Reviews of professor Dianna Santillano

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
As an art history major I gained so much from her lectures, open mindedness and inspiration. I enjoyed her flow and critical analysis. As a creative, I appreciated her fluid approach.

I am currently taking professor Santillano and I absolutely love the class. It's intellectually engaging, interesting, and she's passionate. I don't think she's unorganized at all. I like that she's fluid, creative, and she really cares about her students. I got an A and became fascinated in modern art. I'd highly recommend her for any class.

Shes a nice professor. Didnt require students to show up for zoom lecture. Sometimes delayed in responding back to emails. Makes you write reflections. Chill class.

She didn't communicate with the class. She would disappear for a week and then come back with quizzes and tests. Mid way thru the semester she told us we needed to buy a book... ($65) Took so long to grade. But the class was an easy A.

She is one of the best instructors I had. She explains things very well and gives everyone a chance to ask a question. She will explain it in different ways if you are still having trouble. The student that did not like her were usually the ones that are very shy. She does create an engaging classroom environment. So expect to talk.

Though I passed this course, I regret taking this class with this professor. The course syllabus was scarcely followed, and we only completed a few of the assignments we were scheduled to complete. I felt I was in the dark regarding my grade and what assignments to expect most of the semester. (Grade calculations were disabled) (Covid-19 period)

Very long, sometimes dull lectures- but the class is an easy A! Only tests are midterm and final and you are allowed a full cheat sheet. Hardly any homework besides an occasional discussion or one paper but very light class. If you pay attention just a little and follow the grading criteria, you will get an A.

Dont take this course. I know you probably care about pre-columbian history, but she legitimately knows NOTHING about teaching history. you'll ask her a question, and she'll say a lot of nothing while making so many mistakes its hard to keep track. she's a chicano art professor, and she is radically unfit to teach this class.
