heh, it is a *ton* of fun, and moreso because there's only 4 of us and two lecturers, but it means we can't just putz around. The official title of my degree is "Master of Letters in the History of Art: Decorative Arts and Design History". Basically...we cover everything from tapestries to tea kettles to tables to silverwear to paintings. At the moment, we're cranking through the 16th century, focusing on British and Scottish country houses for examples. We're lucky to have the Burrel collection 15 minutes away, Stirling castle 45 minutes away, Kelvingrove museum is a 2 minute walk (literally), Edinburgh is a 2 hr drive, and London is an hour long 99p Easy Jet flight away. Location, location, location.
