Freshman Emmalee Lawrence majors in studio art and hopes to help others through art therapy. “In [art therapy] you can work in a hospital, prison or psychiatric ward and help those people cope with what they’re going through and express themselves through art,” Lawrence said. “For me, [art] is a therapeutic thing. When I create, even if it’s something I’m doing for someone else, it’s still very calming, and I think I can help someone else with that as well.”
