After reading through Yo Yo Ma’s thoughts and ideas on STEM, I have personally decided that STEM should remain its own and that art can easily be something enjoyed separately. Most people involved with art day to day think of it as something do delicate and beautiful on its own. Some artists would argue with equilibrium, empathy, and imagination to back them up as they fight for STEAM, but it isn’t really worth it since art could just remain its own.

For me personally, I feel like art is something that should be left out of the realm of science, technology, engineering, and math, and just left to its own too. With art included with these subjects, It would be silly since in the core subjects mentioned there isn’t that touch of freedom that there is with art. Even if people think that an equilibrium is created in the process of STEAM, you are still gonna have STEM thinkers and STEAM thinkers, and they may not end up clicking so easy.
