She was truly a great professor! I really enjoyed this class and I even considered changing my major to business law. She makes everything very easy to understand and provides great notes and reviews so you are set for the exams and the final. If you want to do well in business law, take her class!

Comment:

The material is difficult but she makes it easy to understand by providing examples in class. She goes over what receives full credit for exam responses. She is one of the only professors in law department that gives multiple choice exams. You have to study hard for the exams because they are 85% of your grade.

Comment:

She is strict. While you see her as someone who is soft talking, the lecture is not as easy as it sounds, because there are lot of material. She does not prepare you well for the exam and mid term. It is tricky, because it looks easy, but she takes away lot of points. No curve, definitely not. she is very stubborn. Can easily damage your grade.

Funny and makes difficult topics easy to understand, 25 min video group project about an area of employment law, both midterm and final are online. 30pt timed quiz and 70pts for essays and short response. Calls on people to answer homework questions, really easy if you do the homework and read the chapters. Discussion Board post every Wednesday

Comment:

She's an amazing law professor who clearly analyzes examples of case scenarios that help clarify the material. She takes time to thoroughly answer questions, & I understood more from her than from the textbook. Also, participation is part of the grade but she doesn't force anyone to answer questions. Take her - one of the best professors I know

Intelligent, witty, hilarious and engaging. A professor with completely realistic expectations. I would take her 100x if I could. Listen to her lectures and you'll do fine.

She is very engaging, I'm taking her again next semester as a sixth class because her class is very manageable if you pay attention in class and do the homework.

Comment:

Great powerpoint lectures. Tests are fairly easy if you take notes and paid attention in class. She explains everything thoroughly and there are no case studies in this class. 2 Midterms, 1 Departmental Final. Lots of homework but it helps with exams. Don't come in late, especially don't come in with headphones. She's funny and entertains herself.

Comment:

Never missed class and took notes on almost everything she said. By the end of the semester, I had a 32 page booklet compiled of all the notes I ever made, after editing them. Final was cumulative. Read it over a few times and I was good. Got a 100 on both midterms. No surprises, everything from class is on the exam. Don't come in late, trust me.

One of the best professors at Baruch. No need for the textbook, just follow her slides. Very straightforward exams. Prepares you tremendously. Takes her time to answer your in class questions! Highly recommended!

AMAZING! She has the rare ability to make PowerPoint presentations and lectures engaging, and so clearly describes just how certain law concepts and theories impact business. Excellent at explaining to non-lawyers. Not enough space to adequately explain her - just take her class. I hate it's only a 1.5 credit course! Want more Kaminer!

Professor Kaminer is my favorite professor at Baruch so far. She is very clear and concise in her explanations of the law and uses very interesting examples that I still remember and discuss with others. I am so sad this was only a half semester course.

Prof Kaminer is one of the best in the Law dept. She teaches in a manner for her students to really learn the material, not just memorize. For employment law 1 midterm and final (both open book). Participation and homework is 15% of your grade so do it. She hates lateness and phones so act accordingly. Easy group project also. Must take.

SHE IS SERIOUSLY THE BEST YOU CAN TAKE. So knowledgeable, hilarious, smart and helpful. It made a lot of people in my class thinking of continuing studying law. She's very serious and cold with students but if you show you're working she'll help you! I will definitely try to take her again!

Overall, a good class. More interesting and relevant than expected. Prof. gives great lectures and explains the introductory material well to those with no background in law. Takes attendance and factors in class participation. Had 1 midterm (she cancelled the final exam), 1 individual paper, and 1 group presentation. Easy grader.

She takes attendance. Overall I loved the class. There is a group project which can be annoying but not impossible. She usually sticks to her PPT material for her tests so if you don't have book money you can still get a good grade.
