Professor Rowey is a diamond in the rough when it comes to teaching. Her love for marketing is evident in her daily and unrelenting enthusiasm and she only acknowledges her own success based on the success of her students. Long live Rowey!

Double-check every assignment and due date. She thinks she is grading fairly, but she's often unclear. The result is you might have a misunderstanding about the content or due date, and she will penalize you! Check your e-mail from her, and e-mail her with questions. Come to class 15 min early, stay in class after tests - she gives bonus pts!

ONLINE - She is a terrible professor. She put up the wrong syllabus, doesn't explain the grading, and is unclear ALL THE TIME. I lost all motivation for this class after dealing with her nonsense only 3 weeks in. Through the whole semester only 30% of your grade earned. The last 70% comes on the final day through a USELESS project and a final exam.

Nice lady but her class is extremely boring and lecture heavy. We had about 4-5 writing assignments that were graded by a computer system? Writing assignments cannot be graded through a computer system because everyone writes differently, you could tell that she implemented that system because she is too lazy to grade them herself.

Worst professor, I have ever had! Before she begins class, she focuses on irrelevant topics (not lecture related) for most of the class and repeats the same things before lectures. You get 15 minutes of lecture before the class ends. Very unclear instructions for projects. NO RUBRICS FOR PROJECTS. Her answers to questions are not directly answered.

This has been one of the most boring classes I have taken. I have not learned a single thing. She did not let us use our computers to take notes in class. She is very unclear with what she wants and always goes back on things. She will act like she cares but she really does not. Lazy grader, has a computer grade things for her. Do not take.

Her lectures were very boring and all over the place. She is a lazy professor that had a computer grade her writing assignments for her. These writing assignments were graded poorly. She was very indecisive when it came down for her to make a decision. She definitely is a nice person just not a good professor. Do not take her.

Very boring lectures, but Professor Rowey is exceptionally kind and caring to her students. The textbook and basically all of the assignments were online. One presentation, but very easy. Wouldn't recommend if you're trying to learn anything, but easy credits.

This class seems extremely challenging to me. Professor Rowey seems to give material that would typically take a month to learn and compress it into just 6 days...all ONLINE. Additionally, there are 2-3 exams every week, so performing well on them is crucial. I can easily see how some students might not succeed in this class.

She was a good professor, tended to repeat herself, is pretty strict, and is very clear on what she expected from her students. She wants you to prioritize the group project over other classes.. and encourages students to ask questions several times before she finally lets us go. the group project was fun and professional.

Most unorganized professor I've had. She's a nice person for sure, but her blackboard is insanely difficult to navigate and her assignments / due dates are all over the place. You will spend a majority of your time trying to figure out what is even due before you can begin said assignments. Instructions are always unclear and she's a tough grader.

I had Professor Rowey for BUSN 2060 and 2050.She was at first friendly but became unorganized and unprofessional quickly. None of her due dates matched and she'd assign things after they were due.She also would email me ~5x a day for weeks starting 4 am demanding I call her ASAP which made me extremely uncomfortable and anxious. I DO NOT recommend

She was extremely unprofessional. She assigned due dates at random times, linked assignments to incorrect chapters causing me to fail them, and refused to compensate for unjust low grades. She would tell me that we always had to talk in person even though my schedule was busy and was very little help.

Refuses to help students. Her tests and exams were marked incorrect when the answers were stated in the book. I sent her pictures to prove it and she still refused to do anything to my grade. Rude and conflicting.

Rowey's grading is brutal. She nitpicks everything, costing points no matter your effort. Her assignment INSTRUCTIONS are insanely long and stressful just to read, it'll take you 20-30 mins just to get through them. Her emails are the same, sends multiple times a day at strange hrs like 3 AM. Super overwhelming, only take if she's your last resort.
