This is a pretty standard difficulty intro-level class. It is very similar to an AP course, with lectures in-class and readings/vocabulary for homework. The biggest complaint of people that take this class is that there is too much vocabulary to remember, but she provides an exam term list (which is very helpful because most professors do not do this) before every test so if you use the book and lectures to make a quizlet or flashcards, you will do just fine. The quizzes and exams are adequately challenging and you DO have to study for them, but she drops the lowest quiz grade and gives you extra credit opportunity for exams. You should note, however, that the exam material comes directly from the lecture slides (which are not recorded or posted), so please take notes and show up to class if you want to get a good grade. If you rely on the textbook to study for the exam, you will not get an A because there will be topics covered in class and not in the textbook and vice versa. Overall, I had a great experience with this class! Professor Romm is really nice and approachable. She also has a great fashion sense and is really passionate about what she teaches!

Madeline Romm was a 5/5 professor for me. She was dedicated to each students success and understanding within the course. I felt encouragement daily in the course. She had a clear, engaging, and highly effective method of teaching. Thank you Professor Romm!

Very nice and considerate teacher. Exams are pretty similar to the reviews with a lot of extra credit. Lectures are annoying because she doesn't post any notes, but if you take notes and pay attention you should do well.

I absolutely loved Ms. Romm. She was lecture heavy and did go through a lot of information, but she was very knowledgeable in what she taught so it was all very engaging. As long as you take really good notes, you should be set to pass the class. She is very generous with extra credit and grades super fairly. I really recommend her!

Professor Romm was one of the most incredible professors I have had this semester. She always brings an enjoyable and uplifting attitude to class as well as awesome fits. While her teaching style is mainly PowerPoint based, she makes sure to spend time on slides in which she has more information on and goes in depth if you have a question about anything on said slides. She does not post the presentations at the end of class so you are required to take diligent notes to the best of your ability. However, if you have missed any points within the presentation, she will go back to them at the end so you are able to get all the necessary information. Although there is a decent amount of material for the exams, they are based on a certain grouping of chapters which makes it easier as there are less terms to study for. There is a decently heavy reliance on the textbook readings as some of the discussion questions do not relate to the presentations but more so the chapters, but it is fairly light reading and not difficult to follow. All in all, this class was challenging as far as an intro class goes, but Professor Romm is incredible and understand personal conflicts in terms of necessity with time off. An amazing professor for an amazing class.

Madeline Romm is one of the nicest professors I've had the pleasure of meeting. She always comes in with a stylish outfit and a great attitude to start the class. She does not post lectures after class, so you must be engaged. She will return to slides if you've missed them/if they're too long. She drops the lowest quiz grade, and there are extra credit opportunities before each exam. Between you and me, I've never read a single page of the textbook yet I have a 96. Discussion boards are short and easy. Exams are 50 multiple-choice questions that come straight from the lecture. Quizzes consist of multiple choice, short answer, fill in the blank, etc. All in all, it is super light work (no reaction).

Ms. Romm was absolutely wonderful! She was willing to send the PowerPoint from whichever day you missed, and was very understanding. Even though there was a lot of study terms for the exams and only a small number of them were included in the exam, they were all very important and linked together in some way. Also, they were all very valuable to those looking to continue Criminal Justice throughout college. We were also very fortunate to have a teacher who provided a list of terms, since a lot of professors do not. College is much harder than high school , so this class being a challenge did not and should not come as a surprise. She was also more than willing to meet with students if they needed help or had questions. Overall, an amazing teacher and I learned so much!

I know outside of teaching she may be a good person, however teaching is not something that she should pursue. Her teaching style is reading off a slideshow everyday and memorizing thousands of terms for exams. Her exams are also scheduled at the most inconvenient times and she is not very understanding if you need to miss class. For a freshman, introductory level course, it was by far my hardest and most time consuming course I had. The homework is just reading the same textbook.
