Professor Haggerty isn't that hard but his grading technique is off because there is no midterm or no other test given to evaluate how u are doing in the class and if you are a devoted student who attends class but can't quite understand or remember the boring art sketches that he gives u will fail his class he doesn't consider anything u will fail

One of the best professors at Brooklyn College, really helpful, only one test the whole semester, and the optional sketchbook gets you as much as 30 points on that grade! so to get an A all you need on the final is a 60 and a good sketch book. and his final is all from the class notes he gives out!!!

This class is VERY easy - you dont have to show up to class, all you have to do is draw up to 24 pictures in the sketchbook (i did it in 2 days)to get btwn 15-30 extra pts, and study the 11 pages of notes (that HE gives out) for the final. Study those notes well enough and with the 15-30 extra points you should get an A!

He is a very nice guy, but virtually no one has spoken during the entire class... he seems to be used to lecturing, and not used to engaging students in conversation during class.

Very nice easy-going personality.There is a sketch book you have to work on, about 25 drawings (however quality counts, not quantity). I did 15 drawings and got 46 pts out of 25 towards final grade, considering the fact that I haven't been drawing since I was 12.Know the syllabus from the back of your head, it will be on final. NO need to buy book!

Party's over everyone. I just took the final and it is a toughie. If all you did was study the syllabus and handouts on the first day of class and never attended, the best you will do is a C. The sketchbook is what will save your ***. Force yourself to do a least a dozen QUALITY sketches and you will get a least a B. Best Art Professor on Campus!

very sweet professor, explains clearly and appreciates your hard work. Make sure u have at least 10 drawings and attend every class just not to miss important info. I bought the book for this class but now I regret as I have not even opened it once. Everything you need pretty much u can find online, so don't waste your money and just Google.

Sketchbook is everything, i only did 6 drawings from the slides, and 4 of my own and i got 38 out of the 25 points needed (Means extra), just attending to class and reading the handouts, you should easily get a B and above. Takes time and effort but it is a super fair class. Sketchbook is your everything and he gives easy extra credit a MUST Take.

This guy is really good. I can't draw, or at least I thought I didn't know how to. I managed to get a 32/25 on the sketchbook and I'm a physics dude! Even though attendance isn't mandatory, attend the classes. It'll help for the killer final. It was such a great experience just listening. Loved the course even though I ain't an art guy.

If you like the subject, you'll definitely enjoy this class (otherwise, it's kind of a slow one)! Haggerty has a passion for the subject and will keep you interested. Do the sketchbook because it's a big lifesaver. No midterm, final can be kind of tough so make sure you attend class. Not a bad class at all!

OMG! This professor is so easy! I took hom over the winter, and I don't regret. I am in ACCT major,so I thought that I would hate it. But after his class I realized that I liked it so much. I couldn't even think that I can draw so great. I got 50 points for a sketchbook(max.was 25). Do sketchbook! It will safe u on the final because it tough.

Amazing! I had such a great experience taking professor Haggerty's art history course! it was extremely interesting and enjoyable! If you attend class every day, study all the topics included in the 15 pages of yellow notes that he gives out and work hard on your sketchbook, you will get an A! i highly recommend this class to everyone

Found it easy although the final has more to do with the artists than the art. Spend time on your sketchbook, ask for tips on it, USE COLOR, and you'll get 50 points for that. The class was impossibly boring, BUT, it really helps to go to class. I would recommend it because it's easy, but be ready to be bored.

He's very passionate about art! he shows hundreds of slideshows so it gets pretty boring but at least he tries his best to make it interesting by throwing in some jokes here and there as he shows them. It's a very boring class but easy class. Not much work except memorizing some artists and vocabulary words.

Very fair Proffesor. If you do the sketchbook fairly well and study a fair amount for the final you shouldn't get less than a B. offers extra credit and doesen't take attendance. great experience in the class considering im not an art major this was the perfect way to get through art history with least stress possible.

He's great ! Your sketch book is a HUGE part of your grade so put the effort into that. Study his syllabus and you'll get A. I personally didn't even open the syllabus and I still got an A. Write notes , even if you think the information won't be useful it will be on the final. And he's super nice and so passionate about art .

Haggerty is an ok professor, but his lectures are long and not very interesting. He tries to throw in a few jokes to make it better, but it doesn't really work. he doesn't take attendance so you don't have to show up. He gives a packet of notes so you have most of the info and the sketchbook is a big part of the grade.

Professor Haggerty is a great guy who is extremely passionate and knowledgable about Art. There are only three aspects to your final grade. A few attendance writing prompts graded for effort, the sketchbook, and the final exam. If you do extra drawings in the sketchbook in color you will receive considerable extra credit. Easy A.

his class was easy but extremely boring. There were no papers or exams just a final which was really hard and everyone most likely fails so you're better doing all your drawings because he grades them on a big amount he says 25 points but you could earn 50 percent from that so make sure you have all sketches and atleast one colored one

Professor haggerty is a good professor His lectures are long and boring. Very repetitive but sketchbook is a big part of your grade. Make sure to fill it up and make colored drawings. His final is very tough but if you attend the last few classes before final it can make a big difference to your final and help you pass.

The lectures were quite boring. Most of your grade is based off the sketchbook, so make sure it reflects a lot of time put into it.

if you don't mind having one exam at the end of the semester take him. the final was hard but manageable. he makes you keep a sketch book that he grades on effort. he's really old so hard to understand but he's really nice and wants his students to do well
