Awesome
Professor Jorgensen is great. He will do a lot of storytelling with a great sense of humor in class. He's a bit of a strict grader. If it's even a few minutes or an hour late, he can take off 10% to 50%. Also, when it comes to classwork, you need to be careful and participate. And if you don't, you won't pass his class. However, he's really a great teacher with a great choice of music.

upon request
