Personal property in LOCKERS, ARTWORK in CLASSROOMS and STUDIOS, and BICYCLES on bike racks and elsewhere on the property, must be removed by Thursday, May 22.

All artwork and personal belongings left in the building after the deadline will be subject to removal by the Facilities Department. The School will not be responsible for the damage or loss of any personal property after this date.

Individuals may petition for a brief extension by picking up a request form in the Student Affairs office. Pre-approval is required.  

Beginning at 7 am on May 19, mySMFA will re-open for online pre-registration for next semester. The system will remain open for all students until 10 pm on May 23. This is your chance to fill in your schedule, or to make changes based upon suggestions from your Review Board.

For suggestions and guidance on course selection and to check that you are fulfilling the correct requirements for your program, make an appointment to see an advisor in the Academic Affairs Office (617-369-3612).

Students can now have their artwork digitally photographed at a reasonable cost. The Visual Resources Librar (VRL) welcomes student requests for digital images! Take advantage of this great service! Digital imaging includes automated image sharpening and color calibration followed by fine-tuning in Photoshop.

JPEGS and/or TIFFS can be created for students. JPEG files are approximately 1024 x 768 pixels or 1½ MB. TIFF files are 300 dpi. Students are given a CD/DVD of their images. The Visual Resources Library also burns a CD/DVD of each work order for their files.

Studio space at 230 The Fenway will be available (to SMFA undergraduate students enrolled at the School during the 07/08 school year) for rental this summer from May 26 through August 15. If you choose to rent a studio during the summer months, you will be given a private space within a group studio. Summer building hours for the Museum School will determine studio access. Summer access policy is outlined in the Undergraduate Student Handbook.

Why should you participate?
Students on committees are the representatives and liaisons for their peers in the institution’s decision making processes. It is an opportunity to influence change in all areas of the School. However, the role carries a responsibility and accountability to the student body to represent their best interests. Committee work is a serious and intensive commitment and should not be entered into lightly; nomination(s) deserve the utmost consideration and should be made with sincerity and respect for the important work that needs to be done.

How can you participate or nominate someone to do so?
In past years student representatives were identified for committees early in the fall term. The timing of this often proved difficult. For the 2008/09 academic year the process will change to allow more time for identifying student representatives. The process for nominating students to serve on committees in the fall will take place this spring. By doing so we hope to do a better job of securing full representation by students, including alternates, on all committees; an added benefit is that this will more closely resemble the process for determining faculty representation on committees.

If you are interested in nominating a fellow student or yourself for a committee seat you may do so by downloading and submitting a Student Committee Representative Nomination Form. Forms are also available in the Academic Affairs and Student Affairs offices. Completed forms should be submitted to the Academic Affairs office.
