I took this professor in Spring 2010. I have always been interested in the Constitution, and he really brought it to life. I still use my course materials.

Comment:

Mr. Corpora is a good professor and you will learn a lot from his class if you're willing to work for it. While there are times he goes off topic, granted it is interesting, expect to do a lot of independent studying. His tests are worth a lot but he gives sufficient extra credit. He also gives good advice on how to succeed in life. Recommended.

Comment:

University professor level at a community college. You have to do your own reading to keep up, but his lectures are both inspiring and filled with knowledge for entry-level students. Taught more about law and US History than business law, but he was filled with passion and loved his job. I'll be keeping the book and his movies.

Comment:

The only professor to make me contemplate switching majors, professor Corpora's knowledge and insight is matched only by his ability to light a fire within his students and help them summon the passion and perseverance in pursuing the study of law. An outstanding teacher that I wish I could have taken more classes with, don't miss out!

Comment:

I was so interested in this class but Professor Corpora ruined it for me. His lectures were all over the place and his tests were vague and difficult. Only reason I got a good grade is because he gives away easy points as extra credit. Really difficult to sit and listen to him when its not relevant or informative.

Comment:

Friendly, entertaining guy. Not the greatest prof though. Doesn't cover that much material. Sometimes rambles. Tests were pretty challenging since they don't really correspond to what was discussed in class. Lectures were far more basic than the exams. Really nice, helpful guy but if u want to learn the material, not sure I'd recommend him.

This professor is a University level professor. He's very good but, You have to pay attention! He's very intense about law. e packs a lot of info into 2hrs. He doesn't always break. You need to take good notes. The curriculum isn't easy. Professor Corpora is the best.

Corpora really knows his stuff, but he is very unclear and vague in what he teaches and expects. Have to teach yourself a lot. Test questions are extremely vague. He doesn't teach half of the things he thinks he has taught us.

One of the best teachers I've ever had! He really cares about his students and tries to keep classes interesting and ask for student's opinions. I really enjoyed his class. For those who said his class was too hard or he didn't explain enough - this is college! Learn how to study!

Comment:

He can be very intimidating, but is really a nice guy, and funny as well. He always talks about his Italian heritage and "martinis at two paces." He's extremely knowledgeable in his field, and is truly cares. Attend class and do the assignments and reading regularly to pass the class. Expect 3-4 exams, a 4-page court paper, and 4-6 case briefs.

Professor Corpora made this class really enjoyable. Expect: 3 exams, 4 case briefs, 1 4pg court paper and extra credit. He likes participation by students in the class and his enthusiasm helps keep the material interesting and relevant. Take great notes, attend class regularly, you'll do fine. His info is relevant to everyday business, great class

Comment:

Absolutely HATED him. He was arrogant, obnoxious and always yelling at the class. The material wasn't that hard if you read the book, and at least he was willing to answer questions. By screaming at you. He offers extra credit and is fair with grading. He's just annoying as hell. Glad to be done with him and hope I never see him again!

Let's face it, this is a law class; no matter what it's going to be hard. Slow going at first, but pay attention, read material, and USE CONNECT and you'll do fine. Not a class you can miss days or be lazy in, but he's reasonable. Do your work, engage in discussion, but most important: come to class prepared! Very reasonable expectations.

You have to read the material in order to better understand his lectures. I love him. He makes the class very interesting. No homework but a lot of reading and notes. His classes are all lectures or watching the Paralegal studies videos. He has his favorites and his nots, but if you know your material, he'll like you. :)

He taught more than just the law material in class, he taught good life lessons and keeps the class interesting with his italian stallion personality, great professor, great guy. Read the material in the textbook and listen in class. not much home work and tests are not too bad, mostly multiple choice and T or F. recommended
