I always found it rather baffling, and frustrating, that RISD was so phenomenal in so many ways when it came to the artistic side, but didn't offer a single class (that I could see) that instructed students on legal rights per art, promoting their work, or the real-world issues of work-for-hire and consumer demands.
I wish, so hard, that I got to have classes like that in my design program. Admittedly, I'm at a large private university and not an art school specifically, and most people don't even know our department exists, but still. Yes. Art majors especially need classes on the practical things relating to their work.
