To the Choir

The Bruce High Quality Foundation would like to remind you that "the $200,000-debt-model of art education is simply untenable." Instead, BHQF proposes exciting free alternatives, and encourages prospective students to Build Your Own University. Teaching artists who crave continuing education without the side effects, such as the strangled feeling that can come from being mired hopelessly in debt, might want to check it out.

Learning opportunities are listed below. I didn't make them up.

Bruce High Quality Foundation University is:

A university, a space for higher education and research, a community of scholars; an expansion of the BHQF practice to include more participants (that's where U come in); and a "fuck you"* to the hegemony of critical solemnity and market-mediocre despair.

To join a class, check their website or send an email to the listed address. Or come to Build Your Own University (BYOU) to find out more.
