I loved Professor Welter. He was very passionate about the class material. The course was well organized and expectations were clear. Weekly readings and quizzes that could be taken twice for full credit on Canvas.

Professor Welter is a great lecturer and makes the class really easy to understand. I am by no means an art history major, but I found the content interesting and was able to be relatively successful in this class. Professor Welter is very passionate about architecture, and it really shows in this class.

Professor Welter is very thoughtful and articulate in his lectures. Not hard to do well on weekly quizzes if you take notes on the readings and lectures are very clear and easy to follow.

One of my favorite professors on campus, I would take any class with him. Since its an ES/AH class, much less architecture demanding with things like memorizing names and locations, but rather that you understand the concept. Do the quizes and readings every week and you'll do fine. Go to office hours and its a guaranteed grade boost by a letter.
