This prof gets props on her knowledge. She knows her stuff and, yes, she has the academic pedigree. Understand that if she likes you you're in, or your done. Kiss your academic career goodbye. After enduring her lectures I wonder if this woman actually thinks she lives in ancient Greece? She surely judges us according to those anachronistic ideals.

Horrible professor. Constantly teaches wrong information and relies on her head TA to correct her. My TA was a new classics student and didn't know what she was doing either.Teaches stories that are already commonly known from high school (Antigone, The Odyssey, Oedipus). Clearly feminist based. Is no help for office hours and is very rude.

Chill enough. Go to lecture. Everything on the midterm and final are on the slides, but she won't put them online. The readings are typically short and simple. She's overly feminist and preachy about it, but whatever. No essays or papers. 5 quizzes, lowest score dropped. Final has an essay section, but she gives the prompts in advance to prepare.

Easy class..pay att.. go to class everyday, take good notes.... ADVICE...i would read the intro to the books she gives because she gets the terms for the test from there, and you dont have to read the rest of the book haha....LOVE HER and hope to take more of her classes

I dont understand why people say shes a hard teacher because shes not...... Just go to class...cause she goes over everything and take good notes....if you listen and pay attention itll be an easy class overall and enjoyable. Advice...read the intro to the books she assigns, alot of course terms are on their that are helpful for tests

Professor Morales expects alot from all students. Expect to be worked hard in this class. Pay attention to the terms that she gives in class. Try hard and try to attend every lecture. She definitely notices students who put in effort and work hard in her class. Hard work pays off in the end.

Tragedy in translation. Morales' lectures can be confusing, with lots of tangents and it's difficult to figure out what terms, background material, myths, history are important for supporting analysis of the tragedies. Make sure to have the same translations as she uses-the bookstore slips up so check isbn # she assigns! Still a worthwhile class

Greek Tragedy. Heard a lot of horror stories about her, but I thought she was fantastic. Really loved her course and wouldn't mind take another except I'm GRADUATING!!! Knows her stuff and expects you to know it. Wasn't stifling and really encouraged creativity and critical thinking.
