I really enjoyed reading your essay, I liked hearing about physical therapy and the way the arts would impact your projected career. I would consider clearing up your thesis just so you set the tone for your essay as to whether you want the arts to be apart of your major or not. And then use this in your conclusion to wrap the whole essay up. I think you did a really good job analyzing the quotes in relation to your thesis. I would consider explaining the quote a bit more just to create a clear transition to your analysis. Overall, your essay is very well written and I enjoyed reading it.
