I take them because I have to. Right now I'm in both contemporary art history (which is like 'Hey there, Abstract Expressionism, how's it going? de Kooning and Gorky quit painting the exact same thing as each other yet?') and prehistoric to gothic (which is more like 'How many of these guys were named Sesostris? Is that really how you spell Mentuhotep?'). The only art history course I'm taking as a complete happy-to-sign-up elective is a course next spring on the occult as it's been traditionally portrayed in visual art. I think my prof (my painting/drawing teacher) calls it 'Devils, Demons, and Witches' or something like that. That class? Historically campus groups like Christian Fellowship have camped out outside the door of the lecture hall praying for the lost souls of the students inside. It's a bit more lively than most art history courses anybody's ever heard of.
