Creativity the Way of the Future

One reason "the arts" are so important is because creativity is the skill that helps a person to be forward thinking enough to change with the rapid flow of information. This can be a tremendous asset to the business they end up working for. Companies are going to be on the look out for sharp creative people that think outside of the box and will keep their company competitive with the ever changing business environment. Teaching students to take tests and think exactly like eachother may not be the best route of education. Thank goodness for the arts that encourage exploration and creative thinking.
