Faced with declining enrollment and increased competition from not-for-profit organizations offering inexpensive art courses for
new hobbyists, the for-profit Delta Academy of Art has steadfastly stayed true to its mission of offering high-quality classical art instruction for both beginners and advanced artists at high tuition. Delta has been noted for the excellence of its artistic training for decades. This is an example of a. adhesion to the status quo.
b. lack of an envisioned future.
c. competence becoming a liability.
d. failure to have a clear core ideology.
Status Quo is a Latin term which means 'existing state.' In literal terms, it means the affairs the pre-existed.
<u>In the given scenario, Delta Academy has stuck to its previously defined policy of providing high-quality instruction in a classical art for beginners as well as advanced artists. Even after facing competition with not-for-profit organizations that offered inexpensive courses in arts, Delta Academy remained at the top in terms of artistic training. This is an example of adhesion to the status quo (sticking to the state of affairs that already existed). The competition in the market did not infer the reputation of the Delta Academy</u>.
