UCLA is home to some of the most entitled, ignorant young adults I have ever come across in my thirty years - - reading the reviews that they have written about Dr. Leap [previously Prover] has further solidified my opinion. I have worked in social welfare for the past ten years, and coming back to school has definitely been an eye opener. The Social Welfare department at UCLA is world renowned, and having met, studied under, and worked with Jorja for over a year, I understand exactly why this is the case. Jorja isn't about grades, she isn't about giving anyone a hard time, she isn't about pushing some liberal agenda - - she's been a social worker for over thirty years, and an educator for over twenty. Her insight and her down-to-earth approach to the field and the work that we do is entirely on point, and perhaps a bit too much for the students that take her undergraduate classes merely because they hear that they can obtain an easy A. Many of the students in this class are arrogant, and they don't care for the material. She gives extra credit opportunities via attending community events, and many students ask if they can leave early. She is intolerant of stupidity, and rightfully so. She expects people to show up, do the work, respect the amazing speakers she brings to talk to the class, respect other students, stay the hell off laptops and cell phones while class is in session, and learn something important about the community. Jorja has put her very life into her work, and anyone with a semblance of intelligence and maturity would realize the sheer magnitude of the life-changing educational experience that you receive under her tutelage. You can teach twenty-somethings a plethora of knowledge, but it is very obvious that you can't teach them to give a shit. UCLA is lucky to have Jorja on faculty, and I am truly blessed to have had my life touched by this woman. I love her, I respect her, and I am so incredibly grateful that I can be guided by a woman that has selflessly given to the community and has accomplished so much in her lifetime.
