ABSTRACT
There are many areas ripe for student projects in this discipline; an example class study is outlined. As the baby boom generation becomes the elderly, there will be increased demand for art therapy, not only for its healing potential, but also for its preventive potential. Students do not have to be art therapy majors to explore projects in this area; many students including majors from other fields have been interested and done rewarding research projects. Art therapy aims to help people experiencing emotional and psychological challenges achieve personal well-being and improved levels of function.
