Good prof when she was here. The class was freaking huge, though - it's tough on a freshman to be in a class with five hundred other freshmen!

She was my favorite art history teacher when she taught this. I just wish the class hadn't been so big.

I enjoyed this class a lot. I thought it would be kind of dry, she organized it around some interesting topics. You do have to like architecture!

Very Good Teacher... lots of reading required; good discussions; tests were not too dificult.

Very focused on architecture. Unconventional midterm; allowed three random facts on ids in place of(in case you cant memorize)dates, place and artist. Showed the teachers willingness to understand students. Discussion was boring; it focused on one reading, making other effort fruitless until th exam

First of all this class is categorized under history of art AND architecture. Secondly, her lectures were great. She presented the information clearly and told you everything you needed. Great class.

Compared to some others, she's totally fine. She will at the very least put up the names and dates of all the pieces you need to know, which is SO RARE. Boring, but as far as art history classes go, not bad.

Very cut-and-dry when it came to lectures. Tried too hard to be funny. Too much emphasis on architecture. Exams were difficult, but that's how it is with most Art Hist courses. Unless you want to take a nap in a dark room for an hour or two, avoid this prof, and Art History classes in general.

she talks a lot about architecture. i liked her shoes

these evaluations are so weird- she was not that bad! I thought her lectures were interesting, and she was so nice when i went for extra help to office hours

I thought it was pretty interesting, but she could stand to slow down a little.

AHHhhh!! she thinks she's so smart and tries to pretend like she's so versed in the worlds cultures... sometimes feigns an accent... toooo much memorization... dreaded the class and she killed all interest i had for the subject

I don't know why everyone is giving this teacher such bad reviews. I liked her a lot. She was very nice and she knows her material very well. The class was interesting and pretty easy to handle. Memorize dates at least 3 days before the tests. Only take this class if you like BOTH art and history.

Boring lectures. Don't need to go to class, just need to make sure to go to discussion and read the book. Memorization is also a pain in the ass for the midterms. But if you do all the reading and memorization it is an easy A.

pretty much just repeats what the book says, tests are hard and she doesn't prepare you well enough, boring lectures, probably the worst class i've ever had..save yourself the trouble and stay away

Pretty much the most boring lecture I have ever experienced. Seemed to know a lot about art history-though one guy corrected her a lot in class-but the lecture material didnt really matter as long as you know monuments and dates. TOO MUCH MEMORIZING!

I have had plenty of teachers, and Sarah Thompson is one of the worst I have ever had. If she is teaching this course when you are registering, pick something else or you will regret it. Terrible teacher, terrible class.

it's a relatively easy class its just the INSTRUCTOR is very boring, she think's she's hot but shes NOT!!!! someone needs to replace this girl

lecture material irrelevant to tests. just go to section and whatever is covered there will be the topics for the essay questions.

Dumb, boring, and hard......dont take this class....TA's all suck too

HORRIBLE, very boring, and material in lecture irrelevant to midterm or final seeing as how you basically just need to memorize dates.

This teacher is by far one of the worst i have ever had! She talks way too fast, her voice makes you want to rip your hair out, & she acts like she is God's gift to the world. She actually said during a midterm that she would spontaneously combust if a cell phone went off. I HOPE SHE DOES!!!
