She is an AMAZING professor. The best I have ever had. She is willing to help you if you don't understand. Her lectures are so interesting and you will not want to miss a day. She is so nice, too. Her tests tend to be challenging, but if you read and come to class you should not have any problems. You have to take her for at least one class.

I have taken her for 203 and 321 and have enjoyed both classes. You will have to take notes and attend class, so if that's a problem don't sign up for her. She does use the WHOLE class period, but that isn't always a bad thing because you get your money's worth. I would recommend her for any class!

S.Morrow (not J.Morrow) doesn't make developmental psyc interesting at all. She knows this from her own evals given out. Little bookwork, but a LOT of papers due, and PSYC research credits also needed for the class (on campus and off). Too much work for a 200 level course IMHO. Let her know early if you have problems with her papers topics.

This is the first class I ever got a C in! I always had A's, maybe B's. Her lectures are good, but her tests do not compare to them and the work she assigns is tedious. The assignment format is very anal and because of it I got a low grade on the assignment and she only lets you do 2/4 of them, not the highest graded 2. So the low grade stuck.

Ms. Morrow does care a lot about the subject she teaches and wants all her students to learn from her class. Beware, she is a though grader but she always gives guidelines on what is expected of her assignment. She is always available to answer questions and will help you if you are struggling. Would recommend her.

Although her classes are online her style makes you feel more than just another name on BlackBoard.
