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!
