suffering from it still. I was told by an insider (nice to know architecture people on campus) that it’s slated for renovation, but since there are a lot of buildings on that list it’s hard to know the timeframe for it. The overall campus and city were beautiful though, and the department I looked at was decently equipped with computers and printing equipment.

While I’ve not visited them, I know Temple’s Tyler School of Art to be very well-respected. I found the representatives I met with in the fall to be quite snobby though.
