Comment:

Professor makes class interesting as she always gives us real life examples of the material. Has many stories that she as a lawyer has been through and talks about many cases that make law enjoyable. I missed class quite a few times, but still managed to pass with a B. Could have easily gotten an A if I had put in more effort. Great class!

Comment:

Professor Cooper is an excellent professor for BLAW. She explains the different laws through her own personal experiences, which were very interesting. Tests can be tricky, but aren't too bad if you take good notes. Class consists of 3 easy homework assignments, 2 midterms, and 1 non-cumulative final.

She is literally all over the place and everything is backed up. Not really being clear on what she wants from a paper, even though she thinks that you make a decent paper, she could fail your papers.

Her lectures are really great. Her real-life examples make it really interesting and help you understand. Everything she says is on the exam (literally), so take really really good notes. You will need them. Her tests aren't too bad but several questions are tricky. 3 exams and 3 not hard hw assignments.

Comment:

Grade is based on 2 in class written exams, few other writing assignments, and a group project. There is no textbook and she is not clear on what she wants so make sure to ask a lots of questions. Also make note of her opinions bc if you disagree with her she will give you a poor grade. Sometimes disrespectful towards students/has low expectations

Comment:

She's a nice teacher, but she doesn't provide enough guidance on what she expects for her hard essays. An example of what she would expect would be explaining how an environmental law fits into a social problem. If you do have her, make sure you ask her to proofread your paper before you turn it in.

Comment:

Professor Cooper's class was very interesting. You learn many ethical models and some business law and need to apply them to discussions and essays. There are many essays but all she wants to see is that you took the class and can apply the models. There are many discussions so participation is IMPORTANT! Overall, really fun and interesting class!

Comment:

She's a fairly decent professor. Lectures aren't extremely difficult, but she expects you to do a lot of research outside of class. Assigned 5 papers (1 group, 2 inclass, 2 take home), group presentation, and inclass essays for midterm and final. Instructions could be a bit more clear and grading rubrics aren't shown until after you turn in papers.

Comment:

She is the best business law professor. Her lectures are very enjoyable and relatable. Marsha really ties in real life experiences to the lectures. Whatever she says is on the test, WILL BE on the test. Her tests are multiple choice but can be tricky sometimes. Best of all, some of my classmates want to go to Law School because of her now.

3 homeworks & 3 exams. Homeworks are very easy. Exams are based on class lectures. You'll be fine without a book for the exams, if you take good notes. AND DO TAKE NOTE OF EVERYTHING SHE SAYS. Although, there were 2 or 3 questions from the homework that came from the book so I recommend to just share a book with someone to split the cost.

I took this class last Fall as my final capstone and it was great. Be prepared to participate in group discussions and remember to use key words/phrases on the midterms/final.

Tests are tricky, hw is easy & she's very helpful. No extra credit, must know the material & terms. Attend class, she gives a lot of examples that help w/the exam. Textbook is helpful when reviewing & following along w/lecture (on powerpoint). Don't need to bring text to class. She has a study guide & practice questions. Final not cummulative
