What is the future of arts education in secondary schools?
Q. I want to teach art in secondary schools, but I have heard a lot about how the NCLB has cut it out of middle and elementary schools and cut back significantly in high school. This is depressing to hear as i really want to be an art teacher, preferably high school. With Obama as president, are their going to be any changes with arts education? Or is one day, the arts going to be cut out of secondary schools forever?

A. Yes, that part of education is being greatly cut. Students who are artistically inclined, like myself, are being completely denied. As for President Obama, he's not by himself, and there are other things that he has put on his agenda BEFORE education - econ., war, etc. So you'll just need patience. in the meantime, I suggest you teach at a democratic school or Sudbury Valley model school. You are free to teach whatever you wish to eager and willing students.

What type of martial arts would be good for me?
Q. I'm paralyzed on my left side, thus meaning that my left arm is paralyzed but I can walk. Now, I said that to help explain this: I want to learn martial arts but I'm limited. My right leg and arm are really strong and since I have this dilemma I'm wondering what art would be good for me. What do you suggest? Karate, boxing, or any other I'm forgetting?

A. its not the style but finding an instructor that can work with and understand you limitations. not all instructor are good and even few can deal with limitations such as yours. but there are some that are very good at teaching people with various handicaps. you need to start by interviewing the instructors and find one that fits your needs,

What's the difference between culinary arts and baking?
Q. I really like making cakes and things, and I want a future that involves that. I looked at some University things and was wondering what the difference between baking and culinary arts is, like, isn't culinary arts just food in general? And which one is more successful in the world? Do bakers get paid more than cooks? And is there a chance to travel?

A. basically culinary arts involves cooking, not baking. you should take a pastry course if you want to learn more about cake making, and baking in general. as for salary, it kind of depends on how good you are and where you live, and the travel opportunities...that's kind of up to you
