Professor Rose was phenomenal & one of my favorite professors. His lectures are engaging & he is extremely knowledgeable about the media & communications industries. Definitely take him if you're looking to learn a lot, work hard, & have a professor who truly cares about each of his students! I would absolutely take another class with him again.

Comment:

Professor Rose was the only professor my first semester who really challenged me. His lectures are consistently engaging but he expects a lot from each of his students. If you think you can meet some high expectations, take his class. He's extremely helpful, very clear in what he wants, and very passionate and knowledgeable about what he's teaching

Comment:

I took Professor Rose's internship seminar after taking his Intro to Media Industries a few semesters ago. There's absolutely nothing bad to say about the experience with this class. The discussion board assignments we had were like journaling and he has a genuine interest in how students will take their careers. Take him, you won't regret it.

Professor Rose gives a lot of homework and reading. It is a lot to keep track of but he does send out helpful emails keeping you up to date. The workload is worth it because the lectures are very interesting and the homework/paper topics usually are as well. Beyond that, Prof Rose is just a pleasant professor to have and his passion is contagious

Although the workload was intense and there was a ton of reading, I wouldn't hesitate to take him again. This man responds to emails instantaneously and you are able to get help in an instant. The assignments he gives for outside of class are very fun as well. His lectures are interesting but take good notes. Great professor.

Professor Rose is accomplished in the industry. He's a tough grader, and he really cares about interest. Sit in the front. Answer questions. Come to class. You NEED to pay attention in the lectures. Take good notes, and read the current events articles: you're tested on them. There's weekly quizzes, usually based on the book, so yeah, you need it.

Comment:

By far the BEST professor I have ever had at Fordham. This review mirrors the others, but I will reiterate. The workload is INTENSE so be prepared for multiple assignments due within days of each other. Midterm and final are extremely difficult, however he is a phenomenal professor and I learned so much from him. He knows his stuff. Take him!

One of the wisest professors I have had at Fordham. Class is lecture style but very engaging with presentations. He gives a lot of assignments but all are extremely meaningful and worth the time. If you are a Comm major you have to take his class- will learn so be able to connect the dots between the past, present and future of all media industries

I love Prof. Rose!! If you are majoring in Communication, you have to take at least one class with him! He gives a lot of work, but you'll learn a lot. As long as you put a little effort in, you'll do well! He is lightning fast with responses. If you send him a paper he'll get it back to you in like 10 minutes. Insane.

He gives a lot of work! HW assignments are only 5% of the grade but there are like 16 of them in one semester!However, he is a fantastic professor who encourages students to be both analytical and critical about the media industries today. Very engaging lecturer. Never a dull moment. Midterm & final are LONG and really overwhelming. You learn a lot

Comment:

One of the best professors at FU. Not only is he a media god, but he's friendly and eager to help individual students as well. Classes with him are actually FUN, esp. the smaller classes, and many of his students sign up for the courses he teaches just because he's teaching them. Makes you work, but all the info's valuable. Has taught media execs.

Comment:

Took him for Internship Seminar. You can tell he's a good professor but he gives way too much work for interns who are already slaving away, giving 20+ hours a week to a course where they are getting 4 credits. Too much busy-work and writing that means nothing for a class that is pass/fail.

He is a great professor. The material covered is worth knowing. He is not an easy grader, but he puhes you to get a better grade. He is very funny, and keeps you awake. You'll have such a good time learning you would wish the class endured 3hr class. That's how good he was. Take him, take him, take him and oh yeah TAKE HIM!!!!!
