The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
A few art reviews call it an easy A with major extra credit, but many other reviews describe unclear grading, confusing tests, and even one fail.
All evidence comes from in-person reviews; there are no online reviews.
Is the course easy?
The material itself often sounds manageable, but unclear lectures, vague assignments, and off-topic teaching make the course harder than it should be.
All course difficulty evidence comes from in-person reviews.
Is attendance flexible?
Attendance rules are not clearly reported, though several reviews imply frequent in-class confusion and unclear class structure.
Only in-person reviews exist, and they do not clearly prove a consistent attendance policy.
Is this professor recommended?
Most students strongly discourage taking her because they found the class disorganized, unclear, and frustrating.
All recommendation evidence is from in-person reviews.
