Wow, what an easy class. Instead of him teaching each chapter or topic, students are assigned to give oral reports on each chapter, a political issue, and a political figure. All of class is discussion, not lecture. Very relaxed.
This class can be a great learning experience if you and at least some of the other students participate. He grades too easy to make the class really excellent. I learned a lot about things that interested me. Very disappointed in other students.
Professor Morris is the most laid back professor. Easy A, elective!!!

i took every class he teaches but one, i love him. his classes give you a new level of comprehension for the political sciences.
I LOVE MR MORRIS!!! HE'S THE BEST!
Great teacher, very laid back.
A teacher that makes learning easy.
Interesting teacher! Especially for my major in International Relations, which can help me to prepare not only for the curriculum when I attend a university, but also prepares me for the future and become successful in life. He's very funny too!
He is so laid back and it's the easiest A you'll ever get! If you need to satisfy your social sciences prerequisites, take him for POS 2041 or INR 2002.
Great taecher.
Love his classes have taken two different subjects from him and learned a lot in both...
I took him for 2 classes, didn't show up half the term, and still got A's in both classes. All he requires is that you turn in your papers by the last day. He's a nice guy and an easy class. Take him if you want to boost your GPA.
great teacher, lets learning be fun rather than painful,
This class is basically designed for slackers who somehow desire to boost their GPA. Professor is late everyday, allowed to leave class if he is over 20 minutes late. Basically EASY A.
He is the best teacher of the campus.
I luv Prof. Morris, he's the best prof.!

This class was easy in fact too easy im sorry i took him because the class was a waste of my time especially when the class is what im planning to major in. Most people who take him generally need an A to boost their gpa.
Cool guy!
Really easy class. If you are taking a full load VERY highly recommended. Great class to help your GPA. No reason why anyone should get below an A in his class. A+++
good prof to get social sci section of AA completed. learning through verbal comm of current and past events. im takeing him next term as an elective he's so good. hardcore GPA booster. easy A.
An easy A if you show up everyday and complete a couple of reports. Picture him on a sleigh with some reindeers.lol
Great class, take it no matter what major you are. easy grade if you do what he says, which is reasonable and helps you learn. also he's pretty funny and lets the class dicuss the issues.
Yeah, hes late everyday. And yeah, he doesn't realy require you to do anything. And yeah, you don't learn anything. But, easy A, he hates Bush, and hes really funny... What isn't there to love about him?
awsome class!
Verry interesting class
Great class, great professor. Very interesting discussions. He's late alot, but be patient and wait, show up every day for an easy A.
No Comments
cool, friendly guy. EASY A, but you may not learn much. RAGING LIBERAL DEMOCRAT. If this bothers you take a different prof because he will talk about politics and the evils of G.W. every day (my class has nothing to do with politics) Not very organized and usually late
what was this class? Didnt learn about any teaching diverse populations. Very boring, easy class. Not for learning
He is agood and easy teacher. He's assignments are easy, just come to class, listen and do the assigned assignments and you are good to go!
BEST TEACHER EVER. We didn't do much, but i caught up on some extra sleep. funt listening to people argue the whole class. Would take every class that he taught! He is a funny man, and this class is a very easy A!!!
THIS IS AN EASY A!!!!! I barely ever showed up for class. He canceled class a lot. You don't have to buy the book. He only gives 4 assignments which are papers you have to write. Mine were only 1 page long each and I got an A.
EASY A! I was never there. Did my 3 research topics and literally copied and pasted it from the internet.he's atleast 15mins late everday for class.he hates bush. but easy A and easy to skip class!
I was disappointed. There was no teacher in this class. Yes, you can get an A, but you won't learn anything.
I loved the class! It gave me lotz of time to catch up on homework because he was at least 20min late to each class. Hey I'm not complaining! Just do the 3 research papers and discuss them a little~ EASY A!!
This profeesor has taught this particular class in the same room since 1979 and has grown tired of teaching extremly easy A but complete waste of time if you actually wanted to learn.
ive taken him 4 times. comparitive, american, state and local, and international classes. horribly easy. its fun to hear the things he comes up with. not much to be learned from the books. i did homework from other classes inbetween discussions. so why not get a easy credit every once in a while...even if its 12 credits...in two semesters...slacker
how can he hate bush he shows up 20 minutes late the first day he rambles on and oves clinton for how he cheated on his wife wow great teacher but hey looks like i am getting a A
He is an awesome teacher, unless you are a huge bush fan. He is very intellegent and will let debates happen in class. If you do you reports then the class is an easy A.
No Comments
Fun class.
