his lectures are entertaining, interesting, and very thorough. very reasonable and understanding. great professor overall!

An outstanding course, he offers you opportunities to investigate facets of government that interest you.

HE WAS VERY CLEAR, AND HIS INTERNET CLASS WAS THE CLEAREST TO NAVIGATE THROUGH. HE REALLY TAUGHT ME ALOT THROUGH HIS LECTURE.

His internet class was very user friendly. His course was interesting and I actually enjoyed taking this course--government is not my forte. No small feat! I enjoyed taking his course. I recommend highly.

I never thought government would this much fun!! He is extremely helpful so don't be afraid to ask questions for things you don't understand. Also, he reviews what will be on the test!

Very knowledgable. Lectures are clear and well organized. Builds a good rapport with his students, if you are willing to participate in class. Does not usually give tests. Instead you do hands on work - group presentations, book reviews, simulations...

I have taken him for both Govt classes and international relations. He is a brilliant professor that is very involved with his students. I would recommend him.

He knows his stuff and he knows how to teach it so that you are interested... if you listen and read you will pass!!! He should teach professors on how to teach!!!!!

Very good teacher. Interested in the students. Neat projects. He makes governmet fun to learn and take. Wants you to have your own political views and ideology's. Great class discussion. always open to questions.

VERY GOOD PROFESSOR. PROVIDED AN INTERESTING CLASS. GO TO CLASS, NOTES ON COMPUTER AND STUDY AND YOU'LL GET AN A. DOESN'T FORCE HIS OPINION DOWN YOUR THROAT LIKE A LOT OF PROFESSORS DO IN GOVERNMENT...ROOM HERE FOR YOUR OWN IDEOLOGY. LOOKING FORWARD TO 2302

I loved having him for a teacher. He was very helpful. All his notes are on his websites and makes his test fairly easy. I strongly suggest that you take Rogers for any government class. Extremely smart, funny, and fair. Which makes the class even more interesting.

Great teacher, he knows what he is talking about, and will not push his views on you. He will let you pick your side on politics and will not judge you on that. I would take him again.

Great teacher, provides a lot of extra credit. Gives study guide prior to test with the test questions on it. I would take him for other classes if possible. Easy to make an A.

I took him in Govt 1301 & 2302 he is awesome. He enjoys his job, and makes learning about govt. fun. I love govt however I think it is very corrupt. He allowed me to feel that way, and show me ways that it is not so bad. If you want to understand take him you will learn, and the test are kindaeasy.

Took this class online as a flex. Just 6 weekly essays, which don't get counted as late until after teh end of the semester. Offers extra credit for participating in his online discussions, and an optional extra credit essay at the beginning of the semester, do more than 6, that's ex. credit too.

this is one of the best classes i've ever taken. instead of boring lectures he's devised a structure where students participate in 2 simulations one of the house of representatives and one of the supreme court VERY FUN! he really enjoys his job-definitely recommend this teacher

i have taken him for both 2301 and 2302. One of the best professors i have ever taken. I will be taken his 2378 in the fall05. His lectures are very interesting, all notes are one his website. 2302 is all simulation with few lectures no test and a take home final. Now a political science major.

His IR course which was very interesting & his teaching method was new to me but I really enjoyed his approach. He cares about his students & has fun with the class. I recommend this class to everyone who is interested in international relations, group work & UN simulations!

I had this professor online and he was great. The reading wasn't that bad and he responed very quickly to emails. He lets you do essay exams at home so the test were not that bad. Just make sure to check you email for grades and discussion questions.

Took internet course, loads of reading,flexible, fair, quick responses,returns phone calls,highly recommend,doesn't push his ideas,easy to talk too,lots of writing but your interest will take over. Learned more than I ever thought.Nice professor, would take again.

hes a really good professor he's very organized and follows his syllabus very accuraltey he grades fairly doesnt take attendance there are make up exams, essays are required but gives you weeks to do them i highly recommend him

Great, organized, very educated professor. His tests are easy as long as you study the material. Do good on the essays for the tests. Very easy to understand, and I finished the class with a great deal of knowledge about the government. Take him and you will learn a lot, even if you are not intersted initially in government.

