Really great and fun class. One of my favorite profs at UCSB! She's entertaining and nice and makes the material fun.

Class was ok until she changed all our grades by changing the grading scales AFTER the quarter ended w/out telling us before. 91-93 was a B+ for one TA and 89-90 was a B+ for the other. She kept the final the weekend we were told to move out because of Covid19 & lowered all our grades after so the grades we thought we had weren't what we received.

One of the best professors I've had at UCSB, she is so knowledgeable and inspiring! She does a good job at keeping the lectures engaging, and it is clear she cares about the course content as well as her students. One midterm, 2 papers, and the final is a take home written response. Readings are necessary but they were interesting and helped a lot.

Morse was probably 1 of my favorite profs that I've had in the dept so far. While I have no special connection with her specifically, I can tell she is dedicated to her work, her class is interesting, and she doesn't have ridiculous expectations. Attendance not mandatory but would recommend going as it clarifies the material and makes things easier

Professor Morse is my favorite at UCSB. I interviewed her for a writing assignment and it's super easy to see she is passionate not only about her research but also about teaching, which shows in her lectures. Lecture technically wasn't mandatory but I recommend going because its super interesting and helps a lot with papers/exams.

My favorite teacher at UCSB to date! and to think it was her 1st quarter teaching here! She goes out of her way to keep her students informed and engaged- she's clear about what she's expecting. She teaches you things that are actually relevant, I highly recommend taking a course with her!

Morse taught at UCSB for her first time this quarter and she was amazing! Her lectures are super clear and easy to follow, and she actively engages her students. She's super nice and easy to approach with questions, and is obviously passionate about the subject. I'd definitely recommend her class, its a great introductory class for poli sci kids!
