"Following the examples of my mentors, I have been instilled with a responsibility to nurture the next generations of artists and scholars. In the art history curriculum, we still discuss the social histories of monuments and objects, however, today's Wells students learn how to look critically at our increasingly image-saturated culture. Such reasoning, along with the ability to translate the visual into the verbal are exceptional and powerful skills highly valued in our society.”
