ARTHI6K . Khoury N N A Month Ago

Professor Khoury was very unorganized, often went on tangents, and slides weren't very clear. There are two papers, midterm, and final. Attendance is mandatory but the slides aren;t helpful I only passed the class because of the webcam slides she posted after each week.

Super sweet and really knows what she's talking about. All the information is given in lectures and sections and if you go to them it's pretty easy.

ARTHI6K . Khoury N N 2 Months Ago

Prof. Khoury is a nice person but might be one of the worst lecturers I've ever had. Aside from her lack of technological capabilities, the lectures themselves are disorganized and uninteresting. There is no textbook that students have to get, she provides PDFs of any readings needed. Unfortunately, the readings are usually unhelpful.

ARTHI6K . Khoury N N 2 Months Ago

Professor is very sweet and clearly passionate about the subject but she's extremely disorganized and the lectures are very hard to follow because she goes on tangents and doesn't present information in an organized way. This is a horrible class to take as a GE, if you need to fulfill one of its GE requirements just take a different class.

As much as prof Khoury is clearly a professional in her field, that does not benefit you as the student. Her lectures often go off into tangents and you never know whether you will need anything she says on the exams, WHICH ARE DETAILED with very niche questions (that sometimes will include a random reading). TAs are your saviours in this class

ARTHI6K . Khoury N N 3 Months Ago

I took this class as a GE but would not do that again, it was too much work and very confusing. Professor Khoury lectures are confusing and poorly organize. The assigned readings aren't super helpful and are very dense. The only saving grace was section because my TA was able to clarify topics.

ARTHI6K . Khoury N N 3 Months Ago

Prof Khoury is super sweet. She doesn't post her slides, so lectures are mandatory for detailed notes. If you aren't an Art History major or interested in the discipline, this class is pretty hard. Only two writing assignments, midterm and final. If you don't want to think critically or use your brain, do not take this class.

ARTHI132J . Khoury N N 3 Months Ago

Professor is very hard to follow. She grades very harshly and is disorganized in grading/assignments. She doesn't even input anything into the grade book so you have no idea what grade you have. Her quizzes are sparse and oddly specific. The lectures don't prepare you for the quizzes. Huge project and final for last class.

If you're taking an Art class just to satisfy your GE requirements, I suggest you avoid this class for every reason you could think of. Let me just say, the TA was the unsung hero for this class.

132E . Khoury N N 9 Months Ago

She tends to teach very passionately which is amazing yet the questions are formulated off of her own knowledge and seem almost like trick questions 90% of the time, if you're one to psyche yourself out on questions in class, any of her classes are not for you. Barely any assignments so one or two bad grades can really run you your quarter
