While this makes sense, as dogs are one of the most common pets, there are several other animals that would make great pets. “I would really like a cat,” sophomore Ellie Featherstone said. “I’ve always been a cat person or a rabbit person.

Working on the sketchbook project during class, Basic Art student Molly Boker (23) colors leaves that she drew. “The sketchbooks are for everyone to create their own ideas based off a small prompt like the 3 cartoon/animations and make them scary and ugly sketchbook,” Boker (23) said. “My favorite sketchbook so far is drawings about food and the 3 things we’re excited about for fall.” Four sketchbook projects have been assigned.
