he is a good teacher. He some times goes of on a tangent but he eventually gets back on track. He also like to watch movies. If you show good effort you will pass

I loved Rothman! He gives you a group in the beginning(unless you make one yourself) and you stick w/them and do a couple group projects! He's really easygoing I can't believe what some of these ppl are saying.. just do the work it's literally not even hard hahaha

Comment:

He was awful! He thought that his class was the only one that mattered and gave a project that was hard to complete and very time consuming. DO NOT TAKE HIM! Worst professor I had Freshman year! I am not a Sophomore.

Comment:

Do NOT take this class if you don't have to. It's very easy, but the instructor is arrogant. He grades based on what he thinks your potential is, not what's on the paper. He asks questions in a confusing way and does not answer them later. Not very clear on assignments. No testsquizzes, but a lot of short papers. He assumes students know material.

Comment:

He knows what he is talking about, he just goes about teaching his lessons in an unusual way. He believes that his class is more about finding a different way to learn and so he have notes. It is more about application of the material.

not really bad, but not terribly good either, very confused most of the time. Professor Rothman knows and understands anthropology. He's a hard grader so be aware of that.

Comment:

This was probably one of the worst classes I have ever taken. It was pretty easy but he called out a lot of people and once announced in front of everyone that one girl did really poorly on a test and she got really embarrassed. i would not recommend this class

Very easy class, should be able to get at least a B. Only one test which is very easy. You learn a lot and it's easy, not much else you can ask for.

Comment:

A likable guy who can ramble a bit. Trying to take notes is difficult, but he emails all the notes to you so you really don't need to bother. The two exams were very easy and he allows rewrites on all papers. If you tell him what he wants to hear in the papers you will get an A.

I love Dr. Rothman. I have had him muliple times. The most difficult class i have had with him was Archeology but it was the material that he had to cover. He is happy to help when you ask. The rewrites are great if you need them. He is one of my fav. professors.

Boring class, but so easy. Definite GPA booster. You dont even have to pay attention and you can get a good grade in his class. Offers a rewrite possibility on all papers to increase your grade. Emails you notes so you dont need to take any and gives study guide with what to study for the TWO tests.
