DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR.

I took this class as one of my two last classes for my major, and I have never taken a worse class than this one. Unless you know Chinese art well before taking this class, you might find yourself struggling.

Her feedback on assignments in never helpful and she grades you based off of how well everyone else in the class does. She does not follow a rubric because she believes that humanities classes should not be graded using a rubric. The presentations are all over the place, the names and places she mentions are said in Chinese (hopefully you understand Chinese, unlike me), and she speaks fast and quietly.

If you do end up taking her class, this is what you need to know (which she did not tell us until week 10): cite a couple readings in your essays, do not make any statement or argument unless it is backed up by a reading (god forbid you have your own opinion), have good grammar (even though hers is not the best), and luckily your peers don't have better essays than you (you might end up with a 65).

Take any other class if possible, but if you end up taking this one...good luck.