I loved this teacher!!Sows up 15min late all the time and got to catch up on other homework. Write some papers discuss a little...Easy A I plan on taking him again
gosh this teacher is so unbelievably easy..show up late or not at all still pass with an A. get out early all the time, always cancells class. only downside is he is a hard core democrat. would take him again
He does not hate Bush! He was just saying today that he hopes Bush comes back from Kyoto.. otherwise we'll be stuck w/Chaney. Hate is a strong word & I didn't see any of it in the class. I like Prof. Morris & the way he runs his class. It would be even better with more students truly interested in the subject & less students only interested in a
If you actually want to learn something, steer clear. He is always 20 minutes late to class and makes his "How you doin'" rounds before actually getting to discussions. If you are looking for an easy A to boost your GPA, this is your man. Otherwise, look for a class with more substance.
His class is very easy and he is a fun teacher
Best class I've ever taken! If you are looking for an easy A or if you like Bush steer clear. Oh yeah don't show up on time. He's always 20 minutes late.
This guy doesnt know the first thing about government. He thinks this country is a democracy! Its more like a class discussion on what-ever. Probably easy, brainwashing nonetheless. Hates Bush and isnt afraid to say so. This class is more like random psyco-babble rather than a subject-based discussion. Not for anyone with more than 3 brain-cells.

MORRIS IS A GREAT TEACHER IF SOMEONE DOES NOT LIKE MORRIS'S CLASS THEY GOT A SERIOUS PROBLEM. EASY A
haha! everything that is said about him is so true. He is an easy teacher, then again the subject is easy. He will show up to class eventually:-) Nice guy.
I took Morris for everything I could. Great guy... mostly a discussion class, so show up and talk. He is NOT a republican, but respects your opinions if you stay on topic and keep it intelligent. Take him for anything you can.
There are three reports. If you do them you're golden. He always starts the class with an appropriate topic, but often the discussion veers off subject. Take his class you won't regret it.
i just effin love mr morris..he starts off every class by talking to every1 individually by walking around the classroom.. he is very compassionate and is a fun teacher... he ways choose mr morris for the histoys you have to take b/c he kicks massive ass!!
I LOVED MR. MORRIS. ATTENDANCE IS NOT MANDATORY AND THIS IS MOSTLY A DISCUSSION CLASS. YOU HAVE 3 PAPERS TO WRITE AND AS LONG AS YOU PRESENT THEM YOU WILL PASS. I WOULD RECOOMEND HIM TO ANYBODY. HE MAKES THE CLASS INTERESTING AND GREETS EVERYBODY INDIVIDUALLY AT THE BEGINNING OF CLASS.
YOU DON'T NEED THE TEXTBOOK so don't buy it! You'll love him if you're lazy. shows up 15-30 min. late. He likes to talk about Monica Lewinsky (which is mildly innappropriate, but funny). He hates George W Bush, but you won't be discriminated against if you're a republican. You have some projects, but he doesn't really care what you turn in.
WOW so easy! take his class for an easy A. He's really into his classes and is REALLY funny when he talks about politics! HIGHLY recommend him! p.s. HOT old guy!
AMAZING!!!!!! easy A! pretty much no work AND he doesnt require that you come to class
I enjoyed this teacher. It's mainly a discussion class, so if you don't like to participate in group discussions this may not be the class for you. Mr. Morris is more than fair with students just make sure you get all of your papers done before the last day of class. I will be taking another one of his classes this Fall.
very good. learned enough haha
Internation Relations the easiest class I have taken. Just sit there and give 4 oral reports and your done.
I enjoy Mr. Morris' sense of humor and easy going spirit! Wonderful professor and can't wait to take another class with him!
Straight up get this guy. only 4 assignments the whole year and there all oral and 1 you turn in. funny guy. dont need textbook. and i would bring labtop to class.(you'll know why when you take it) EASIEST CLASS i have taken so far at fccj.
All I can say is do the work and DO NOT buy the book. EASY A! :)
I took Morris for International Relations and American Government at the same time. Big mistake. I had to give 8 reports (4 for each class). My advice to you, don't take two of his classes in the same symester, don't buy the books (share with someone, you only need it for one report), and if you don't do the reports, you have to write papers on it.
OMG! There is seriously one like 3 assignments and they are all oral. I hate talking in front ofpeople so I didn't present them orally, I just typed the 3 papers and turnd them in on the last day of the semester and still got an A! He is so nice too. He's like 30 mins. late everyday and he lets you out early a lot too. If you need an easy A take t
easy A
Easy A. Don't buy the book..you don't use it except for one assignment. save ten bucks just borrow from someone.
Very easy class. Just 4 oral reports to do and you've got an easy A.
OK. If you need to take this class, take it with Prof. Morris. Your grade comes from 4 oral reports (a's if you do them)....thats it. Show up, do your reports and make an A. It really is as simple as that.
2nd time i've taken prof morris. amazing and easy class. 4 oral reports. if you don't do them a paper is required instead at the end of the term. it's a structure less class, but easiest a in the world. do the reports, get an a!
