Are you an arts alum?
The College of the Arts is participating in the 2016 Strategic National Arts Alumni Project (SNAAP) – a one-of-a-kind survey that explores the lives of arts alumni nationwide.
This Fall, all arts graduates of Kennesaw State University will receive an email invitation to participate in the on-line survey. By verifying that our alumni office has a current email address, alumni can be sure not to miss their chance to share their experiences and help shape the future of arts education across the country and at the College of the Arts. Update your information here.
After completing the survey, alumni will have access to a site where they can see how their experience compares with those of other arts graduates across North America. They can see where arts graduates live, where they work, what they earn and how their arts educations have influenced their lives.
The time our alumni spend sharing their experiences will help the College of the Arts, along with many other participating institutions across the country, better prepare students for success, whether they stay in the arts or use what they’ve learned in other professional fields.
