“can't find much on uwflow but it looks interesting. should I take it?”

u/TheFieryandLight: “I took the other one CLAS 232 (Roman Art- correct me if I’m wrong) with Craig Hardiman. I liked that course a lot, lots of memorization though. It’s fairly interesting. I assume 231 is Greek Art, and it’s probably the same outline as Roman Art. I’ve heard good things about it. …”
