Aaron Taslitz was in the fine arts building Wednesday morning to finish up some reading for his summer political science class, his last course before graduating from IU. "I come to the fine arts building for the amazing speed of the computers in the computer lab and the A/C in the building." Taslitz was familiar with the building after taking photography courses, he said. "I went through the beginner, intermediate and advanced photography classes," Taslitz said. "I should have majored in photography, but I am very pleased that I did have a comprehensive education at IU." Fine arts have been more than just a hobby for Taslitz though, he said. "I really appreciate applying the fine arts to me academic work here at IU," Taslitz said. "It helped me more than the fine art itself. I didn't understand the concept of, this is what the assignment is, and if you don't do what is says, then you won't do well. I didn't understand that concept at all until I started taking photography classes. I was told you have to take the photograph like this, and it has to be in this setting, and everything needs to work out. I applied that to my upper level undergraduate classes here and I started doing very well." Samantha Starr and Samantha Starr
