Most ARTHI classes are usually a little too much work for them being 4 unit classes but Jeremy is a great professor and the class was often boring but sometimes interesting. I think your TA makes or breaks your grade tbh
Jeremy is very knowledgeable and clearly put a lot of effort into designing this course. It was pretty abstract and dull, but that's personal opinion. Some bits were interesting and I appreciate his enthusiasm. Section was annoying but grading on quizzes and essays was pretty easy. I never felt bogged down with work, but definitely pay attention.
was able to get an A in class even though I only attended two lectures. Two fun essays with a lot of room for creativity and a quiz each week that was take home. Just look through the slides or the reading and you'd get at least 80% of it right. The slides he has barely has any words on them though just pictures so you had to decipher it yourself.
Lectures were interesting but very little on slides so you'd have to pay attention or you miss important info, Jeremy took the time to learn everyone's name and talked to us before class so i appreciated that, easy to approach when you have issues, made difficult concepts easy to understand,
His lectures are interesting but sometimes it is easy to zone out. His class was relatively easy if you pay attention to lectures and do the readings. Overall an interesting and not too stressful class if you just keep up with the assignments. Everything is outlined very well in the beginning of the quarter.
I'm a political science major who loved this class. Jeremey White is clearly talented and knows his stuff. Not only, but he brings a unique perspective and share so many unique and diverse architectures. I never though I'd learn so much from an art history class! I would say if you pay attention, you'll be fine.
