Mrs Notd teaches an extremely dull justice studies class. The lectures are bland and boring except for the current event discussions. You might as well not come at all. The notes online and textbook are more than enough for an A. She does know her stuff and is very knowledgable in politics. Her anti republican rants are inspiring!

Easy class, can easily pass without attending class. Easy marker on tests and the paper. She summarizes the textbook in great detail in her slides that she posts online so the book is not really necessary.

Took the class because it was mandatory but Heather actually made it interesting - lots of real life stories. She was also very helpful, I'd take another class from her.

I'm currently taking her JS 230 class, and she is probably the best prof I have had in my three years of university. She has a lot of energy and is very passionate about what she teaches. Of course we are only a couple weeks into the semester but I just had to tell everyone how awesome she is

Attending class is not mandatory but she does give good examples to help you understand the content, the exams are pretty straight forward and if you put effort in to the paper, you'll get a decent mark. She is sometimes interesting to listen to and very outgoing.

Great prof! I enjoyed listening to her lectures, as she is extremely knowledgeable in her field. She is quite funny and likes to keep the class engaged. Do not take one of her classes if you are looking for an easy A... Her classes require you to work very hard for a good mark, but I will still take another class from her if I ever get the chance.

She was the best professor which I have ever had. She teaches with a passion and makes the information super easy to understand and very exciting (no small feat for an intro to Canadian Law class). She spent countless hours with me discussing issues regarding both life and the assignments. Professor Nord became not only my teacher but my friend

Heather's outgoing energy and passion for justice studies makes it easy to love her class. I found she was a pretty easy marker too. She is great at replying to emails and will lend help if you ask for it. I would take another class from her!

I was worried the class would be long & boring (Business Law). But Heather was happy, funny, & a bit cooky that she made the class fun & the material really interesting. As long as you pay attention in class & read the chapters you will pass. Expect to write for the full 3 hours on tests. Rarely kept us in class the full 3 hours though!

Heater is a good prof. She will make you laugh and talk about current issues. The lectures can get a little boring. I would recommend showing up at least once in a while although the slides are on UR Courses and read the textbook it helps, otherwise it's a fairly easy class! I look forward to having her in the future.

I'm in my fourth year and Heather is one of my favourite profs ever. She is intelligent and has a great personality. You must attend class to pass due to an attendance sheet. She gives difficult assignments but is a fair marker. Please take her class!

Heather is super funny. Very knowledgable about law. Puts chapters from text into slides, so reading the book is not essential. No papers. 2 midterms and a final. Multiple choice, t/f and short answer. Studying for the exams is a must. Understand the big concepts and you will be fine!

Great prof, recommend her to anyone.

Heather is truly dedicated to her profession. A real inspiration - is able to convey her messages and thoughts like no other prof I've ever came across. Heather is very polite and has a great sense of humor. Cheatsheet allowed for both midterm and final. a 15% essay is very interesting as well. The best prof in my three years of schooling.

Heather truly cares about student learning. She is very fair and can draw on personal experiences to add realism to the lectures. She always welcomes debate and discussion on topics. Assignments were interesting and enjoyable (believe it or not!) and exams were very fair.

This is the best prof that I've ever had. I took JS 100 from her. She's so funny and such a colourful person! The lectures aren't really related to what she asks on the exams, instead they apply the concepts from the chapter readings. Read the textbook and learn the material. You need to study a lot but you'll be rewarded for it.

Heather is by far the best prof I have ever had! She is the sweetest lady in the entire world. The only way you will not do well is if you do not study or do your work. She marks fairly and is always willing to help in any way she can. Extremely knowledgeable and overall a good person. Took her for JS 100 as well. Thumbs up!

Heather is a great prof and very honest! The beginning of the semester seemed overwhelming but she tells you exactly what to expect on exams. The lectures are heavy and fast-paced, however, she explain concepts so you can easily understand. You get a cheat sheet for the midterm and final. The textbook is very helpful.

Heather is an amazing prof. She knows her stuff and is passionate about justice studies. Her lectures are jam packed usually but she tries to make them as interesting and easy to follow as possible. Her exams are long but easy if you study the right stuff & she tells you exactly what to study. Her exams are more applied knowledge than memorizing.

Although the course content is dry, Heather's lectures were really enjoyable. She supplemented lectures with stories about her real life experiences, and welcomed questions from students regarding different legal aspects. Crib sheet for both the midterm and final makes them easy, she has 3 large papers worth a small percentage and marks quite tough

Read slides - use textbook if unsure of some terms. Start papers as soon as you know the subject! She marks hard and they are mandatory - a lot of reading involved. She has great stories!! Tough marker and sometimes gets cranky if you don't do your readings but overall I learned a lot and she is a treat.

I really enjoyed the context of every lecture. Highly recommend Heather Nord! So far my favourite Professor.

