LAW 723
Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Turner is a good LRW professor. He is necessarily critical on papers, but he makes the class feel alright about getting that feedback. He loves his metaphors and likes to have fun in class.

LAW 808
Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Fantastic teacher who goes the extra mile to make sure you succeed and understand the material. Plenty of fun examples and exercises in lecture that make legal writing and researching enjoyable (if that's possible). Take his contracts drafting class if you can. Easily the most practical and helpful class I have taken so far.
