"If you're interested in art history, SUNY Potsdam is a great school to look at. I love the way they have the classes set up. We start with a broad overview and then we can continue on into more specific periods. I really got into the Egyptian period, and just loved it. The best part of the program is how much all of the professors care. I've never had trouble making an appointment to see a professor."
