I did not want to take this class. Symbolic Logic scared the heck out of me. Why??? BUT, I've never had a professor who supported and cheered for me the way this one did. When I was crying, he laughed with me. He was far more confident in my abilities than I was and HE WAS RIGHT. He LOVES this subject and you will too.

Terry is amazing, helpful, consistent, clear and he has made this class fascinating, doable and fun. In the middle of the semester, I had a covid scare and contacted him. He checked in on me daily. His grading criteria is clear and never changes. The d-boards are easy and they were consistent throughout (contrary to the next comment).

I took HUM5 online during fall 2020. Prof. Terry changed his requirements for discussion board posts listed in his syllabus halfway through the semester, marking down grades. He does not offer lots of help. Directions on assignments need clarification. Super reading heavy, but if you do the reading and watch the films, you will pass the class.

Professor Terry was a great teacher, especially during this pandemic. Every week we were to read a chapter (20-30 pages), post three times on the discussion board, and have a quiz every other week. Straight forward class; do the readings, you pass. Really cool, chilled guy! I am taking his LGBT class, because he was such a good professor.

Loved this class. There's no textbook but, you'll have a few short books to read. There were 3 exams and a few "workbooks" based on books that we read - Very easy though.

This is by far one of the best professors I have ever had. He truly cares about what he teaches and gives such amazing feedback I took this class during a covid semester so it was online but I would definitely take other classes he teaches. It was mainly just discussion boards a few easy quizzes and a very flexible term paper.

EASIEST CLASS EVER! I stopped reading the textbook and maybe did an hour of work a week. Class consists of weekly responses( easy 100%), four quizzes (get online textbook to command F it), and one paper (got 100%). Literally the class is stupid easy I stopped doing work and ended with a 100% in the class by just writing fancy for weekly discussions

Professor Terry is clear and kind. He organizes the relevant material for us before we take the quizzes and, if you're doing the reading, the quizzes are super easy. What's fun is that while I'm organizing the material he told us to use for the quiz, I start to understand the film better. He met me for an office hour and we laughed the whole time.

I loved Prof. Terry, but I wouldn't take his Queer Film History class again. I took it thinking it would be an easy elective and it was a lot more work/harder grading than I thought. Terry is hilarious and gives good feedback on quizzes and discussion boards, but there's definitely no easy points. He gave an amazing E.C. opp. this semester though.

Took this Spring 2020 semester and loved it. The course itself is very informational and eye-opening. He's not heavy on assignments, just mostly watching films and having discussions. Some lectures. Not tough. Plus Professor Terry is kind, reasonable, and highly entertaining. A wonderful teacher and a super sweet person.

I took LGBT 01 summer 2020 and I loved him. Lots of reading, helps to have prior lgbt knowledge but its not a dealbreaker. Watch the films-they are helpful. 4 exams-2mc and 2 short answer. He is very nice, very easily to talk to, and expectations are clear. If you can't manage reading, don't bother but its a fantastic class wih a great teacher.

I took his LGBT studies class in the Spring before and after quarantine and I loved the in-class and online curriculum! I love Johnnie for being so open and helping to explain anything you have questions about. 100% would take his class again.

Johnnie Terry is an awesome professor. He keeps his students interested and has a great sense of humor. Discussion Board is a huge part of your grade so make sure to do the readings and participate. He is great with feedback too and loves to have discussions. Highly recommend him for any HUM class!

Would take this professor again. He wants to make sure everyone passes. I'm a procrastinator so I turn in my assignments the day of mostly and he emailed me every morning the due date of an assignment telling me he didn't have my assignment in yet. Thankful for the reminders, even though I still had like 8 hours until the assignment was due.

I took LGBT1 with Johnnie spring 2020. He was caring understanding- shifted the class tremendously during the pandemic when we had to go online. Responds to emails quickly and is always willing to change assignments due to majority class feedback. I felt like it was an easy A. Pay close attention to all the films and youll do very well.

Johnnie is both hilarious and inspiring as a teacher. Can be very nitpicky with what he wants with his assignments, but he's also very clear in his grading criteria. Very blunt and witty guy who wants everyone in his class to succeed. Just follow his instructions carefully, attend most of the classes, and read the texts and you'll succeed.

I took an online class with him & he is an amazing professor. I can feel his kindness through the computer screen. Make sure you do your discussions every week that are fairly easy. In my opinion he is not a tough grader and his assignments/tests are not too difficult.
