Comment:

She's ridiculously smart, but unlike other professors, she genuinely wants to help you understand the material and doesn't make you feel dumb for not getting something - the flipside is she won't let you wimp out once you've asked a question. She likes THOROUGH answers, but she tells you that in advance. Take her classes. Do it!

Absolutely the most brilliant, most challenging, most enjoyable prof in my three years of law school. Plus, she's drop dead gorgeous. Even the gay guys have a crush on her!

Comment:

Should share more info on working at the SCT with Rehnquist. Also avoids bar tested areas like the plague and spends too much time on Slaughterhouse cases. Overall, a good prof.

Comment:

She is by far the most difficult grader I've ever experienced in Law School Her Wills/Trusts exam that was supposed to take 2.5 hrs should have been a 4hr exam. She has no clue how to do citations, so you are forced to overcite ad naseum, and even then she will still ding. Avoid...at all costs.

Very thought-provoking, enjoyable class. Prof. has a tendency not to respond to emails -- very frustrating when you have questions about the paper, which she is so stringent on grading.

Comment:

A very interesting class. She does such a good job of playing Devil's Advocate and will really make you think through your convictions. However, you will work your ASS OFF on the paper and se is very demanding in that respect.

Comment:

She's brilliant and tough, but nice, classy, and very helpful. I spent the entire year thinking I had no clue what was going on, and was pleasantly surprised to walk out of the class with an understanding and huge appreciation for the subject. Even influenced my choice of post law-school career.

Great professor, really understands the concepts and makes her students appreciate them as much ass she does. Really makes you think about the Constitution - you will not be disappointed, take her for con law.
