Comment:
She's an excellent teacher and a fine artist. Don't take this class if you're the type of "artist" who needs their art created for them. She's a serious teacher who expects her students to motivate their own artistic expression and create their own original work. Thanks Ms. Morris.

Comment:
Ms. Morris has never worked as a photojournalist; she does wedding and portrait photography in Ithaca. She also doesn't understand digital cameras, so we're using film. I've learned more from reading the class text than I have from Morris who is a terrible teacher. Any photographer from the Ithaca Journal could have taught us both more and better.

Comment:
If you really want to learn about photojournalism, don't take this course from Ms. Kathy A. Morris. If you do, you'll hear a lot about the philosophy of yoga and its application to photojournalism. Morris is a terrible teacher, short tempered, and not a very good photographer. She's an adjunct faculty member but a curse to the TCCC art dept.

Ms. Morris was not at all helpful in terms of answering class questions and helping us learn darkroom technique.

This teacher was more inerested in explaining Yoga concepts than photographic composition. Avoid her if you can, as there are other, better photography instructors at TCCC.

This was a class that I worked myself sick in taking. I finally dropped it. Whenever I word ask a course question, I would get a yoga-perspective reply. AVOID.

I took this course because I wanted to learn photography, but the teacher was more interested in talking about yoga! Asking questions which got answered was next to impossible.
