    1. You will fill in the information for the student, when you have completed your information, submit it.
    2. The form will be routed to your faculty Sponsor to sign.
    3. They will sign before the form returns to Art Advising to be processed and added to your schedule.
  3. Be on the lookout for a confirmation email that the Independent Study has been added to your schedule. If you do not receive a confirmation email, then your Independent Study has not been added to your schedule.

Credit hours: The student will earn one hour of academic credit for every 45 hours (3 hours per week) per semester of supervised work. Fall and spring semesters are each fifteen weeks. The usual number of hours is 9 hours of work per week per semester for 3 semester credit units. The maximum number of work hours that may be required is 270 per semester for six credit units.

*Summer Sessions are 5 weeks long; 1 credit unit would require 9 hours a week. 3 credit units would require 27 hours work per week.

Congrats to Nathan Abel (MFA '09, Printmaking), who will host the opening reception for his exhibition "Nesting" on Friday, Feb. 3, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Nicolaysen Art Museum in Casper, Wyoming.

"In Nesting, the work tells the story of when my wife and I began planning a family. We anticipated problems but had no idea of the long and traumatic path ahead of us. It is through my work I hope to shed light on infertility, child loss, and adoption. I want to show the hardships and joy that can come with creating a family and honor the experience we and so many others have been through." - Nathan Abel
