Screw you man! I disagree! Strongly!
Getting my BFA was no cakewalk. We're in class 5 hours a week, but only get 3 credit hours for it. In some of my animation classes I did an extra 40+ hours a week in homework.
Glassblowing required 5 hours in class, plus 6 hours in lab each week. 11 hours total for 3 lousy credit hours. Not to mention the extra couple hours a week cold working (grinding) pieces.
An art degree isn't just a bunch of fun and easy classes. Its a lifestyle. And thats just the start. Once you've got your degree you still have to deal with the stereotype you exhibited so well in your post. That translates into a lot of difficulty finding a job.
I'm sorry if I've come off like an ass but its very tiring constantly hearing people tell me that my 4.5 years of school was easy, when it wasn't.
