She seems very passionate and kind. The content was also really interesting. There were a few papers to write and a presentation at the end but it's nothing too difficult. You discuss your grade at the end which is chill. Great professor |

One of my favorite classes this semester. As someone who is not into Art History at all, I became interested after this class. Basically, every MW you attend a lecture and you learn about various medical illustrations/anatomical drawings/art history and you tie it back into a social, political, and cultural context. At the very beginning, I could barely describe an illustration/piece of artwork even as fraction as in-depth as Dr. McBryde, however, by the end I definitely improved. Every Wednesday you would submit a course log in which you could copy or write your notes in, it is just a proof that you were attentive and that you were in class, its more of a marker of what you did each week. There are 3 process essays in which you compare 2 images and the final process essay you describe your experience in the class and your experience completing the final project. In the final project, you basically apply all the skills you learn throughout the semester by yourself. You choose an anatomical object/drawing and you write about it and present it. You have to complete an essay about it and present a presentation in front of the class. Both were genuinely super interesting and fun to do though. Additonally there are no grades in this class. In the Final Process Essay, you argue why you deserve the grade you want. At the very end of the semester, you set up a meeting with Dr. McBryde to discuss the grade you want and she will either approve it or not (she most likely will approve the A lol). Overall, an amazing professor, one of my favorites, and a fun, engaging class. |

Dr. McBryde is actually the goat. She really cares about the subject matter, and she doesn't really force engagement out of her students. I didn't do all of the readings because no one really does, but I still feel like I was able to walk away with knowledge, even though I didn't know I was signing up for an art history course. |

She's a great person, but content wise, the class is absolutely useless in helping you achieve any project you choose for it. If I didn't have to do the BS work for this class, I could have actually spent time working towards my project. Instead I had to find sources that were "helpful" and "useful", when I could have been doing things that were beneficial to my future. I genuinely spent more time figuring out how to word each assignment to fit my project than actually working on the damn thing. Again, no knock on her, she's very nice, but it seems like she also thinks the class is helpful which is not true in the slightest |

She was a very nice professor and gave useful feedback on our assignments. Some people say she’s passive aggressive but I disagree, it’s probably different for everyone. The class had a lot of long readings that you are expected to read before every class so that you guys can talk about it in class, however, I never read a single reading and was able to breeze by. Class time mostly consists of us sitting and listen to her talk the whole time and watch her slideshows. Sometimes the content was interesting. And sometimes we would get into small groups or partners to talk about a reading but it was rare. No actual grades for this class. Just do all your assignments and put in some effort and if she can tell you’re putting in work, you’ll get an A I recommend this class if you want an easy A |

This class is supposed to be easy and she makes it really easy. Participations are not hard and the only partially time consuming things are benchmarks and the final project/proposal. I recommend for the final to just pick an actual project that you can do, otherwise you will have to write a long proposal. |

Extremely nice and forgiving. I agree her feedback can be a bit abrasive, but she's an easy grader. |

Nice professor that cares about you're learning. The readings are really long and pointless so I never read any of them. The inclass disussions aren't even discussions; they are just listening to her talk about stuff. The final project is really easy but annoying because you have to go to a random museum on a friday. Overall, the class is really easy but sometimes a hassle because it feels like a waste of time |

She is extremely passive-aggressive in emails and feedback, but the class was fairly easy to pass. I would take someone else if given the chance, it was not fun to be in her class. Also, this class is so useless I'm not sure what I was supposed to have learned. |

The course is very easy and really should not take much time on a weekly basis to complete. McBryde seems to know this but is yet not ok with the fact that students are just trying to breeze by, and cares way too much about this filler class. She seems to think very highly of this class and is way too serious about this project that is not going to get us anywhere, and provides VERY passive aggressive feedback, and is annoying overall. I would not recommend taking her for this class as she is just going to make your life harder and more annoying. |

She's great and seems to want the best for us. However, I don't mince words when I say that this course is utterly useless. 7 weeks in and I still can't articulate what it's really about. We're developing a project...proposal? I suppose it's worth it if only to meet new people. |

The course is an absolute waste of time, but she made the class entertaining. She's chill and very understanding. |

You don't get to choose your HNUH100 professor, but it's a good thing if you get her: Pros: - Friendly & welcoming - Lenient, easy grader (not that many hard assignments to begin with) - Does a much job neutrally delivering a heavily politicized curriculum than other professors do |

The class is a waste of time and Dr. McBryde knows that we're all busy. She's a super chill and easy grader, so don't skip the class and you'll be fine. |

She is such a good teacher HNUH100 wasn't that bad of a class, mainly because of her. I'd recommend her for all the other classes she teaches aswell. |

If you ignore the fact that the class itself is a complete waste of time, she does attempt to make it more interesting by giving her thoughts here and there. Overall, very chill and easy grader, so it's pretty much a guaranteed A as long as you show up. |

Overall a very nice professor. HNUH100 is basically a waste of time, but Dr. McBryde is a pretty good teacher. Can't really complain I guess. |
