Comment:

Took lpp255 with a different professor and noticed a huge difference in clarity. Cihon talks like a lawyer. Hes talking a lot but youre never sure what he just said. Master his grading format or suffer. COuldnt get what he exactly wanted with my answers (legal question grading format is confusing).

Comment:

He is a good guy who knows what he is talking about. He talks alot about the subject so it is best to be there and take notes. Tests are open note so it is best to be there. He can be boring at times, his voice is so soothing to the point where falling asleep is not an option. He is willing to help you if you don't understand certain topics.

Comment:

You will get blasted on the first writing assignment but if you follow the exact formula he tells you when grading that assignment you'll be good. If you participate he'll boost your grade. Easy to get by without the expensive textbook. Everything is open note and book.

He wants his students to do well, hes a nice guy but really didnt lay out expectations for the first writing assignment. Once you understand what he wants its easy. The material is kind of boring

Comment:

This is one of the first classes I took at S.U. after transferring with my associates in general study. This class was so boring. I thought this class would be soo interesting but man was I wrong. Choose another professor if possible. He's tough, I am a 4.6 gpa student and I received a C in his class.. Don't bother with this one.

Rice is best 255 teacher, so people get up at 8am to take him. Cihon is good, but not the easiest to understand.

Comment:

class is one of the most boring classes i have ever taken, just summarizes chapters using slides and monotone voice, yet requires you to attend and calls you out for using your phone (dont even think about being able to use your laptop). hes a jerk - i thought this class would make me more interested in business law and it made me hate it.

Comment:

Nice guy. Hard grader, but once you figure out how to take the tests its not so bad. Plus its open book open note, which can help sometimes. No homework, either, which isn't true for most of the other LPP profs. Overall not too bad.

Comment:

I learned so much with this prof. class can be a bit boring sometimes and he is a hard grader but tests are open book/notes. as long as you go to every class, dont fall asleep, and write everything that you think its important, you'll be ok.

Nice guy, but the class is a bit boring. If you go to his office, he'll really try to help you learn. He's a pretty tough grader, though.
