The best prof I have ever had hands down. He cares about his students so much and makes sure midterms are more than fair. Teaching style is a bit different with no slides but still the best lectures I've ever been to!

The kindest most wonderful man and professor. So caring and kind. If he sees midterms aren't done well, he will re-adjust marks so it is more fair and his students do well. TAKE ANY COURSE HE TEACHES! Wonderful man.

Amazing professor. Learned a lot and was very inspired by his lectures. He knows the material and can relate it back to us as students which is something not many profs can do. Would take more classes with him.

Comment:

Amazing lectures, has a lot experience in the field of psychology, great at cracking a joke. Lectures usually will not cover all the material, you will need to read and make your own notes to do well in the class. He doesn't cover all the chapters for the final, so you will have to study that on your own time. Tests can be a little tough. Worth it.

Comment:

Dr. Morgenson was hands down the best professor I have had so far in university. His lectures are incredibly engaging, interesting, and extremely well put (possibly the most articulate man I have ever had the pleasure of listening too). He really cares for all of his students and does as much as he can to help them succeed.

I had Don last year for my intro psychology courses. He is, and will forever be my favourite professor. If you are struggling with anything, visit his office hours- he will do what he can to make sure you do well in the course. His lectures were the only 830 AM lectures I looked forward to. Such a great man.

Comment:

Took Intro to Psych 20 years ago. First day, he told us all we had 100% and it was up to us to keep it - a lesson I have used with my kids. Also, used his idea of contracting for a grade - x amt of work 80%, y amt of work 90%, etc. Could be difficult, but lots of makeup chances. He's all about learning - which I did.

Comment:

Morgy is the best prof I had all year and I am so happy to have had him for both PS101 and PS102. His lectures are priceless and so worth going to, as long as you follow up on the material in the textbook. Exams can be difficult if you don't study/pay attention in class, but if you come and learn or even just listen, its worth every minute.

His style is old school, he loves his students and teaches because he truly loves spreading his knowledge. He wants us to apply our knowledge, not just test our ability to memorize facts... Great guy!
