Comment:
Witty and a good storyteller, Prof. Bell manages to make the dry subject of contract law genuinely interesting. You may get lost if you don't do the readings. Don't take it personally when he (inevitably) rips apart your essay style. He'll change the way you write for the better!

Comment:
Learned more in his class than any other class taken in first year. He has an amazing ability to keep your attention throughout the entire hour and a half class. He is a hard marker but if you do all your readings, you'll be fine. If you get Bell, you're going to learn.

Great prof. very clear and organized lectures. comments on paper, though sometimes harsh, can be really helpful. can seem grumpy and mean initially but once he gets comfortable with a class he's a real softy.

Comment:
Legal History with Bell was the best class I took in law school. You can tell he loves history; he lights up when he talks about it. Very interesting class, taught by an engaging professor. He was a fair marker for this course, and would offer suggestions on paper topics and helpful resources for papers. Rather shy outside of class, but a nice guy.

Comment:
Arrogant. Presents himself as smart and studied, but failed to demonstrate any proof thereof. Teaches right from the text and adds no value.

Smart, helpful, very willing to entertain questions from students and devote time to extra classes before exams. Fair and reasonable in terms of exam questions, reading assignments, etc. Luckily, I think the Wendy's applications are a thing of the past.....

Very very intelligent person who really knows what he is teaching. However, to put it mildly, he is not very encouraging especially with the demoralizing comments on papers.

Comment:
After law school in the late 80s,I had a tough time finding a job.So I got a job working the drive-thru at Wendys.I worked my way up to assistant manager before deciding to article. After 9 years in law,I realize Bell was trying to do me a favor stapling Wendys and Ponderosa applications to mypapers

One of my favourite professors at the law school; helpful and concerned about a student's progress. Yes, he tells some people to apply for jobs at the Ponderosa but he's not mean or anything, he just wants students to try.

Wrote the word wretched on one of my exams. Still easily passed me. His bark is bad but he's a valuable voice to have in your corner. Win him over with intelligent questions and by reading BEFORE class.

He's good, he's smart, but be careful of his biting wit! Make sure you come to class with a sense of humor about law and yourself.
