Very nice. 201 is not that interesting, but she is very passionate and makes it as interesting as it can be. EXTREMELY helpful, goes out of her way to help students. Very clear explanations. She even does dances and things during animal behavior. Hilarious. Cares about her students' success.

Comment:

If you have even the slightest interest in birds, I would recommend this class! She is extremely entertaining, and a very good teacher. If you make flash cards for the birds, you'll be golden on quizzes. The tests are fairly easy as long as you pay attention in class. She's so nice, and it's obvious she likes to teach this class.

She's nice, but she turned into Usain Bolt during her lectures (very fast). Homeworks and tests were pretty easy, but the material is a little dry at times. Oh yea, the final exam is like 22 short answer quesions; hello carpal tunnel syndrome.

Comment:

Nice lady, but did not enjoy her class. Made material more difficult than it had to be, and had EXTREMELY long tests - especially the final. Morris is very helpful and wants her students to do well, but the material taught in 201 is just so boring it's hard to stay focused.

Comment:

She's great, such a joy, but pay attention. Her slides are good, and her random tangents relate back to the material. But her tests can be really time-consuming (not just studying, but when taking).

Comment:

Dr. Morris is pretty sweet. I didn't ever think I would like birds at all, and she kind of makes them fun. She is very helpful, willing to answer questions and is quick to respond to e-mails. Class isn't too bad, just a lot of memorization.

Very animated and peppy - a woman who loves what she teaches. Listen to what she says, dont just laugh at her fascination with birds, and you'll do great.
