142F was a new class and extremely disorganized. Wittman did not post the readings on time and was behind in the course materials. He was vague and unclear about what would be on the exams.

Professor Wittman gives entertaining lectures and clearly is very passionate about his subject. Very understanding professor with minimal homework so the class is relatively easy if you show up for lecture

Only graded by two papers and midterm+final so no real homework. There are short readings outside of class but I never did a single one. The material is not easy and there is a lot of memorization, but it was really easy for me to pay attention since he's such a passionate and interesting guy. Will go out of my way to take a class with him again.

It was definitely one of the more difficult prereqs I've taken, but if you are prepared for lots of reading, heavy (and quick-worded) lectures, studying, and you really enjoy learning about architecture worldwide, I would recommend this course! Despite the exams being on the harder side of the scale, I learned quite a lot and had an awesome TA.

It is graded by 3 things, midterm, paper, and final (30% each) with 10% coming from attendance and quizzes from sections. Midterm and final are both fill in the blanks or multiple choice and essay. I got a 96, 94, 96 respectively. I am an art history student and I would recommend taking another class if only for GE or take is as P/NP.

Very passionate Professor and very articulate. His lect
