If I take a dump on the Quran and call it "art", can I get grants/scholarships? I was reading about "Piss Christ". In case you haven't heard about it: Piss Christ is a controversial photograph by American photographer Andres Serrano. It depicts a small plastic crucifix supporting the body of Jesus Christ submerged in a glass of the artist's urine. Some have suggested that the glass may also contain the artist's blood. The piece was a winner of the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art's "Awards in the Visual Arts" competition, which is sponsored in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, a United States Government agency that offers support and funding for artistic projects Anyhow, I was thinking of creating my masterpiece "Crap Quran" and trying to get funding out of it. Will it work?

Paying and preparing for Grad school? Grants and Scholarships? I'm a junior in undergrad this fall with high hopes to make it into a high ranking grad school. I am majoring in English, with a possible Spanish minor. I have about a 3.7 overall GPA and a 3.8 major GPA. I have just recently began studying for the GRE. Here's my problem. I am enrolled in a private liberal arts college that I absolutely love, but I am barely able to pay for it, I am holding on by a thread, even with all my scholarships. We aren't exactly a poor family, but medical conditions and etc. have made it a little difficult. I know my dreams are big, and probably impractical to get into a top grad school, but is there anything I can start doing to prepare and get money? My parents and I don't qualify for private loans, is there enough grant and scholarship money to cover all my expenses? Where should I be looking for these grants and scholarships? I appreciate any and all advice you can give. I am trying so hard to make it through undergrad, I'm not sure how I'll make it through grad school. Again, thank you.
