I really enjoyed this class. Sometimes the lectures felt a little long, but Prof Garrison was super passionate and always made it super interesting. It was clear she really cared about her students, and was super accommodating and nice. The course is fairly reading intensive, and at times it can be a lot. The papers are probably the most difficult part of the course, and you definitely have to put a lot of effort into them to get a good grade, however, I would say that they are pretty fairly graded, she just has high expectations for students.

I came into this class initially to satisfy the EUR distribution and was somewhat intimidated by the syllabus and heavy history-based content, but I walked out with such a strong interest for art history and ultimately decided to major in art history-museum studies. Professor Garrison is funny and witty in class, gives out very chill "write me one paragraph about the reading on your chosen prompt from a total of 6" quizzes and is very accommodating if you need an extension. She does not grade papers in the sense of giving out easy As, but she is always willing to help at any point during your writing process. A substancial amount of reading does need to be completed before each class, but she makes sure to pick out very engaging academic papers that are not too hard or painful to read or follow.

As someone who took this course for the sole reason of trying something new, I soon found it to be my favorite course of the semester! Professor Garrison was incredibly engaging and taught the material in a super approachable way, which I appreciated as someone with no HARC experience. There are a couple of hefty readings due every class, which can become slightly overwhelming, but the material itself is usually pretty interesting, and overall, it could be a lot worse. I would love to take another class with Prof Garrison after this.
