In my life...have I ever had an instructor that blows my mind!! Chicano Studies wasn't a course I thought that would open my mind and make me feel in tune with my cultural heritage. Rovero's passion for teaching is something surreal, and I highly recommend her when you take a Chicano Studies course. She is what teaching is all about! No joke

Professor Rovero-Herrera is awesome!!! She is a consummate professional that does her job well. Professor Rovero-Herrera has a solid grasp of the subject and teaches it in a passionate, systematic, and effective style. She does not take nonsense from anyone. Though she is very nice as she empowers her students to live up to their potential.

I had to type up essay questions, and in the end, the stress and work I put in were only worth 20 points in her eyes. You put in the most work possible and get spit in return for it.

All of her classes, and i have taken 4 of them, are book heavy, lecture heavy and very inspiring. If you hate to read, then this class is not for you. If you hate to learn, or think it's going to be easy, this is not the class for you. She is tough but loves her students, if you try to cheat or lie, she will NOT take it lightly! She is great!

Honestly a breeze! Any bad reviews are clearly written by students that didn't work hard. Meet each minimum writing requirement(6+ sentences a paragraph), & you'll do great. If she sees that you put genuine effort in, you'll get an A. Super nice, responds to emails really fast, & leaves really nice comments on assignments. Loved the class!

Horrific class to say the least. The provided text material is incomprehensible and confusing. She doesnt assign too many assignments a week but when she does theyre awful. Lastly, the worst thing about this class has to be the assigned reading/writing. She expects two paragraphs PER question. This is beyond stressful and frustrating.
