Is there any value to studying acting for 2-3 years?

<p>yes, that is the remark a friend’s daughter made, and we live in the metropolitan region. I made the point to suggest that in the general public, there is very limited knowledge of theater programs, and Tisch is one of the most familiar to the uninitiated.</p>

<p>I also didn’t intend to start a comparison of which schools are most known to the general public, but just to make the point that people say that we Tisch parents think that our school is the best, one of the very best, or the only one out there, but that in reality, it is just others who are saying this and it is not coming from any informed perspective.</p>

<p>Just as I don’t think that there is any one BA school – whether for theater or general liberal arts – that is “the best” neither do I think there is a “best” or even a “best group” of schools. It is all about what is right for the individual.</p>

<p>That is why I will never be defensive about Tisch but neither will I just let slaps at it slide by without a comment from what my daughter has experienced there.</p>
