Perhaps only at an art school?

While hanging out with my friends at the school cafe this week, Michael walked in, and we all asked him about his coffee cup. Not in that oh my god. look at your coffee cup sort of way, and not in the hey, what's with the mondo sculpture possibly blocking your options of drinking the coffee way. It was simply, "what's on your cup?"

I firmly believe that art school has the ability to ingrain in our minds what Joseph Beuys (a personal hero of mine) tried so hard to instill in the minds of others, the idea of Social Sculpture:
Every human being is an artist, a freedom being, called to participate in transforming and reshaping the conditions, thinking and structures that shape and condition our lives.
