  <title><![CDATA[Bankoff on the Influence of Arts and Culture]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Speaking at a recent Rotary Club meeting, <a href="http://www.iac.gatech.edu/faculty-and-staff/faculty/bio/bankoff" target="_self"><strong>Joe Bankoff</strong></a>, chair of <strong>The Sam Nunn School of International Affairs</strong>, asked the 200 club members "to stand if they had participated in some form of arts activity in their youth like music, dance, painting, or theater: nearly every person present stood up. He then asked those standing if they made a living today in an arts-related field and nearly everyone standing sat down. The point drove home the positive influence of arts and culture on the lives of so many of us."&nbsp;<em>Source: <a href="http://www.bizjournals.com/atlanta/print-edition/2012/11/23/funding-the-arts-money-minds-and.html?page=all" target="_blank">Atlanta Business Chronicle</a>, November 23, 2012</em></p>]]></body>