He was hard but extremly helpful. It took a lot of time to do the assignments, but I came out with an A in the end.

HE IS A VERY GOOD TEACHER...HE KNOWS WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT AND ITS AN EASY COURSE BECAUSE ITS A STIMULATION COURSE..YOU DON'T NEED A BOOK AND YOU WORK IN GROUPS...YOU JUST HAVE TO DO YOUR WORK AND YOU'LL GET A GOOD GRADE...ITS FUN AND INTERESTING.

good class, he knows what he is talking about gives extra credit, tests are easy because you know what is on the test. I HIGHY RECOMMNED HIM!!!

Great instructor, easy course. If anyone fails this one they must have slept through it!!!

very great professor- simulation course was very exciting-

Took internet summer I- lots of writing and 2 test on campus- sort answer. Mandatory 6 papers and you can do up to 4 more for extra credit, also a discussion board for extra credit. Memorize the study guides and you'll do fine on the test. I did 2 extra papers and the discussion board and only got 4 points to the cummulative so kinda a waste!

FANTASTIC! not only was he so helpful and wonderful when I had him, but he also helped me the next semester when he wasn't my proff to get out of the 2nd part of Pol Sci bc the other proff was awful. He emailed regularly, genuinely cared and wanted to help even if you don't currently have him as a proff! take his class! you will love him and class!

Dr. Rogers is AWESOME! At first I wasn't interested in Politics, but now, bc of him, Im way into it! Got a "C" in the class. We didn't use books bc he went over EVERYTHING VERY CLEARLY, but he recommends at least knowing about the next subject at hand. Written tests, but if you know ur stuff, they are easy. Just pay attention. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

He is a great professor for those who really enjoy politics and can discuss it in class. For those who don't know much, you just kinda sit and listen, taking it all in. He does make it pretty interesting and he makes things easy for us non-political people to understand. Tests short answer and essay, but not hard at all if you study. I have a B.

Took him for fall flex on the internet. Has easy page to navigate and detailed study guides. I never bought the book and still made an A. Learned quite about about the status of politics, and he also gives you the option of writing a paper instead of doing the short essay test at campus. Great for those with short memories! (like me)

class was not too hard, once i figured it out it was fairly easy, he didn't mind late work, but i was taking his internet course.

Mr Rogers is the best goverment teacher at SAC. He is fair and interesting. Once I figured out his tests, then he became easy.

I really liked Dr. Rogers' class. He was very funny, and made the class fun. He really knows his stuff, and is willing to help you anytime you need it. I HIGHLY recommend him. He was really awesome!!

He's a really great teacher who loves the subject. Very fair, flexible, and helpful. Makes the subject matter very interesting. Is just as interested in hearing your ideas as he is in telling you his. Superb class and instructor.

Very fair and flexible teacher...makes his lectures interesting. Just participate, do the readings, and make sure to keep up with the news

He is an amazing,genuine, and fair man. One of the best professors I have had the oppurtunity to study under. His methods of teaching are excellent. Does a sign in sheet once in a while to check attendance. Take him for any classes you may need that he teaches. DO NOT call him Mr. Rogers!

Dr. Rogers is a great teacher. Fair, unbiased, ready and willing to help if needed. I would take another class taught by him.

Excellent professor! My favorite class last semester.

(INTERNET)Lectures are well typed & interesting, if u use them & the review u can do well. On the test he splits review into 10 sects. and u pick the ?'s u want to answer. On the review, when u see ?'s that start out the same or are on the same subject u don't have to answer all of them since on the test u will only be required to answer one. I got and A+.

