Students interested in enrolling should place themselves on the waitlist for this course. Studio
Art classes are direct to waitlist with an enrollment limit of zero so that Studio Art majors and
minors can be given enrollment priority. Students planning to major or minor in Studio Art
should place themselves on the waitlist and then write to finearts@brandeis.edu about their
intention to declare. This class is also great for newer students interested in taking a studio art
course, so we will also set aside spaces for first and second year students. Non-Studio Arts
students will be enrolled off the waitlist based on availability. Enrollment in this class will begin
on November 22, so waitlisted students should check their email regularly.  (Do not contact the
instructor about enrollment in this course; only write to finearts@brandeis.edu.)
