hey @ebrownrma and @bethydavis could you all try using devtools to install roleR? You would run this code:

devtools::install_github('role-model/roleR', force = TRUE)

It seems like this problem with make being missing might actually be solved by the devtools package---so let's find out by having you all run it!
