i just like the phrase den of fornication and moral decrepitude and since I can't justly apply that to all universities, art institutes are the fall guy...

now why did you have to drag lee majors into this? he needed a job real bad.
Meh, you can teach that too. Creativity is a process of inquisition. The hard part of creativity is framing the problem. Once you define the problem for yourself (this doesn't mean a practical problem solving or finding *the* soltion to it), you can approach it, and this reveals ideas to you. Those ideas guide the logic of the work, how it communicates. Once you know the problem, what seemed unexpected, arbitrary or irrational, aka "creative," should appear rational and required. Some are always going to be better than others at that osrt of thing, but it's something everyone can learn to a fair extent.
It is still very difficult to TEACH mental flexibility needed for creativity. I've seen dozens of books on it and even had classes to loosen up the mind. But some mindsets are just simply not receptive to it no matter what you do. However something like MATH can be taught because it follows dedicated patterns.
That said, much of what is taught inthese schools are the same. Many of the classes dont; actually require an "artists touch", just a working knowledge of what to do and how to do it. Which is NOT creativity.
