Lectures were extremely unorganized, would essentially just be her reading off of a paper the entire time (it was almost as if it wasn't her own writing either??). TAs tried their best to help, but tests were so extremely specific that you'd have to basically transcribe what the professor was saying during lectures to do well.

Disorganized lectures and the quizzes are so specific that you'll fail unless you have a photographic memory. Would never recommend to another student.

By far the least engaging class and lecturer Ive had during my time here. The class is shown photos while she reads endless text off of a paper for an hour. She seems like a nice woman but the class is a total snooze.

She is just a great professor that makes me want to major in art history! I wish i wasn't trasnferring so i could take more of her classes

She is just a great professor that makes me want to major in art history!

her lectures were more useful and important than the readings. she's very nice and enthusiastic about the topic. i'd recommend her class!

this class was pretty easy. everything from the lectures to the test was pretty straightforward... as someone else mentioned, all you really need to know is the IDs and you're set to go!

went into this class expecting it to be boring, but prof. vilander proved me wrong! i was actually almost sad when the quarter ended, as there was so much more i wanted to learn. everything you will need to know is in the lectures, so i wouldn't bother reading the book!

I LOVED this class. It was really really interesting and the environment was really good. Professor is really nice and it was semi-easy and not a stress to learn

I didn't know what to expect at first, but the class turned out to b very interesting. I wouldve payed more attention if the class wasnt at 8AM! Go to discussions, my TA helped me a LOT to understand the material. Don't buy the book, i didn't even open it, just go to lectures, take notes, review them, listen to what ur TA has to say & u'll be fine.

She is such a great professor who really cares about her students and is willing to help you out in any way possible. Her tests are no problem if you attend lecture, you don't even have to read the book although it is interesting too... the paper is really easy too. It gets you interested in photography and it was one of my favorite classes!

Dr. V really knows her stuff and her tests are pretty straight forward. Paper's pretty easy and she's willing to answer any questions. However, the book is really encyclopedic which kinda sucks and it can get a bit boring especially if the class is at 8am.
