To reduce this, alcohol tile painting was brought to campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A&amp;M-Texarkana Counseling Services brought in a professional painter to give a one-on-one \/ private session to students. Students were given three tiles to make beautiful tile \u201cpaintings.\u201d The tiles could have been used as a coaster, a painting, or however one would like it to be. After being given the tiles, the painter gave students a brief tutorial on how the process works. She gave them an apron, a various array of colors, paintbrushes, and alcohol so students could spread their colors to make a masterpiece. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event lasted from about 11-2 in Eagle Lounge of the University Center and students left with an urge for more.
