Easy class to get an A and less work. Be ready to work in a group. If you are looking for less stressful management class go for it. Else don't even think about it!

Comment:

This professor has no business teaching anything, he is only concerned with using the class as subjects for his little social experiments at their expense. Online course was extremely disorganized, and course syllabus looked like a 6 year old typed it up. Unless you like brown nosing I would not suggest Romar.

Comment:

Romar is a very my way or the highway type of guy. If you want to get an A do exactly what he says. Ask a lot of questions because even the slightest bit of uncertainty can mean the difference between a 10/20 and a 20/20. If possible do not have him as a teacher. Not fun.

Comment:

STAY AWAY! this teacher is horrible. He wants you to read the syllabus which is the most confusing syllabus ive had in my four years of college. He won't answer any questions that you may have which is what a teacher should do regardless if it is on the syllabus. If you do the work and it not what he is looking precisely for it will be an F. AWFUL!

Comment:

So here is the deal with Prof Romar. Read the syllabus, read directions and do as told. You will easily earn an A. Dont ask any questions which have been posted or can be answered by LOOKING in the syllabus. Im sure if I were teaching online I would get horrible reviews. Kids seem to be too lazy to actually full read directions. Id get upset also..

Comment:

He grades pretty easily in essays as long as you do what he asks you to and use the text. His lectures are really repetitive but you learn some neat stuff here and there. He can come off harsh or rude but he's a pretty nice guy if you ever get a chance to talk to him outside of class. Not the best professor, but not awful.

Comment:

He is very unclear with his assignments. His syllabus is very unorganized. You don't have to do the readings for each class (I don't think anyone did) He seemed like a nice guy, and was to me, but I heard a lot of issues with his from others. Try not having him for this class.

Comment:

Very easy class. Yes he is rude to students, but only when they ask the same questions over and over again. Actually, it annoys me to have these questions pop up every time I sign online, so I can see how it would annoy him too! Yes online submissions are graded a little bit hard. But if you put the text into your essay you will definitely get an A

Absolutely awful. The classwork is easy enough. All of the questions and answers are straight from the text. The class is completely pointless. His lectures are monotonous and I learned nothing. The way he grades online submissions is extremely harsh. If you can, take a different class.

Comment:

Marketing 101, his exams/quizzes are mostly word for word from the text. Like other said, very rude online. My advice?If you are a mkt major, take another professor. On the other hand, want an easy A? Just google all the questions from his exams/quizzes. Solutions are on the web. Good luck!

Comment:

class was easy but VERY boring. there's no point to go to class, but since less than half the class shows up, he made the last 3 classes mandatory. does tests and quizzes online which are very easy. i honestly didnt learn much, i recommend relating lectures,the text,and article to discussions. youll be fine! he is mean online, very rude, too blunt.

Overall good class. He incorporated online sessions with classroom meetings. Yes, he is boring and rude in his responses online to some students but if you complete the assignments and show up for class you will do well.

Comment:

Horrible professor. He takes a long time to respond to e-mails and his tests are literally picking random paragraphs out of the book. He knows his stuff but he just throws examples at us instead of really teaching concepts. Great example of why they're called "professors" and not "teachers" in college.

Comment:

HORRIBLE TEACHER every online review says this because it is true. The review under this must have been submitted by himself, because his online classes are terrible. He will be rude when replying, his grading method is the worst I have seen at UMass and he seems to be an "internet tuff guy" because his reviews are good in person.DONT TAKE HIS CLAS

Comment:

Took the online class with this professor. In my opinion he was cool and pretty easy. All he asks is for you to read the syllabus because that will give you a better understanding of the course structure. I did the work that was required each week (which was not too much) and got an A. With him you just have to really pay attention to his postings.

Took online class and professor was rude when replying to various posts. Very unclear as to what he expects and also very boring. Let's some students plagiarize in their responses while the people who actually take time to research and write are the ones who get penalized.. Confusing, annoying...

Very good professor. Really knows his stuff. Has real world experience and solid knowledge of business theory and practice. Treats students like adults and expects a lot out of us. In the end, you will have learned something from him.

Comment:

I took his online class. Professor was rude in responding to discussion posts, grading was completely arbitrary and with absolutely no explanation, material was completely scattered, and course objectives were totally disorganized at best. I would never take another one of his classes and would not recommend him to anyone.
