Winter 2016 - This class was hilarious, exciting, and fascinating, all thanks to Professor Morris, who is my favorite professor at UCLA to this day. If you want to gain practical knowledge about a world that is not so openly talked about, take this class. If you want an easy A, take this class. I wasn't so interested in LGBT culture before, but this opened up a whole new world for me. Professor Morris is an incredible lecturer. Never a dull moment in this class. NEVER. I've forgotten my TA's name, but honestly I went to the discussion 2/10 times and never had it held against me; she didn't take attendance. There is virtually no homework or readings- just two 2 page essays, the midterm and the final. I generally hate going to class, but I was excited to go to lecture, and I thoroughly enjoyed writing the essays and taking the final and midterm. Take this class!

Winter 2022 - This class was definitely one of my favorites that I've taken at UCLA. Professor Morris is incredibly knowledgable about queer history and pop music, and I loved hearing all of his personal anecdotes and opinions on the music we listened to in class. He didn't mind explaining the basics of listening, understanding, and writing about music, which was really nice considering that a lot of professors expect students to know everything already on the first day. Professor Morris really cares about all of his students and wants them all to not only succeed in his classes, but to enjoy what they're learning about too. I'd take him again in a heartbeat for any class he's teaching. Highly recommend you take this class if you're considering it, you likely won't find anything else like it anywhere else.
