and Schroeder would love “music appreciation” class

You’re off to a good start, Sally.

Let’s see Sally’s reaction to “Essay Appreciation” class.

Lets see how she appreciates math. Or social studies. (I wonder if “they” still teach social studies. I know they did when this strip was first printed. For I was in school then myself.)

“I said, I appreciate that, but could you please explain about the 50 ways?”

If only she could appreciate her brother.

I’m sure Misters Fleming, Carney, Buchwald, Garfunkel and Linkletter appreciate your appreciation!

As George said, I’m an art adorer.

When I was in college, I was required to take a Human Relations class. To get out of it, I told the dean that I was human and that I can relate with others. Still had to take the class.

If you recall Sally’s wire coat-hanger sculpture, you’ll understand that the scales of innocence fall from her eyes in the near future.

(Not Sally’s fault, her teacher was a fool.)

Yeah? Wait until you get to college level “art appreciation” and are expected to memorize every damn artist that ever lived.

I bet we all do.

Uh, Sally? That’s not what the class is all about…!

Art appreciation. That’s when you can sell a painting for more than you paid for it, right?
