Comment:

Absolutely love Father Rossi as a person and as a lecturer.I have never laughed so hard in class before. He's so kind and always willing to help. His exams are terribly hard as well as his quizzes so if you're looking for an easy A this class isn't it

Fr. Rossi was an awesome professor. His lectures are pretty entertaining and its not too hard to pay attention. The only downfall was his tests and quizzes, he gives study guides but they don't really correlate, plus they are pretty specific.

Everything was fine until I took an exam for the class. I thought they were all hard. But Fr. Rossi was willing to help and he cared about everyone so that was nice.

Comment:

Rossi is the nicest most caring man i've ever met. He knows this is a mandatory class and jokes around a lot. Lets you out 5-10 minutes early every class. Tests are so hard. All written response fill in the blank and essay. Quizzes are hard but study guide tells you exactly what to study. Super nice guy and super passionate but tests were so hard

Comment:

He is probably the most entertaining prof I've had. Was not looking forward to taking this ethics/theology course but he made it worth it. He's very personable and digresses often in the most hilarious ways. One day he got so off-topic that we ended up watching some Irish singer on YouTube for about 20 minutes.

Comment:

Freshman theology Messina This guy is awesome, hands down. He makes quite a few references to society of today for theology lectures and plays music videos in the beginning of class to get the class mood going. He is an average grader but he gives rewrites until u get higher than an B+. The quizes are easy cause of review sheets. No Tests &5 Papers

Comment:

Guys I want you to write this down, Fr. Rossi is your best bet for an upper level ethics class. At first all the work seems overwhelming but he gives review sheets for all quizzes and exams. We had a research ppr which was tedious but hes not a super tough grader. Take notes and study using review sheets and you will do fine. Hes such a character!

Sweet man who cares a lot about not only his students but all the kids at Loyola. Made church history as interesting as it could be and knows so much about his subject. Daily class was little work, but exams could be challenging.

Just go to class, take notes, and do well. His notes are more important than any reading you'll do all semester. Make sure you ask him challenging questions, and he will definitely like you. He's very enthusiastic about theology and makes class enjoyable.

Interesting having movies in class, however, he's very scatterbrained and really jumps around a lot. If you're not there on a day, prepare to feel a bit lost. Nice guy though.

very enthusiastic and friendly, but one of the most difficult graders. Especially if you arent a theology major and arent precise about everything. I woundnt take him unless you are an expert on the catholic church.
