<p>Of course. Bowdoin’s curriculum does so by having all students fill out certain requirements. So even if you are interested in visual arts, you will have to take classes in different fields. As a first year, you will also have to take a freshman seminar. It’s really difficult to just go through all four years at any liberal arts college focusing on only one subject. </p>
<p>I like the art department. Visual arts is actually a requirement now. Although you may not have as many options as an art school (well that is a given), there are still plenty to choose from. The art history department is also well received. Lastly, there is a visual arts/art history interdisciplinary major. Brunswick is home to many small art galleries. They recently opened this space called Frontier Cafe down by Fort Andross. Great food, a small cinema and a huge gallery space.</p>
