I've taken two classes with Professor Morehouse and I can guarantee that she's one of the best at Alfred. She's easy to talk to and really cares about her students. She always pushes us to expand our thinking and find new ideas which always makes for an interesting class. Honestly, 100/10!

- Requires 12 books, so be prepared to cough up the money (Mine was $30 in total, but could range) - You are expected to have every book(printed or the real thing) - You are expected to have the readings on Canvas printed and with you - Be sure not to read the books off your phones - Course catalog does not describe the actual class

I took a fiction workshop for this professor, and she often called my writing, frivolous, or not having any purpose or value. We worked side by side on papers, and she would still make the, frivolous comment. It honestly made me give up on my dreams of becoming a fiction writer, and I dropped my english major.

Comment:

Morehouse is nice, but a problem I had in class was her expecting me to voice my opinion on writings, then when I had the courage to, it felt like I was being shut down. I've only made B's in the class so far, but she's respectful if you need more time. I don't like her taste in lit, so I have to force myself to read the materials, which sucks.

She kept my portfolio for over a year just to copy it and honestly the to be determined schedule is the worst. Shes a wonderful lady but I would not take a class from her again because her ideas of a good topic were not the same as mine when it was supposed to be creative writing.

I liked Morehouse, but she wasn't my favorite. Expected freshman to write like senior English majors, makes uncomfortable eye contact, and always goes over in class time. On the bright side, she brings her corgi, Jam, to class almost every day and its kind of easy to get her side tracked. She can be kinda strict, but not terrible.

Meh. Pretentious. Grading completely subjective, unnecessarily tough grader which is a pity, because it takes the joy of writing away. Get ready to read plenty of farm-intensive stories.

I've had Susan many times in the course of my college career. I admit, she's not the easiest grader, but I have learned so much from her feedback. That said, I can have tons of marks on my papers and still end up with an A-. She's also very understanding of more quiet students; she understands not wanting to speak up all the time.

Comment:

I was fairly disappointed with the class. The class calendar was "to be determined" at one point, it seemed like the whole class was getting Cs on every paper, and although she may seem like a whole-hearted person on the outside, she's a silent killer when it comes to your final grade. Stay away if you're lookin for an A.

Couldn't decide if I liked her or not. The class was alright and she wasn't a terrible teacher. She knew what she was talking about. She did pick favorites though. Really wants everyone to participate.

Class discussions were always fabulous, and the readings were fun and thought/discussion-provoking. Her children's lit seminar was easily one of my favorite classes at AU.

I love Susan. We didn't always see eye to eye, but arguing with her is as agreeable of an activity as any. Not to say that she's without a certain witty, sarcastic edge, but she's so warm and delightful, you just want to give her a hug. Don't feel bad if she teases you a lot...just a sign of her affection.

It would've helped were I actually good at writing, but she does her best to get you motivated about the subject matter. Very enthusiastic about her work, which is good. Leads good class discussions - a lot of reading.
