The other day I went to Singapore Art Museum (because you can enter for free by producing matric cards), I found on the guest book a list of my fellow schoolmates. To my surprise, they’re all from engin, either second or third years. And there’s even two freshmen with no matric card asking for entry with their school admission letter.

 

It puzzled me why engin students had such an enthusiasm for art, and have led me to the following hypotheses.

 

Hypothesis 1: 

Engineers have always had an unexpressed liking for art.

 

Hypothesis 2:

Engineers do not prioritize art in their pyramids of needs. While arts students probably have visited the museums during its non-free days, engin students must wait until it’s free to visit.

 

Hypothesis 3:

Engin students and arts students both have visited the art museum during its non-free days, but after it became free, arts students ceased to visit it, thus their names not shown on the guest book.
