Easy Class, just go to class everyday and take the notes. Tests weren't to hard, came from the notes. Don't really have to read. She's nice, but doesn't like to be wrong and tested. Class was sometimes interesting and she lets you out of class early.

Professor Drew is strict and will call you out in class for anything especially if she sees you with your phone. an easy class you do not have to show up but you do have to memorize the vocabulary from each chapter and the paintings. one museum assignment and one group project. just do the work and pass. also final is not cumulative.

Would recommend taking her class. Although she can be moody at times, it's an easy pass with her. Her tests require you to be able to identify works of art/the artist. Made flashcards, only ever looked at them five minutes before the exam and did well every time. Couple papers but again, easy A. Attendance isn't mandatory and neither is the book

Though it is an easy class to take, me and many other students agree that we did not learn any new material in this class. It is literally an English class with very little discussion of art.

Professor Drew is pretty cool. She seems mean, but only to dumb people that test her patience. There are a few exams, 2 papers, and an in-class project. Exams are image-based, so you really don't need the book, you can just google them. The papers are also super easy. The project is also super easy, it's in class with a group.
