Read the article. In all honesty, I am not nearly as knowledgeable in salary levels for college educators/deans/administrators…nor am I well-versed in the politics of a non-profit school vs. a for-profit school.

But with my eyes I have seen the integration of SCAD into the fabric of Savannah life. I have seen personal growth in my daughter that I directly attribute to her presence at that school (which I agree could have happened anywhere…just so happens it was here). The visiting lectures she’s had the opportunity to go to have expanded her ideas of where to find her career path. The care and concern the student adviser has shown to my daughter indicates to me that they WANT her to succeed.

Expensive school? You betcha. But for my money the reputation and professional contacts our daughter will get are priceless, and if the statistics for graduates plays out as they say, she’ll be employed in her field of study within 6 months of graduation.
