General AQIP Requirements
EACH STUDENT MUST:
- Submit a disk of images or other documentation as specified by the instructor of the course. Images must be clear and professional, sized, adjusted and named correctly. Disks must be submitted on or before the first day of the last week of class, and reviewed by the instructor. You must submit one disk for each course you are enrolled in.
- Visit a museum or commercial gallery, and submit an original 500-1000 word reaction paper, in Microsoft Word format to each instructor. You only need to do one museum visit per semester, no matter how many courses you are enrolled in.
- Make an effort to show your work. This could take several forms—you could enter a juried competition, organize a group or solo show, complete a design job for a client, or get a commission. You only need to complete one exhibition/commission per semester, no matter how many courses you are enrolled in.
Failure to complete any of these three requirements in a satisfactory manner will result in a grade of “I” or incomplete to be entered for EVERY art course the student is enrolled in for that semester. The “I” will be removed and the appropriate letter grade entered when the student has fulfilled all three requirements. Details about each requirement are linked above.