I took Prof. Rogers in an internet course. Very helpful and prompt responses to questions. Grades are given in a timely fashion. I highly recommend him for any course. He's very laid back and gives extra credit along with hints during tests.

Best Government teacher at the school. He treats the students with due respect. You must study on your own because lecture is minimal. You will be challenged to think with other students. You will gain more practical knowledge of politics in one of Dr. Rogers classes than in four years of any other prof at this college.

Doc is the coolest prof, hands down. The first part of his Government courses is lecture, but fun lecture. The second is simulations. First is a senate bill sim, then a supreme court sim. There's so much room for a student to express his or her opinion. Plus, if someone's phone goes off, it's donuts time.

Took him for a Maymester online. I HATE government but he actually made it really interesting. If you try in this class you should get a good grade because he offers soooo much extra credit. It's a lot of writing but very interesting topics, not your typical government class. I loved his class so much. Got an A.

Dr. Rogers is a fantastic teacher. This is by far my favorite class. His simulations are fun and you learn at the same time. You will not find a better teacher anywhere. Keep up the great work Dr. Rogers!!!

He is a great teacher, he made his class very fun, he pushed everyone to participate in class. His test are really easy he gives study packets before each test and will tell you which question will be on the test. You only have to read the book for the test. Easy teacher, easy test, he makes you write papers with each test but it is so EASY

Dr. Rogers is a GREAT teacher, super helpful, very understanding, and by far the class that I've had most fun in this semester. Tests are super easy, class is fun, and he is a nice person.

Dr. Rogers is AWESOME! Extremely knowledgeable about govt and the processes involved. He has a great sense of humor which made me WANT to go to his class. Just make sure you turn your cell off when you get to class because if it rings, you're bringin donuts for everybody next time. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Professor Rogers is really nice but is not the easiest teacher I have ever had. He definitely makes you work for your grade, but he is very fair. Gives lots of extra credit- I would take him again.

Best professor i've had at SAC.Iincredibly interesting and it consists of mostly class discussions which is fun when you're opinionated. He expects for his students to know at least some about the subjects and tie UN Simulation was educative. He is a very fair teacher and grades as such. I'm taking another of his classes next semester!!!

Super easy class. Took him online. Required a couple of essays and super easy. Tests were super easy too. Doesn't require book either. Very nice guy, even gives you his phone number to reach him if you have a pressing matter. Would definately take again. Very interesting guy!

Took online class over summer. Assignments are easy but a little time consuming. Does not require any specific text book. Most info comes from lectures. Tests are easy, just do the review. Great teacher! Easy A.

outstanding teacher. very fair with grading. generous with the extra credit. seemed to want all to do well.

Dr. Rogers is awesome! He uses a hands on approach for every class he does. You should not take his class thinking that you will slide by without any effort on your part. He is challenging, but I would say he is the greatest prof at SAC! If his cell rings in class, he buys donuts!

Dr. Rogers 2302 class was a simulation course. You simulate the senate where you write a bill and the supreme court where you discuss the constitutionality of a case. He is unbiased and makes the class fun for everyone. Show up to class and participate and make an A. My only gripe is he was incessantly late, which ate into our simulation time.

Dr Rogers is a very good teacher I had no knowledge of government but he explains it in a way that's fun & interesting. His online class is good if you need to be self paced. :) made an A.

International Relations class. Easy class. Dr. Rogers is very lenient and also funny. There is quite a bit of writing, though- we wrote around 3 or 4 papers that were 4-8 pages in length, each. His suspenders are hot.

Dr. Rogers is amazing. Goverment does not like me and I even made an A. If you take the time to do the readings and listen well during the review you will have an easy A. Actually do the reading or you will hold back the rest of the class when it comes to review times. You do not need the book!. Extra credit is readily available to you if you need!

Dr. Rogers deserves all the yellow smilies! He is awesome! I never liked Government, but he makes it super easy and interesting. I recommend him to those who suck at Government and for those who love it. He gives 3 tests out throughout the semester. Study his lectures online!

