OLDFall 2022 Law School Course Evaluations

from the beginning has made the class elevate our work and come into class prepared to lead the class in discussion. You know that when you ' re called on you will be grilled a little, but with that I have found that I come to now all of my classes prepared more so than I would have otherwise and I know more of the material that I thought I did when tested on it.
