Comment:

Honestly Roselle is an angel. My class was nontraditional with her in that it was an honors seminar, so our only graded work was weekly journals and a final research paper, but she made it really easy for us to understand what she wanted from us. I think I did the reading about once in that class, but I've heard comp pol is different.

Comment:

Great professor, sarcastic and witty but class is difficult for a 100 class and she knows it. I am not the greatest with politics so if I came into class and didn't read I didn't get much out of it but the class was fun, midterms and tests are difficult and she doesn't tell you what to study. Lit review is awful, but she does it for a reason!

Comment:

Roselle is the greatest professor I've ever had. You will work hard, read a lot, and question everything when its 4am and you're still in Belk writing a lit review, but it is more than worth it. She will work with you and if you put in the effort you'll get a good grade. She is one of the most respected profs at Elon and globally in her field.

Comment:

One of the best professors I've had so far. Really cares about her job and is really passionate about the subject. Definitely need to read the textbook -- she gives reading quizzes on pretty much every chapter. Really lenient with grading -- she doesn't want you to FAIL she wants you to LEARN.

I learned more in her class, than any class i have ever taken. She has experienced so many things in her life that her stories alone will totally captivate you. If you want to become a better writer and actually get a job after college, take her class. She's tough and doesn't give the best feedback, but you learn how to be a better student.

If you don't want to invest a lot of time and work into a class, don't bother. If you want to experience learning from one of the most well respected professors at Elon and in International Studies academia, take her.

Comment:

Dr. Roselle is a great professor. She is well-respected, and rightfully so. I agree with previous reviews that if you don't want to work, then this is not the class for you. But if you are willing to put in the work, you can succeed in her class and learn A LOT. Class discussions were very interesting and I always looked forward to going. Take her

She is a phenomenal professor. She is possibly one of the most intelligent people that I have ever met. She is very difficult and will make you work hard, but she is willing to work with and is very accessible. I loved her class!

Absolutely brilliant teacher. Very difficult, but worth it if you are interested in political science. Anyone willing to put in the work will find Dr. Roselle to be an exceptional teacher. Minimal textbook use, but lots of reading on a nightly basis (articles, journals, etc...).

By far the most challenging and time consuming class I've had at Elon, but also the most rewarding, the paper I wrote for her class has been really helpful with graduate school applications

The most professional and intellectually engaging professor ever. If you stop trying to study and really start stadying you will not have to cry that her class is haaaaaaard! Just do what you are asked and don't leave anything on the table. Give your best shot - it's a good test before a grad school! =)

Suck it up and learn. Roselle is a fantastic teacher. She demands a lot of you and you get a lot in return. If you think spoon-feeding lasts forever, it does not. And she refuses to do it. And she offers varying views. And challegnes you. CHALLENGE! Remember challenge?? Probably not. She is awesome to those who want to LEARN.

I am shocked that anyone has rated this teacher anything higher than a 1. She is the worst teacher I have ever had. Unclear, mean, just awful to even be in a room with. Expects grad level work out of freshmen... will make your life miserable. Do not take her.

Was one of my worst classes at Elon. She wasn't helpful and didn't care about the progress of her students. Class was boring; I don't remember one thing about it. Hated her as a person and her opinionated feminist viewpoints.

Definitely not a good teacher. Hated everything about the class. Definitely a feminist. I felt sorry for the 4 guys in our class.
