Comment:
Test are purposefully harder than they have to be. I can barely hear her during lectures which are already dry and bland. I only learned by looking up all of the material on my own.

Comment:
The worst teacher//advisor at CofC. She is not helpful and very discouraging!! The actual class would be really interesting, but she is awful teacher. Unfortunately, she is the only prof that teaches micro..my best suggestion would be take it over the summer somewhere else.

Comment:
There is A LOT of material to study on each test. The majority of it is interesting, some of it isn't. Her tests are tedious just because of "K type" questions. If you want to make a good grade reserve at least 4 days to study all the material. Will also test you on information not covered in lecture. Meaning, you have to look it up yourself.

Comment:
Dr. Morrison is a fair prof and she covers a lot of material. If you want to do well in the class then write down EVERYTHING she says in lecture and use the COURSEPACK. I didn't use the textbook. Also, do the STUDY GUIDES. She takes attendance, so go to class.

Comment:
She is a nice lady and her coursepack teaching strategy is a good idea. However, she does a terrible job covering material (you won't get through all of it, and the really interesting stuff is at the end) and her tests are much more difficult than necessary.

Comment:
I was hesitant about taking this class b/c of the ratings on here. I loved the class and found it fairly easy. Don't bother buying the text book for lecture. The course pack is all I studied and I came out with a B+. Attendance is mandatory and lectures are dry, but you have all of the information to do well.

Dr. Morrison is an excellent professor. She is very detailed and precise. Her coursepack is a study guide from heaven! She is very helpful and is available to answer your questions. Yes, you do have to study and learn a lot of material. It is a 300 level course! The coursepack is essential, but the book isn't all that helpful. She is!

Comment:
Never thought it was possibe to make such an interesting topic so utterly boring, that is until i took this class. Going to class is a complete waste of time as she reads her slides word for word, which are already in the course pack required for her class. The intesity of the tests did not reflect her elementary teaching style.

Tests are very involved...you need to know as much as possible about ALL material covered in class. Trying to get in touch with her is a chore, she takes a good while to get back to you over email. Getting a good grade in lab helps a lot since it's 25% of the lecture grade.

Comment:
I have never met a teacher that was as unhelpful as her. She seldom responds to e-mails or phone calls and isn't helpful. I heard a few other say different and some agree. I guess she just chooses who she wants to help. I would be better off taking the class from a monkey!

I really believe that she tries to make her test questions tricky and confusing. I wouldn't recommed the class if it isn't required. IT will stress you out like none other. If you do have to take it-study religiously.

Extremely helpful lady. Micro is alot of information, but she shows pics/diagrams/cartoons, to help you associate things. She uses a coursepack that is SO helpful! It makes taking notes 100 times better and it helps to already have diagrams to look at with out having to draw them yourself!

this class was tough, but learned A LOT. it's all really interesting. tests are killer, but you have all the mateial in her course pack. this is not an "easy A" class, but if you're a bio major you shouldn't be complaining about a lot of work! it IS possible to get an A without selling her your soul

The class is definitely labor intensive. She is a very nice women, who likes to write tests the are somewhat challenging. However, you can ace her class with studying her class packet. She teaches you a lot, and with a little studying you will do fine in her class.

Comment:
honestly i changed my major solely based on her class. i realized that if my whole life was going to be spent in classes like this then it wasn't worth it to me. some people loved her and thought she was a great teacher and i guess she is, but you have to be REALLY serious about science to take her.

If you complain about this class, you are just being lazy. Go to class, pay attention, study! You learn a lot and tests are reflective of notes. She is very helpful!!

LEARN AND KNOW your notes--man, she kills you with all the details. The class is boring, the tests are not easy and you do spend lots of time studying for her class. Take it somewhere else if you can but if you're stuck with her, try to study more.
