Sanjit Sethi: President of MCAD

The new President of MCAD (Minneapolis College of Art & Design), Sanjit Sethi, joined us on Legacy Matters to talk higher education and acclimating to the Midwest. A New Yorker by birth, Sanjit previously directed the Corcoran School of the Arts and Design at George Washington University (GWU) in Washington D.C. Sanjit brings a fresh perspective to higher education, exploring the emergent ideas around cultural and social viability. How best can we prepare students as resilient problem-solvers? Art education need not be focused solely on the craft, but offers an opportunity for students to “cross-pollinate” across seemingly disparate disciplines. We also explore “hidden history”; the stories not brought to light and the trauma attached to certain events and places. A bigger discussion than we can adequately cover in our talk, but an important one to continue in the future. Thank you, Sanjit, for sharing your thoughts with us!
