Loved taking this class with Merolla, he was clear on what needed to be done and was an amazing lecturer. Class was never boring but the TA's are not that great. Definitely recommend this professor.

If you are a comm major you should definitely take a class with Professor Merolla, he has a really insightful and clear view on communication as a field of study and he's a great teacher. Straightforward lectures and assignments, three online exams that are easy to do well on if you take notes.

Hands down the best professor I have ever had. Merolla gives great lectures and his courses never fail to be interesting and thought provoking. If you're a comm student, definitely take one of his courses.

With Comm 88 being my first class of the day in my first quarter, Professor Merolla made joining this school way less intimidating. The times I went to office hours were super helpful and the homework actually felt useful in understanding the concept of research. I'd definitely take his class again and am hoping to do so in the future!

This is my second time taking one of Merolla's classes and he has to be one of the best professors on campus if not THE best. He is extremely good at presenting and lecturing about the subjects which makes learning genuinely fascinating. He really cares about his students and it's reflected in his organized class format. I HIGHLY recommend him!

I'm amazed at how organized the class structure was even though it was 3 weeks and my first upper-division comm (A great start to summer classes). Such an inspirational class to learn how to manage conflict and I learned a lot! I also look forward to taking COMM111 in the fall.
