Although he does take time to explain problems, his math 105 class is more hassle than it needs to be. The tests are largely story problem exams that sometimes have very little to do with the material covered from the chapter (sometimes even HE has trouble explaining them). Office hours are not at all flexible. He's funny so that's one good thing.

I didn't hate the guy. At times, he could be funny and he always made sure we understood the material to his knowledge. He expected you to ask questions when you didn't understand, and not many did. The math itself is easy, but he made the tests (4 in total) trickier to see how well you really understood. He was very political in class, too.

Spends more time making sarcastic political comments than on course material. Was late to every class meeting. Not helpful. Not accessible out of class. Although he is an adorable old man and his jokes are sometimes funny. By far not worth failing a class.

Worst. Teacher. I've. Ever. Had. Without a doubt one of the most condescending, narcissistic, sexist, homophobic jerks I've ever had the displeasure of meeting. He somehow always finds a way to unnecessarily include his god awful thoughts and beliefs in his lessons, which have NOTHING to do with math. I hope I never have to see him again.

If you want to talk about religion and politics, take his class. Tests are worth 100% of your grade and there are only four of them, including the final. Good Luck!

I've always done very well in math classes and never got below an A until I took a class with John Morgan. The only three grades are consisted of three exams and the final. The average of the first exam was between 30-50 percent. After that it's impossible to bring your grade up. I would not recommend him because he makes everything so confusing.

I genuinely liked this professor. He is a great person and actually tries his best to help you. Although you don't have to do the homework, I strongly suggest it because it makes the tests easier.

Very stressful class. Requires a LOT of studying. He only grades the tests, but I recommend you do the homework. Ask a lot of questions. I studied over 12 hours for the second exam, and only got an 86 on it. This class requires a lot of time put into it. Make sure you go to class.

Your final grade is three tests and your final exam. The tests he gives are very short so if you miss a few you fail. He goes over everything in class and then the test is nothing like what you learned. Constantly bashes public school kids, always late to class. Nearly impossible to get a hold of outside of class, he never ever uses any technology.

One of the worst professors, you go at "the classes pace" because of this we were only graded on 3 tests including the final. I failed the 1st test like everyone else when he specifically says everyone fails the first test. I got 100% on the next two and still ended up with a C+, AVOID THIS PROFESSOR WITH ALL COST, had to retake due to major

Will go on rants about how the government is not ran properly. Blames the class for the failing average but will not try to do anything to help. If you take this class you will have to teach yourself everything and often that will not enough. You WILL regret if you take his class, I promise you.

Would go on rants about how the students are taking up parking spots, blame us if the class doesn't do well, asked for help and extra credit and he would not help at all, was late on givng grades out on time. Don't take the class with him at all.