Awesome person and awesome proff. She's really passionate about what she teaches, and makes an effort to make the material interesting to the class. The assignments and tests do require some effort, so pay attention in class. But other than that, shes a solid proff.

Heather was a great prof! I had her for several classes during my university career. At first she seems intimidating, but building a relationship and connection with her, made me really enjoy the class.

As a lawyer herself, she makes an excellent law professor. Got an 80% on her first paper then grading gradually got tougher. A lot to learn but she is very knowledgeable and friendly! I really enjoyed her class. In the great words of Heather, "Sue the pants off everyone!".

The class is going to a lot of work, but that's more by nature of the content than it is some sort of fault of Heather's. She does have high expectations, but it's because she has a genuine interest in having her students learn and appreciate the history and process of the law. Classes will be enjoyable so long as you're willing to put in effort.

Heather is an amazing prof and a very caring kind hearted lady. While taking this class I had several issues with technology and minor setbacks. Heather always went out of her way to correct things for me and assured I was taken care of. She promptly responded to countless emails and never got frustrated or gave up her efforts. If all profs cared..

Heather is an incredibly brilliant professor. She is so intelligent and knows everything there is to know about the criminal justice system. With further experience as a lawyer, she really does know all fields. She's very respectful and wise and loves chatting about current events. She expects you to read the text yourself and know material on own.

I love Heather, she is such a kind hearted lady. She was very effective in marking and responding to emails. Her online course was set up very well, she emailed every Monday letting us know what was up for the week and important things to remember. Lecture slides are kind of long since they are from the textbook but it is interesting material.

If you are looking to learn something your choice is simple. Take her. You will be required to do more work than most other lecturers but you come out knowing something. If you are afraid to do more than the norm take some one else.

Heather is a great prof who understands what she is teaching and explains it so well to her students. heather is a tough grader and you MUST study for the exams or you will probably fail. Heather gives great detail into the justice system as she was a lawyer so she understands how hard it can be. Heather is one of the best JS Profs.

Heather is a decent prof compared to others. She has real quality powerpoints made and that is pretty much all you need. It is alot of content and some powerpoints have 120+ slides. She has some great stories to tie the content together. Overall, I would recommend Heather and I have had only positive experiences from her.

Heather is by far one of the best profs I've had. Her lectures are clear, she provides the powerpoints to you. The textbook she uses was easy to read. Assignments marked very clearly and she's super easy to email and talk to! She's very passionate about the subject matter and it shows in her teaching style.

Heather is by far my favourite professor I have ever had. She makes classes fun and entertaining while still explaining the content well. She has a ton of powerpoint slides, but goes through all of them in class. For this class, she only had two forum posts, a midterm and a final. You will need to work for your marks, as she has high expectations.

Im in my second year and have had many profs. Heather is hands down my favourite prof ever. She is so nice in class and makes sure everyone understands the concepts. She is so easy to talk to outside of class and encourages it. She is so understanding as well. She posts a lot of ppt slides so she never leaves any info out for quizzes/exams.

Heather is a professional instructor and a lawyer. She will assign textbook reading and post relevant PPT to UR Courses. Her lecture is clear and logical. She is a tough grader. There is a lot of content to memorize, but we can use a study sheet during exams. Taking her course must work very hard.

Professor Nord not only teaches law she also teaches students how to properly cite while doing assignments. I feel anyone who badmouths her did a poor job and got a bad grade and that's on you. Her forums are treated as full assignments in lieu of writing papers. if you read the textbook you are more than prepared for the lengthy assignment.

She gets off topic and doesn't lecture what she is supposed to. She leaves you to go through 200+ slides on your own time (for each lecture that she did not teach). That being said, she is a very kind lady and really cares for her students. lots of slides, pleasant lady, okay marker.I thought I did bad on an assignment but I got a 80, so she's good

Super nice and caring professor. One annoying assignment but it's only worth 10%. The rest of the grades were from quizzes/midterm/final- All multiple-choice/TF. Lots of material/content but not too heavy of a workload.

I actually really liked her, despite the many bad ratings. She was very insightful in her notes/slideshows (although long). She was so kind and motivating in her feedback! One of my favourite classes! I will definitely be taking another class with her!

Heather is awesome. She is very accessible and has never failed to answer a question I had thoroughly, in fact, she once went through an entire forum discussion with me (it was at least 10 pages long) and explained every mistake I made.

She is hand down the most amazing prof. If you are looking to learn something she is the one, we need more like her. she truly is amazing and puts so much effort to ensure we learn something. I admire her.

Heather, although tough, is an amazing professor. She has lots of experience, and uses her own experience to draw on her lecture points and information from the text. She also provides PowerPoint slides with very specific detail that was covered in her lectures and the text. I would take a class from Heather whenever possible. Also is flexible!

Heather is a wonderul person and a wonderful prof - 10/10 made me feel like Harvey Specter from Suits

Great prof
