Black Mountain College was one the most
non-conformist educational institutions that has ever existed. It was in
North Carolina, and lasted for 24 years from 1933 to 1957.
The school was designed to be experimental, open, and fully
interdisciplinary.
It had a tremendous effect on the creative arts in the
United States and the world.
Great avant-garde practitioners of literature, music,
dance, and the visual arts both taught and studied at Black Mountain, in an
atmosphere of mutual support and honest criticism.
In my opinion, more schools of this kind should exist nowadays, because being based on grades doesn't really show what the students are capable of.
