Saving...
It had been [illegible] consigned to art schools = academics He had this need--apparently the compulsion to study the human brain and figuratively speaking disecting, [extracting?] the kernals, the goodies, & trying to find the answers out what make it tick. Under his microscopic eye & ect he was able to [invent?]. His achievements included intelligence tests and musical abilities and SEASHORE I feel like I was doubly blessed--not only for the decision-- to push GW in the Art dept but particularly that he personally assumed charge of my advanced work. Could anything have been more rightfully resolved for me? In other times another age I could imagine [the imbalance the disciples felt as they sat at the feet?] fabled Greek philosophers as they gathered Knowledge. Could anything have been more perfect for me? I was almost unable to burst with joy. I croaked with a love of accomplishment & doing. The Art Dept was geared for undergrad [illegible] leading to a BA!... At that time MFA was forseen. I am sure however, a MFA would have been equally appropriate and justified with the curriculum presented.
