I really liked this GE and I am not usually one who is interested in Art History. I enjoyed the format of the class since Professor Brown focused on only one major "site" per lecture and so we were given an in-depth review about a single piece of art/architecture rather than having to memorize a bunch of small details about a variety of different pieces of artwork. Tests are in short-answer and essay format but Professor Brown gave us a general list on what the possible prompts for all the test questions might be so it was relatively easy to study for. During the class, my TA got sick and had to step out and Professor Brown filled in and he's really just a sweet old guy. Unfortunately, he himself became ill so we had guest lecturers come in for the final two weeks but honestly I was impressed with how well the two new lecturers incorporated themselves into the class. While I still preferred Professor Brown, their lectures were still fairly engaging so I commend the Art History program for being able to adjust so quickly and still deliver quality education.

The professor is really knowledgeable about the course material. The required reading was all uploaded onto CCLE, so I didn't have to spend extra money on reading materials (which more professors should do). The workload was manageable with six 3-page essays. There isn't a clear rubric of how the professor grades the papers, but I think he just checks for a few things. If you attend lectures and utilize the online reading, pretty sure you can get an A in this class. He's not too harsh of a grader on the essays, and there isn't a particular format that he wants it in. There are no midterms nor a final! What's not to love?
