wake up

BENNINGTON

wake up / In a sense, no matter what we studied, part of it is the same: It's a way of looking at the world, such that things exist in terms of their potential, not merely their actual, state. It's figuring out how on earth music and science, or painting and politics, could give you the same goose-bumps. Once you figure out how such seemingly disparate pursuits could amount to the exact same jump in your stomach--that is, once you find not what keeps you awake, but what wakes you up--nothing is excluded. / by BENNINGTON

facts are not enough.

BENNINGTON

facts are not enough. / Facts are not enough, there is more to learn. We recognize this about the arts, but the same is true of math, biology, political science-- anything. Facts are important, but they are easy; at Bennington we concentrate on the difficult. We ask you to imagine a book containing every conceivable fact in the world. Now describe something you have learned that would not be included. / by BENNINGTON

What do you see?

BENNINGTON

What do you see? / "Talent hits a target no one else can hit, genius hits a target that no one else can see." -Arthur Schopenhauer

The very structure of a Bennington education is designed to cultivate genius. It challenges you to work across traditional divides, to make connections and notice anomalies, to discover patterns where others thought there were none. To see what no one else can see. / by BENNINGTON