(Online course) Dr. Rogers is very passionate about Govt, & you will learn a lot. Each exam consists of 10 essay questions. Most of the material comes from his lecture notes of which some are hard to follow (he needs to proofread them. Always has reviews for the tests & offers many extra credit assignments. He requires 6 essays (3-5 pgs each).

I actually really liked this class. It is not your typical read the textbook and take a test type class. We actually did simulations of both the senate and the supreme court and actually researched and wrote our own bills and legal briefs and came to class dressed as senators and went through the entire process of the senate. it was a lot of fun!

AWESOME Professor, Dr Rogers lectures are good and easy to understand, no homework, notes are on blackbord so just study the notes. hes exams are 3 MC exams optional or you can write 2paper per exam and you also need to do 3 internet assignments that are 3-5pages.lots of extra cridet opportunities so take advantage.

OMG!! the easiest professor out there. NO JOKE!! six essays that count as a test or you can take 3 tests and 3 required assignments, thats it!! Rogers gives a couple of subjects to write about and all you have to do is write!! plus, he offers extra credit. Take him if you want an easy A.

I wonder who in our 2302 class wrote Dr. Rogers is horrible and unfair? Personally, I think the guy is awesome and the class was super fun! I loved the simulations and thought all the people in the course were kudo-ristic! The real joy is alot of the work can be done from home. Thus you only need to show up for the sims; I did and got A! Woohoo! ;)

Awesome professor! I don't know how I passed this course. All notes are online. He offers extra credit. Multiple choice tests were easy.

Absolutely an awesome professor! I love government and his simulations were a lot of fun.

Prof. Rogers is funny & nice. For test purpose had a choice of 2 Essays OR muli. choice (Gives out a study guide for multi. choice exam? helpful). Required 3 internet assign.-papers (easy). Gives out extra credit assign. It?s hard to fail this class. Read his lecture notes, didn?t use the book. I recommend this prof.

I thought I was not going to get an A but I did. Never once miss a day in his class. Funny but you still learn. Stimulations with Senate good. especially Education Stimulation had so much fun good teamwork..I would tell everyone take him. He's # 1 Govt Prof.

Easiest class i ever took. Take this prof over anyone else.

great professor. very passionate about government and a good speaker. gives options on test and the chanc to do lots of extra credit if tests are not your thing. blows a little hot and cold. expects people to participate, even if he does not agree with your answer. would recommend him.

Took Prof. Rogers for GOVT 2301 and was nervous about taking his class.....very good teacher, but requires you to write. Took this as an internet class, and our only assignments was to write a total of four papers, and take two exams....Gives extra credit too! He grades VERY easy so don't stress out too much about writing!!

He knows his subject and you will learn a lot. I took International Relations with him, and he sure made the class interesting. Participation in the simulations are the key. You must write one Essay. Then you have to present in front of class. And finally you have to participate in the simulation. The class is easy.

Great teacher very flexible. I took his internet course. You can choose to write papers as your midterm and final or take a multiple chose test in which he does review. There is extra credit and he provides his cell phone number to his students should you have any questions. Very fair man regardless of your political stance.

Dr Rogers is an outstanding teacher, he teaches by having you participate in simulations. I actually learned how our govt works rather than reading chapters and chapters from a book. Major plus, no required book! Research is 100% online, several extra credit opportunities, and very flexible.

Dr. Rogers' class is amazing, I loved it. I actually learned how our gov't works. He does simulations instead of boring lectures. It is important to participate in order to get a good grade but it's FUN. You have to write one essay. He loves what he does, no textbook, no tests, EASYY and FUN. What else could you ask for? He's great!!

I took his class online. He is very organized and gives you all of the information and lectures at beginning of course. He has a review for each of the three tests which are extremely helpful. He has interesting lectures that I learn a lot from.

