Reviews of professor Gerard Jalette

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I took this class with Dr. Jalette and it honestly couldn't have been easier. You get multiple attempts on quizzes and have plenty of time to complete discussion posts and written assignments. He's pretty inconsistent with emails and didn't grade anything until literally the last minute, but he didn't seem to be a "tough" grader by any means.

He tries to be nice but sometimes can be so rude. Most of the time his lectures are really boring and he's not engaging. He also is not helpful if you have questions. The class is not bad work wise but I just didn't enjoy going to this class with him. Buy the books because there are assigned readings from them.

The material in COM381 can be difficult at times, but Professor Jalette curves test grades and provides plenty of opportunities for extra credit. His lectures are well taught and he does an excellent job of showing the relevance of the material. His passion of Communication Research is really cool, and he is always available for extra help.

Useless class, mandatory for credit. He does not teach well, a lot of useless information. The textbook taught me way more than he ever did in class. He banters a lot and hard to follow.
