Loved this class. Coole is the coolest! She gets to the point. She is easily one of the best professors out there.
She rocks and is wicked helpful. Dont hesitate about asking her about employment.
I'm furious that I'm a senior and she isn't teaching classes that I need to take. Helpful, down to earth, responsive, field experienced, young, friendly, understanding, thoughtful.......etc
Her class was easy but only because she was so clear and helpful. This class was awesome because we learn alot too.
so helpful that she makes the other professors appear lame, this one rocks

HONEST AND BRIGHT
Absolutley the BEST professor I have ever had. She is very devoted to her job and loves it. She is always willing to lend a helping hand if you feel lost.
Prof. Coole was awesome.. Just show up to class and take notes and u shouldnt have a problem at all.. Ask questions if u have them! Her tests are exactly from the notes and DONT BUY THE BOOK its a waste of money.. awesome class ull learn a lot.. make sure u go tho, attendance does count!
best professor i ever had in my life take her
Great professor, helps you even after you graduate. Presents the information in a down to earth way. Not to much info, but just enough. Suggest you take one of her classes.
I took her because of her splendid reputation and was amazed at how awesome she truly is. She goes beyond the call of duty and is the smartest professor I have ever had!
Awesome professor. Highly motivated and strongly recommended on my part.
OUTSTANDING! JUST PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT SHE SAYS. 1 PAPER 6-8PGS, MIDYEAR AND A FINAL FOR TEST. BRILLIANT AND BEAUTIFUL, SHE IS THE WHOLE PACKAGE! GO TO CLASS AND HAVE FUN WHILE YOU LEARN!
Words honestly can't describe this womans compassion for what she teaches! Not only is she crystal clear in her lectures and she talks to you in a person to person manner. She's super understanding and always looking out for the best interest of her students! Take her as many times as you can! :)
Great teacher and honestly wants students to learn. Very helpful. study your notes and you'll do great.
awesome
She is the best! Professor Coole covers tremendous amounts of information but conveys it in such an interesting manor that it actually makes you want to learn. I loved her sociology class. She is the best teacher i have had at Bridgewater. Just go to every class and study all your notes.
One of the best professors I've ever had. I got a 115 on the final and an A overall. Had a lot of fun. Attendance is mandatory, and she rewards you if you've missed one class or less. Really nice.
She's great, not only did she make sociology really interesting, but she broke it down in a way that made everything so very understandable. Just pay attention to her and you'll be fine
really good teacher, her intro class is pretty strait forward. im def taking her for app crime theory
no BS, strait up tells you whats up. paper is easy and her test are from the notes. Def taking her for App Crim Theroy!!!
Down to earth. Easy.
I took as many classes with this professor as possible. She is very nice, polite and straight forward. Never throws any crazy assignments or test questions at you. SHE'S THE BEST PROFESSOR AT BSC I EVER HAD!
Best professor at BSU! Class was easy and very interesting. Only tests on notes. Couple of papers that are very manageable. Always willing to help out students. Really down to earth. Extra points for good attendance. Knows her stuff & has had a lot of experience in the field. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HER!
awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome. that is all.
Super nice & laid back. Gives you a study guide for tests, which are only a page long and as long as you know whats on the study guide you're getting an A. There is a presentation at the end of the semester but not hard at all. Take her for a CRJU course you wont regret it!
Lisa is SO nice and helpful, you have to be REALLY lazy not to pass this class. She gives you every opportunity to do really well. The material is also really interesting because she relates it to your life really well. Just go to class and pay attention and you'll probably get an A or B.
Awesome class knows her stuff,only one who has actually worked in the CJ field take her class it's great
She never tests you on anything she didn't teach you. She's by far the most fair teacher I've had. She gives examples for anything she goes over so you fully understand.
She was an Amazing Professor! I took her class at a winter inter-session and i was expecting 2 weeks of hell but it was so great and she is so clear about what you will be tested on. She gives you a study guide. She gives you a grade boost for attendance and bonus questions on every exam!
Best teacher I've had at bsu. So nice and understanding. Clear on everything she teaches. I wouldn't have liked the course if it wasn't for her. One of those classes where you don't even get the urge to skip because she teaches about things that you come across everyday. Very useful course. Would take her again in a heartbeat
she is AMAZING! She knows the subject inside and out...and she understands that you have a life outside of class.. 2 major tests that are not hard at all... she tells you exactly what to study... I forgot about one test and pulled off an A.. You have to write a paper but it's a no brainer! Lastly the final is an essay about a movie. TAKE HER!
Awesome class. Don't bother buying the book just study off of her notes given in class. Loved the class but I cringed everytime she used Stonehill as an example...it was my dream school :(
I've taken many classes with her. Both at massasoit and at Bridgewater. I wouldn't say her class is easy because it requires you putting in the effort but she is an amazing professor and you won't be disappointed taking a class by her.
One of my favorite profs at BSU. Ill be honest I went in with a dislike of corrections but through her class I've learned to appreciate the corrections system. She is great at teaching nice and old fashion with notes during class, sorry to kids who like slides all the time shes not too into that but don't fear she posts them. Take her!
Good prof
Professor Coole is the best professor I've had. She is very well educated in the subject and her lectures are never boring. As long as you study you will get an A. She also gives 10-15pt extra credit questions on her tests. She is also willing to help students as much as she can. I would love to take professor Coole again. Absolutely take her!!
She made the material very easy to understand and clarified anything that we needed help with and she also gave us examples from real life experiences. I really love her test style also. She has a text book but I never used it once. I just went by her notes. If you never miss class she gives you extra points towards your grade.
Prof. Coole an amazing woman / professor. She really cares about her students. Very easy grader and gives great feedback on papers. She's very eager to work with students if you want help and she makes herself very available despite her busy schedule. You won't regret taking her. No textbook required. 1 midterm, 1 final, and 2 papers. Easy course!
Took her for family/intimate relationships (sociology elective) Loved how she formatted the class. This class involved a presentation, two tests, and a reflective "unpaper." She really aims to help her students succeed. She's the most caring BSU professor I've ever met. However, most of her classes are night courses, so the price will be higher.
This is an amazing lady!! Taken most of her classes at this point, don't need textbooks for her classes as everything you need for tests will be in your notes. Makes it very clear what will be on tests, and if you miss a test she's very open to letting you make it up during her other classes even on campus of the other schools she teaches at.
Prof. Coole may be perhaps one of the most knowledgeable, and caring professors I've ever had during my career at BSU. Her brilliance, and knowledge of this subject is exceptionally profound as well as solidly conveyed, making her classes all the more interesting to take. If you have any reason at all to take a class with Lisa Coole, do it.
