Fall 2023 - Such an easy A -- I am positive 100% of the class got an A. He is a full time lawyer and teachers part time so he has no time for class. I'm pretty sure he never read a single one of our assignments or our final essay. Seriously, take this class. Syllabus consisted of a short write up to turn in before class -- super simple, easy, you can write it however you want. Just anything related to the class. And then the final is just a 7 page paper. No exams, no midterms, no quizzes. Really, freaking easy.
