Ellery Foutch
AMST
The work in this course all basically oriented around a giant spreadsheet database that we made for the Sheldon museum’s collections. I found the work and the content engaging, but I certainly can’t describe it as life-changing in any way. I enjoyed the course and found Ellery to be a lovely professor, albeit sometimes a bit timid for lack of a better term. She’s not the kind of be very strict or hardnosed, which made the entire project feel more laid-back, but sometimes I’d have wished there were a firmer hand in control of everything. At times it didn’t feel like anyone was “in charge.” We still got everything done the same, it just felt unclear at times what direction we were going in.

Extremely sweet and accommodating. I love Prof Foutch! You do ~2 projects with multiple parts the entire year. You have some lectures and in class discussions. Overall the class is fun and VERY low stress. Foutch is super flexible. Be sure to engage in the material and you will be fine. I 1000% recommend this class and her as a professor.
Love this course- the content was relevant and interesting. The conversations were engaging. The reading responses can be a but of work at times, but they are graded easily and really help to facilitate meaningful discussions.