Fabulous online class! Loved that we could do essays (2) in place of each test! No memorizing and lots of great opportunities to research and learn! Very helpful and responsive. Knows subject very well, class well laid out!

Dr Rogers is AWESOME! Loved this class. Took his online class and wasn't looking forward to it, but it was great. He gives you the option to take either his MC exam or 2 essay exam. This helped out so much. He expects you to be informed on current events. I will definitely take him again!

Dr. Rogers makes this a fun class to take. It's not boring. He likes to play around and tell jokes and he gives VERY HELPFUL test reviews. He shows alot of film clips in class as well of movies that coincide with the lectures. I definitely recommend any course taught by Dr. Rogers.

Such an awesome teacher! It's a simulation course so the students act as supreme court justices, senators etc. you have 2 different simulations that will take the entire semester, fun & super easy. NO HOMEWORK! We only wrote 2 papers that only had to be a page long. If you fail this class, please punch yourself in the face

Makes government interesting. He's passionate about government and his lectures are great and make government more down to earth as it relates to us. Lots of opportunities to learn.good professor!

I took him online in a 5 week summer session. I think he asked too much from his students and I found it quiet difficult to pass. I had a 4.0 until I took his class. We did have reviews in person, he seems like a great professor and I think would have done better face to face.

Took online, Cool professor, has reviews before every test 3 tests, 3 papers. A bunch of extra credit, although you probably don't need it.Has thorough lectures online that explains everything.

Very good professor. Took online class and was very well organized. He is always available to help and provide feedback. Learned a lot with the lectures.

Professor Rogers is hands down one of my all-time favorite professors. An erudite to say the least, he presents the information in a fun, stimulating manner and encourages his entire class to add their two cents about anything and everything regarding the course material. You leave his class knowing so much about the subject matter.

Very helpful! Made government a little more interesting. Learned a lot. Very understanding (has a son at UTSA) book not mandatory ! Take notes from lectures which he posts on Canvas! Recommend

He was great and was very flexible. If you had any questions you had to call him because he wanted to get the answer to you right there and then. I didn't get a gov book and passed the class with a B. That was without trying.

Pretty cool guy. Took online but would have reviews at school before the tests. Awesome. Take. You won't regret it.

He has alot of experience since he has been part of different government agencies hence the material in the class is very unique which cannot be gained from other professor you have to study for the MCQ exams and his class debates are interesting

TAKE THIS PROFESSOR! He's so easy to get in touch with (gives you his cell) & genuinley WANTS you to succeed. I took him online & although I got an A+.. I WISH I had taken him in a class setting. GO TO HIS REVIEWS (its maybe 2hrs), use his office hours to chat w/ him & he will SPELL the answers out while making the materiel so easy to understand.

Only reason i didnt give 5 on easiness was other students who werent working very hard struggle.Very interactive. took internat relations&fed gov.we did un simulations and debates in class over recent political events,very interesting.Doesnt take attendance gives u his phone # Very nice man just to talk to about politics if u find them interesting

Very easy to contact and very easy in general. No need to read book if not doing exams. Essays are easy if you use good writing skills.

Lectures are pretty long, attendance isn't too necessary. Got a super cheap book and haven't used it. Instead of taking 4 exams, you're allowed to do essays which aren't too hard but need to put some good effort in it. Plus 1 debate. Lectures are interesting even tho I don't pay attention to those matters. Help is there but sometimes no fast reply.

Honestly Prof Rogers was amazing. I loved the class. Lectures were fun and engaging. He likes to have the students involved in discussions and doesn't project his personal beliefs onto the students. Would definitely take another class with this professor and highly recommend his classes to anyone needing the credits or interested in anything govt.

It's a simulation class so expect group work. Probably very helpful if you have a decent grasp on politics. I do so it was alright for me

Professor Rogers' class is so interesting. I loved coming to his class everyday and was definitely inspired by him. He gives you tons of choices, and as a student, that's a wonderful dynamic. Ex. He lets you choose to write essays and/or take multiple choice exams to get higher scores. That's pretty much unheard of. Take him, you won't regret it.

