TJC has six student pathways. These pathways are a roadmap to graduation with a degree or certificate in your field of interest. This blog is part of the pathway series that introduces each student pathway and provides information and guidance on if this might be the best fit for you.
In the words of prominent civil rights leader Howard Thurman, “Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” Excellence and creativity in the arts and humanities boost morale in societies and inspire others to follow their passions. Within the Creative & Communication Arts Pathway, you can make a living by doing what makes you come alive.
Do you dream of running an art studio? Do people tell you that you have a way with words? Does the way society works draw you in and make you curious? Are you administrative and a strong communicator? If so, the Creative & Communication Arts Pathway could be right for you!
