Teaching Fellowships
GSAS guarantees teaching fellowships in the third and fourth years of graduate study equal to the current living stipend. Students must teach two sections, or fifths (fraction of the University rate for a full-time non-tenure-track teaching position), per term to satisfy this guarantee. Each fifth generally corresponds to teaching one section of a lecture course.

Tutorial Application and Selection Process
The Sophomore Tutorial (HAA 97r)
The Sophomore Tutorial (HAA 97r), usually taken by undergraduates in their sophomore year, focuses on a specific area of art history. Up to two of these tutorials are offered each semester. Graduate students interested in teaching this tutorial are encouraged to submit proposals for subjects in their own areas of expertise. The Head Tutor may ask that a proposal be altered (e.g. if it is too broad or too narrow in scope).
...
To ensure a broad range of tutorial offerings, the Department prefers to offer at least one non-Western and/or architecture tutorial.
The Methods Tutorial (HAA 98br)
The Methods Tutorial (HAA 98br) is an introduction to the methods and techniques of art history for new concentrators. The choice of instructors is based on priority as well as teaching qualifications.
Changes in status or availability (i.e. internships, fellowships, etc.) must be submitted to the department office in writing. Graduate students will not ordinarily teach a tutorial for two consecutive semesters. Students will be notified of their selection by letter generally at then end of the spring term. For both tutorials, sections and employment are dependent upon projected and actual enrollments.
Sections and Room Scheduling
Classrooms for sections are reserved prior to the term through a google doc. Phantom sectioning cannot be done; rooms for sections can only be reserved for TFs that have been appointed at that time. The staff member designated for room scheduling will be in touch will all appointed teaching fellows and Head Teaching Fellows in particular.
The History of Art and Architecture Department holds regularly scheduled rooms through the regular term only; during reading period and final exams, rooms must be scheduled on a case-by-case basis.
