CollegeProfessor Morris knows Journalism. She doesn't take BS and will push you to do your best. Having her as a teacher made me grow as a writer and I would only recommend taking her classes if you genuinely want to be challenged and pushed. It's a fair amount of work and she can be tough so be prepared.
I've had two classes with professor Morris and I don't mind having her as a professor at all. Her bluntness can seem really rude at first, but talking with her after class/during office hours about work helps. She knows journalism and what she's teaching really well, so her class is hard, but you'll learn a lot if you pay attention & put in work
She's rude, is not a good communicator. She misses things and blames them on her students. Overall she is just super rude.
