ACADEMICS
From the year 2002, thanks to Marcia Selsor, artist and educator at MSUB, it is possible to gain accreditation through Montana State University- Billings to grant college-level credits to any student interested in visiting La Meridiana. We are hoping that in the future more students will be interested in profiting from this opportunity. To attain college credit for one of our courses, it is necessary to fill out a simple application form through Montana State University-Billing . After the course is completed, our accredited teachers will fill out an evaluation and send it to MSU-Billings who will then grant the proper university credit to our students.
We have additionally begun a project here at La Meridiana to pool some of the resources we have available to us locally and develop a curriculum for both a 3-6 week ceramic intensive study abroad program and also a semester long program for university students. Our hope in the future is to offer a study abroad program at La Meridiana focusing on ceramics with a full course load in Italian art history, language, painting, drawing, printmaking, and even cooking. Because of our central location, field trips to Rome, Venice, Florence, Siena, and other towns can easily be planned.
