I am open to changing my opinion, it isn't set in stone, so was wondering what specific art and design you are refferring to.
As with commerce, those who do so, after an education in art/design, will flourish...if they're any good.

Personally I think there's too much emphasis on higher education.

There are already too many Micky Mouse degree courses. With most not having a cat in Hell's chance of working in the field in which they've been trained.

If you're that good, and people want what you produce, you don't even need any formal arts training.
