In the midst of examining college art museums in our country the desire to attend them increased. There are a number of spectacular art museums in their own right but placed within the context of a college the art museum become a beautifully vital and dynamic matrix of inspiration, creativity, and education that can revolutionize the spirit. Our country's college art museums are yet another testament to the ever changing and enduring human spirit.
Nick Plato, the article's author, said this about the list: "My interest in art was most awakened when I backpacked through Europe with my wife. This experience did more than open my eyes to the accomplishment of the human spirit; it revitalized and renewed my imagination. These college art museums are places our humanity can be explored and celebrated, and thus, they need to be brought to the attention of us all."
