ARTHI113B . Paul C 12 Years Ago

This class covers a lot of images and material, but if you go to class and do the readings, you will be prepared for the exams/paper. She is fair in her grading, and is very responsive in email and office hours for helping and understanding assignments and material.

HIST113B . Paul C 15 Years Ago

Paul is a great Professor. Very knowledgeable and makes lectures interesting. I am not an art history major but I really enjoyed this class. Midterm, 5-6 page paper, Final.

ARTHI113B . Paul C 18 Years Ago

If you plan to go to italy, then you should take this class. Dr. Paul is clear, her lectures are alright, she asks a lot of questions about the reading during class and on the test. Overall i ended up making like 120 note cards 60 for midterm and 60 for final. If you try then you will do fine

ARTHI6B . Paul C 7 Months Ago

If you enjoy Renaissance/Baroque art, then this is a class for you, if not, find a different Art GE. 6B with Paul is a harder class than other ARTHI courses I have taken, even as an Art History major. Mandatory attendance and I felt that it was hard to know how to succeed and do well on essays and blue-book tests. If you're taking for a GE, don't.

ARTHI6B . Paul C 8 Months Ago

Entertaining and passionate professor who is easily accessible, although the course is pretty much as difficult as GE's get. Mandatory attendance, 2 weekly readings, bluebook essay midterm and final with upwards of 85 paintings that need to be memorized for each exam. Getting an A is definitely feasible, but will take a good amount of work.

ARTHI6B . Paul C 8 Months Ago

So incredibly boring and gives no actual value to the taker. For this class you have to memorize the name, date, author, and original location for 80+ images along with having some background of each image. Doesn't post lecture slides and slides have no writing so to do well you have to pay attention constantly. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND
