Professor Rocklage made class enjoyable to go to– great examples that are engaging and relevant to coursework, and as long as you read the textbook chapters and engage in lectures, this class is very doable. Were times when rubrics weren't totally clear, but there are opportunities to clarify. Attendance is not required, but go to lectures!MKTG2201 2025-12-16 20:19:08 +0000 UTC
TAKE MKTG WITH HIM! When I took it in spring 2023, professor Rocklage administered a total of 4 exams, including the final. He will encourage you to read the textbook, but you do not need to. His lectures are VERY engaging and the study guides are sufficient for review.MKTG2301 2023-05-08 00:55:29 +0000 UTC
Good guy with entertaining lectures. Take him if you're passionate about marketing. If you're not into it like me, it may be a bother. 4 exams, writing exercises, group presentation, etc. The feedback/rubrics were unclear. I was there because I had to be. I do not regret taking it with him; I am just glad it's over. Average class and doable.MKTG2201 2025-12-15 04:49:13 +0000 UTC
He is perfect.MKTG2301 2019-04-11 22:06:22 +0000 UTC
I cannot recommend professor Rocklage more. I've never seen a professor with such enthusiasm and will to teach than I have for him. He's funny, always keeps class engaged, and lets you look forward to your day. Class is always interesting with him, he always plays music or uses really good analogies. TAKE HIM.MKTG2201 2025-12-05 03:11:17 +0000 UTC

Definitely take marketing w professor Rocklage! He makes his lectures engaging with lots of great examples to help you understand the content. The textbook readings aren't really necessary as long as you attend the lectures. Really loved taking this class with him, he's very caring and wants to help his students as much as possible.MKTG2201 2023-03-20 15:08:38 +0000 UTC
I don't think any other professor could have prepared me more for my marketing concentration than Prof Rocklage. His lectures helped me learn so much and he gave many relevant examples. If you can, take Prof Rocklage! Be prepared to read the textbook and for a hefty group project. When he says to make it creative, listen to him.MKTG2201 2022-12-13 22:50:22 +0000 UTC
Professor Rocklage gave amazing lectures and gave memorable acronyms to memorize content. He is a fair grader and gives exam reviews for each test. I highly recommend him.MKTG2201 2022-11-16 03:16:17 +0000 UTC
Prof Rocklage has to be the best prof for MKTG at NU. His lectures are very interesting including real-life examples. He always starts a lecture by turning on some great music that are related to the topics, which I think is very creative. 4 non-cumulative exams but as long as you come to class and pay attention, you should get an A at the end.MKTG2201 2019-06-26 14:54:15 +0000 UTC
Super clear and straightforward lectures and content, treats students with respect and his lectures are really fun and interesting, highly recommend!MKTG2201 2019-04-21 20:49:54 +0000 UTC
Let's put it this way - I will take any class that Professor Rocklage teaches. He's such a great professor and I learned so much in my Intro to Marketing class with him. His lectures inspired me to take up Marketing as a concentration. His lectures are interesting, filled with real-life examples and music at the start of every presentation.MKTG2201 2019-04-16 15:26:42 +0000 UTC
Professor Rocklage is a great professor that makes an effort to make material heavy lectures interesting. Each day starts with music related to our chapter and he often brings up funny stories that relate to what we are learning in class. The exams are very straightforward so as long as you study you will get an A in the class.MKTG2201 2018-11-14 18:57:11 +0000 UTC
