Interesting; manages to make worthless school req worthwhile. Arbitrary grader on speeches, but she's overall great. Very funny, personable. Tests straight from notes, not difficult. Doesn't think animals can communicate (clearly insane). Specializes in romantic communication...I wouldn't mind communicating romantically with her.

She is a decent professor. Makes class interesting on occasion. Anecdotes can be very revealing and unprofessional. Grades speeches incredibly hard and offers absolutely no leeway in grading. Had speech anxiety and she killed me on my speeches for it. Got a 89.7 in the class (which is a B) and she did not round up. So I did not get a 4.0 due to GCO

Jenny is the coolest teacher! She's respectful, kind, and used family examples every day to teach the content (SO helpful). The book isn't really needed, but the online quizzes were basically the tests (EASY).

Not a good class, you could learn the same stuff about relationships from reading a teen magazine. She gave us a lot of her own research and blog posts to read, and most of our material was non-scholarly. Massive video documentary assignment that is really annoying and difficult. Tests are super easy but she is really picky about presentations.

Jennie is so nice and really loves what she teaches. You don't need to go to class because she has a podcast and book you can follow along with instead but class is so enjoyable that you'll want to go. The class is really interesting and she gives real life examples and she's very funny. I wish I could take this class again because she's the best!

I can't imagine taking this class with another professor. She is so funny and gives you all the tools and materials you need to write the final paper. It's a group paper and you work on it throughout the whole semester and she walks you through it. You don't NEED to go to class - but you def should because she gives class time for working on paper

Be aware of ALL material that she provides and take notes - especially of guest speakers. Anything she puts into the lecture (podcast) and weekly discussion prompts can [and will] be used on quizzes and tests. Listen to everything and read her quiz questions carefully. Her lectures are informative but also playful and caring. I enjoyed this class!

Dr. Rosier is by far my favorite professor I've had thus far. I have taken two classes with her. Content is both entertaining and informative - she has the best stories to connect you to the content. Expect to take an introspective dive, that you will only be better for in the long run. She's tough but fair, so if you do the work, you'll do well.

Dr. Rosier loves what she teaches and it makes a huge difference! The class is really interesting and she gives real life examples that tie into your everyday journey. I really enjoyed the class and learned more than I was expecting to. Podcast, digital booklet, Facebook discussions had everything you needed to get a decent grade.

I took professor Rosier's online communications course. I had to sign up for a Facebook group for discussions which I wasn't thrilled about but the discussions themselves were useful & helped my understanding of the topic. Professor Rosier's lectures were insightful. Her tests covered both the lectures and materials posted in the Facebook group.
