Winter 2023 - L class. Wtf are these past reviews talking about. The class is NOT an easy A. Literally memorizing useless stuff no one gaf about. Professor expects us to memorize everything to the exact detail of a list of art pieces for the exams. Weekly readings were boring asf too and sometimes don't make sense. I found myself spending more time on this useless GE than my other stem classes. Professor just be sayin words during lectures and not really any engagement. The lectures are a try not to sleep challenge too so good luck with that if you want to take this class. Stem majors, if you are in need and are searching for a GE cuz all the classes are filled up, FORGET about this class right away.

Fall 2017 - Dr. Cohen is not often the best lecturer and her voice is often quiet, but she is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her subject (Paris and her beloved Sainte-Chapelle). The readings for the class were extensive and difficult to grasp. Initially I read them all, but it became burdensome, plus we never discussed them in class, so I gave up reading them altogether after the mid-term. The exams were relatively easy, slides, short answer questions, etc. There was a lot to memorize, but that's an art history course so I cannot complain too much about that. I'm taking her again this quarter and am enjoying the class. After two classes with her, it seems like she teaches at a graduate level, perhaps that's just me, but that's what it seems like based off of lecture and reading materials.
