None of my English teachers, would in their wildest dreams, believe that 
I about to do.

Parsing my statement, removing the clause, "When you presented you (sic) 
idea to the Council," and the modifiers, "of using the students interest 
in art as a vehicle to engage them in a socially positive group 
interaction" leaves "I though your (Chris') idea ... was noble.

noble, 1 a: possessing outstanding qualities, 3 a: possessing very high 
or excellent qualities or properties  b: very good or excellent   5: 
possessing, characterized by, or arising from superiority of mind ...
{Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary}

So yes, on reflection I think Chris' idea (objective) is noble. 

Yes Sarah, I too think art can be noble. Lets hold that for an other 
thread and separate opinions of art from the evaluation of teaching our 
youth.
