ART 1001
INTR TO FINE ARTS
The class is in an auditorium anthat seats around 800 people and there are probably 600 in the class. Speaks in monotone and has an accent that u have to really pay attention to hear. Material is really boring and he isn't a very interesting lecturer. he reminds me of the teacher in charlie brown. Extremely easy to cheat in his class and everyone does. 2 proctors in an auditorium of 600 students. 3 25-question exams and 2 2-page essays. I would recommend this class only because ur entire grade is based of 5 things and u don't have to go to class.

ARTH 1441
HISTOR SURVEY ARTS
Pros: He knows his art...
Cons: Everything he teaches is on his powerpoint slides. He teaches straight from the slides, so it's very boring. On top of that, his class is one of the first ones in the morning, so that doesn't help keep you awake.
I like Dr. Spieth, I just don't like art. It bores me. And I'm not a morning person. Thank goodness all of his slides are online!

ARTH 1441
HISTOR SURVEY ARTS
Pros: EXTREMELY EASY
Cons: The most boring class I have ever been to in my whole life! I literally never go.
This class is so boring but if you want an easy A take it! As long as you study the straightforward notes its smooth sailing! The two projects are two short papers which aren't hard at all.

Good but boring class.
