Reviews of professor Morgan McKnight

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The course is a group project. I do not recommend taking this class online because everything is vague. My group struggled to meet and follow directions. We got a C on the final project, but my grade was an A  for the class. I would say that this course is frustrating but passable if you do your part.

I took this class as it was recommended by a counselor. Be prepared for unfair and crammed due dates of assignments. There will be multiple  similar assignments due on the same day or span of 2 days. Which gets very confusing due to the vagueness of assignments. Maybe this class would be better in person, but I do not recommend taking it online.

At first, I thought his class is an easy A, but if you put in the work for it. There are a couple of essay papers and smaller assignments. One advice: don't procrastinate on your essays, otherwise, he's a great professor.

I learned a lot in his class and it isn't a class you can't just do the minimum. Took an online version over the summer and we had to complete one speech every week. Overall, a good experience.

Extra credit is first come first serve, same people got it everytime :(. Gives guidelines of what he wants so follow his outlines for speeches. Moderate grader, not super hard. Quizzes are either online or in groups from the textbook, very easy. He can be moody at times, and hates when you talk in class, as I learned. Can eat in class :)

He's an okay professor but is a stickler for the little things. Of course, it's a writing class so there's a ton of writing. Be prepared to get marked down on your papers for the slightest of errors. I would recommend taking another professor for your 100W honestly

Don't miss an assignment it doesn't matter if you have a legitimate excuse he won't help you. If you miss one of the speeches, or you get a bad grade on one it is almost impossible to get it back up. There are few things in gradebook that actually hold weight and can improve your grade He doesn't do anything he doesn't have to to help his students

Took this class for credit but ended up really enjoying it. Cares about his students a lot and their ability to progress their speech giving skills. 3 major speeches, midterm, and final exam. Guidelines are set but up to you to choose what you present about. Would 10/10 recommend:)

Professor McKnight is a very articulate professor who does try to explain things to the best of his ability. His due dates are unreasonable, especially for online classes where we're all struggling to collaborate and find people to present to. If you're looking for a COMM class for credit, find another one, because this one is difficult ...