From what I hear, all his classes consist of the same thing: 4 reports. Just show up everyday and turn in the reports and pass. He's very funny and makes the class interesting. I'm taking the class again next term..would recommend to anyone..just don't waste your money on any textbooks for his classes.
There is one word to describe prof. morris:arrogent. I wasnt in his class very long because i coudnt stand that he thought he was so funny. Do not take his classes.
excellent professor. he loves students and teaching.
If you are actually interested in the class, don't take him. You won't learn almost anything. He is too laid back, and doesn't really care about the class anymore. If you just need an easy class to pass, this is your choice.
HE IS AWESOME!!!! He respects everyone and is extremely helpful. Easy A.
This professor is FAR from professional! Morris comes in late & takes 20 minutes to walk around the room to make small talk w/each student. He USES this class as a PLATFORM to push his political views on others. How he has been teaching for 30+ years,Idk! DO NOT waste your money on this class! YOU WILL LEARN NOTHING!NO tests,papers, or actual work!
First day I laid eyes on him, I was taken away. This professor is so charming AND funny. His class consisted of 4 oral reports (1 was a group project). Don't have to purchase the book, borrow it from a neighbor....Class was easy, and he is so good looking, you'll want to come to class!
He is late 15-30m daily, and he spends the next 30m greeting students.Students come in and leave anytime they want to and do whatever they want to.They never need to show up or worry about anything.Not sure about grading.He has knowledge, but he is not interested in teaching a well organized course any more.A waste of time!
Very friendly and helpful to his students. Had a great time in his class! Will take him again next semester.
Okay, first of all, I am cracking up big time at the person who said they were taken away by how handsome he is! This guy is like 60, and looks like Santa Clause! haha! Aside from that, he was a great professor and he really is an easy A! Take him for a GPA boost. Who cares if he's late and likes to greet the students before class! worthy the A!
I don't know how this man is still teaching. I took him back in Fall 2004 and it was a major waste of time. It's basically a 50 minute block where you sit in class and listen to people talk. No learning involved at all. No book, no tests, etc. All that was required was 3 or 4 reports on current events. Don't recommend.
professor morris was kind of a joke. dont expect to learn anything in his class, all we did was talk about what was happening in the news and how much he hated republicans. the only work i had to do was write 3 essays and present a group report.. so it was an easy A at least! he did pass roll around daily, dont think attendance really mattered tho
Explains the content clearly. Is very knoledgable about international relations and affairs.
Very easy, but extremely boring
super easy class! very nice guy! if your not majoring in history or something similar take him! if you are majoring in history then find a different professor because you will not learn much! very easy, no test, one paper, and 2 oral reports! he is very nice and greets students individually before class. attendance not mandatory. take him for gpa
easy A just do 4 things in the class including a group B.S project but overall its all oral reports and 2 papers that you can do in an hour. but he comes 30min late every time. so wait for him.
Professor Morris is great. No test at all. 4 oral assignments and 1 written. He does like to talk a lot but he knows his stuff. Definitely recommend.
The easiest A I have ever received! You do nothing but talk the whole class (some just sleep or do other classes homework) I took him before so I knew what to expect. A group project, 2 oral presentations and 1 written essay on a president. It may seem boring but the discussions made up for it. Trust me. If you need a stress free class here you go!
Professor Morris is a laid back teacher who is interested in the lives of his students. It is good to do the fairly easy oral reports early in the semester, and try not to be boring. Relax and enjoy yourself. Be respectful to other students when they are presenting and this class is great. Be rude, show up late and you'll not like this class!
Basically, you just listen to him talk about politics every class. You give 3 oral reports and a group report. It's an easy A, but it's really boring
Just take him... You will thank me later. EASIEST CLASS YOU WILL EVER TAKE. I promise you.
Easy A dont get the book just borrow somebody's for report one girl found book online for $10 all we did was talk only 4 grades basically
Easiet class I had all semester. You have four assignments and that's all, no due date as long as they're done before the semester ends. All we did was chill out and talk in the class everyday. There is no reason to fail this class.
He's a cool old guy that looks like santa. class consist of long class participating tangents. didn't really need the book except for his chapter presentation he assigns individually. Rest is a prez paper,group presentation (easy) and then a political issue. if you don't get a chance to present, you turn them in typed at the end of Sem.
Show up+do the assignments before the end of term+participate A. If you plan on learning anything about IR I don't recommend taking this class. He is very nice and wants class discussion on hot political topics. If anything, you will learn to articulate yourself. Basically uses class as a platform to spread his political ideas. Book is used once.
This guy is hilarious, genuine, & chill overall. He has 5 oral assignments for the whole semester and theyre easy. You just have to present them by the end of the year or turn them in and you'll get a good grade. You cant fail this class if you just do the work and participate by talking about the class topic which are usually fun to talk about.
Very well respected teacher!
