    What universities have the best art history programs?

    I want to major in Art History, and my main interest is in classical European painting and sculpture. What universities have a strong program that will suit my interest? I'd prefer to be on the east coast or in Texas. Chicago sounds nice, too. =)
    But basically I'd be interested in learning about schools anywhere.

    Oh, and I thought I'd mention that my own artistic abilities are pretty much nonexistant at this point. A program focused solely on art history or one where there's a lot of help for beginning artists would be good.

    Chicago would be my first choice in the US. Apparently Yale is also very strong. Otherwise the Sorbonne springs to mind.

    For an emerging program, check out Art History at UIC. http://www.uic.edu/depts/arch/ah/

    It's not as prestigious as, say, U of C, but it's been getting more attention in academic circles recently.