You have the opportunity to pick an essay or multiple choice for exams. He is an honest guy that cares about what he does. Cares about students and will work with you. Overall simple class, just take notes. Very willing to help you on essays. Enjoyed his class because he makes it simple to understand concepts. Get ready to do a simulation/debate.

Great professor, He truly knows his stuff. He has slides and stuff, but he doesn't teach from them, it's straight from his head. Class is pretty easy, you just have a pay attention and participate and get an easy A.

Professor Rogers is AMAZING! Please take him, you won't regret it!

Dr. Rogers is a great professor. I wish he taught a humanities class just so I could take him again. He has three exams and a final. Each exam an be either MC or essay (4-6pgs), but one MUST be a essay to complete the class. He is very knowledgeable about government and international matters. Many extra credit opportunities.

Love him, I didn't get a good grade. Although, I feel I would've if I wasnt always so rushed and distracted with my new born. His lectures are current and interesting. Make sure to study hard for his exams! Other than that participate and get your stuff turned in on time and you should be good. loved this class.

Professor Rogers makes this class fun, I was hesitant to take this Gov't class in the beginning but was worth it. Class participation is a must but you can't help not jump into debate in class. Fun learning environment

Dr. Rogers is a great professor. There are 2 exams(both are your choice of MC or essay and if you score low then you can take the other), there are 8 topic essays, and my class did a supreme court simulation. He is very knowledgeable and we discussed a lot of hot button issues which made coming to class very interesting! I also never used the book

Professor was pretty good. I'm completely bad at this subject but he put in the effort to give me a good grade. I took his course online, there was a total of four phases one had to be a four page essay and the others were multiple choice exams. there is a lot of reading and writing for his class so be prepared.

Major projects - we did a mock supreme court case which you HAVE to prepare for. Took this in Sum I 5 week class. He is interesting and passionate about politics. Tests are easy to study for and gives option of mult choice or essay. two papers that were about 2 pages each. Not hard but participation is a must to get a good grade.

He's one of the better professors I've had at SAC. He's more than fair. He gives you the choice to take a multiple choice test for each section or write an essay. For people complaining about essays, this is college-learn. His lectures are interesting and you can tell he cares. Participation matters a lot in this class, so showing up is not enough.

Course is divided into 4 phases w/info for discussions, exams and powerpoint assignments. The deadlines he put were not "hard deadlines", just guides to keep us on track so we could basically go at our own pace. Do NOT get too far behind/wait til the last minute or else you will be left rushing to catch up at the end of the course. Very nice class

Dr. Rogers is a very caring professor that challenges his students to think critically. I really enjoyed this class and got a lot out of it. This class is also divided into four phases, which I really liked. The final phase - Supreme Court simulation - was my personal fave.

This class was really great! It was divided into four sections with soft deadlines so that you could work at your own pace. Participation really matters in this class since he grades on it. Throughout the entire semester, he only assigned us four tests and four PowerPoint presentations. Overall, I had a great experience!

Was not a fan of this class at first. Seemed like a lot of work , but if you pace, it's not overwhelming. Though this was online class, he held zooms for reviews before exams. The notes were a lot sometimes but very thorough. Just gotta put the effort and you will pass.

Really great professor!! He does soft deadlines but just be smart and dont wait until the last minute. Attendance is optional but I LOVED his lectures

He was one of my favorite professors I ever had. This course is lecture heavy however it isn't boring. We had the chance to give our opinions on countless political arguments. He gives out extra credit and truly care for his students.

Professor Rogers is an amazing man and professor. He cares about his students and his class is not extremely hard. He is understanding and very helpful. Definitely keep in touch with him throughout your course and go to him for all the help you need. He loves it. He is very wise and knows focuses on the important, relevant parts of government.
