Art 101 Wednesdays 12:30-3:20pm (2nd 8 weeks) Syllabus

(Updated 3/12/12)

Weekly Modules:

The principle of organization behind the weekly modules is that you begin study of the material for the next meeting during the week, and are tested on the material for the last meeting before the next. E.g.: In Week 2 (starting after class on Wednesday), you will be studying Aegean and Greek I, but will need to complete the quiz on Mesopotamian and Egyptian before we meet again.

Remember: Weeks begin on Wednesdays after our class meetings.
