He's a practicing attorney and interjects interesting and sometimes funny stories of cases into his lectures. He is somewhat scattered and wordy in his lectures, though, but he goes above and beyond what is expected to make sure you have an opportunity to learn and do well.
Good teacher, has relevant cases from his own work to relate to the material. Learned a lot about IP Law. Recommended
Mr. Wilkinson is very fair in grading tests. He takes forever to post grades and does not return test papers. He posts his lecture notes on WebCT after each lecture. Use the lecture notes to study and read the chapters and you will ace the tests. He doesn't take attendance but I HIGHLY recommend you attend each class.
Great Teacher; Very Organized; Gives you all his notes; gives take home tests which make up your complete grade; take home tests consist of multiple choice, true/false and essay(which are extra credit). He likes it when you go to class and won't give a final if you do. Basically, do take home tests with the book, go to class, and you'll get an A
He's the man. Everybody in my class made an "A" Kindof boring at times. Take home tests. They are kind of hard but he gives mad extra credit. Gotta take him.
Excellent instructor. He really cares about the students and will work with you. Take home tests and extra credit.
Great professor! Tests are take-home, kinda hard, but you have the book! His lectures are slow at times, but he tells really funny stories about cases he's worked (he's a lawyer). Really smart, you can tell he loves the subject. He does really good relating the material to real life. Classes aren't mandatory but he gives extra credit.
Best d**n instructor at Kennesaw State. If you don't take his class, you'll be missing out.
Awesome Professor!! Take-Home Tests and tons of extra credit! Make sure to do the essay questions on the take-home exams, they are not mandatory, but they are worth lots of extra credit! I had a C going into the final and because of all the extra credit essay's on the final I came out with an A in the class!! He's the best out there!!
No Comments
Great guy. Knew his stuff. All tests were take home and for the most part straight from the book. Gives tons of extra credit. Go to class and listen and interact, it helps. Definitely have the text book, you WILL use it.
Awesome teacher! You learn a lot this class. Go to class because he using personal experiences to make it easier to learn. He has got to be the best teacher at KSU.
Great professor. Teaches through experience.
AWESOME TEACHER! I took Jones the first time I signed up for BLAW and dropped him after the first day of class, Wilkinson is the way to go! Speaks to class as adults, easily contacted, Tests are online and gives you DAYS (if not a week) to complete! Buy Book, Print lecture notes, minimal studying required!
Mr. Wilkinson is fatastic! All the tests are take-home 100 questions M/C and T/F with 3 easy short answer/essay bonus questions. He gives extra credit for attendance. You don't need to attend, but he is so entertaining it would be a shame to miss. Buy the book!
Excellent professor. Easy A, 4 tests on line you need the book for sure because the answers to the test are taken right from it. He will give you 5 days to complete the test on line at home with open book. The lectures are great; he is very funny and he gives extra points for being in class. Take this class for the entertaining and the EASY A.
Great Professor. He's an attorney,so he tells alot of funny/interesting story about his past cases. Attendance is not mandatory, but he will give extra credit for students who show up. Gave 2 online tests, they were HARD, he give 7 days to complete the tests.
3 open book tests online you have 1 week to take them with unlimited time so I literally looked up every single answer, no attendance policy. Definitely need text book, but easy A if you take time on the tests.
3 Exams. Open book. the material is boring but the professor is not. Gives extra credit on random days for attendance. Lots of real world experience. Take him! you will enjoy his class.
This is the easiest class in the world, not to mention the professor is SO AWSOME. He's a lawyer so he tells you about his cool court cases. This is the best possible scenario: Easy Tests, Fun Stories, Easy Extra Credit, no attendance, you couldn't make this class better!
Very easy class, fun discussions. The guy tells great stories and provides excellent feedback on the tests, which are open-book, open-note, and very easy. Detailed notes given after each class. Heck of a nice guy, too.
Simply the man! Prof. Wilkinson is the coolest teacher you can take at Kennesaw. The material in this class would otherwise be extremely difficult if not for the professor. We had 4 tests, all online (so you can use the text), and you get roughly 5 days to take the exam. The tests were 100 mc with 3 essays which were extra credit.
TAKE THIS CLASS!if you want to learn, and get an easy A, then take it.there are 4 online tests (100 mult choice and 3 optional essay that are bonus) that are open everything.you have 3-4 days to do them.he is completely reasonable in everything, and is the perfect professor to have for this. TAKE this class, even at a bad time. it is worth it
Easy A. This prof rocks! You get a few days to take online exams, & plenty extra credit from attendance & essay ?'s.
Took Dr. W for Intellectual Property. Hands down, the best professor I've had at KSU. Respects you as professionals and understands if you have to miss a class. Responds to e-mails and questions quickly. A lot of reading but an easy A if you make a small effort. I hope this guy continues teaching at KSU because he is really awesome. TAKE HIM!!
Dr. Wilkinson is an awesome professor and very funny.
This professor was awesome! I truly wish every teacher was like him. made it simple, interesting and clear. couldnt ask for more. tests online
BORING SUBJECT!!!!!! Easy class. Great teacher. Tests are online. Open book. 4 days to complete. You need 4 days to complete. Hate the subject, got an A.
He is an AWESOME teacher! We did use the text book, but he provided ppts, and outlines for each chapter. (The material is harder if your are not in class for the discussions) A small part of my grade was for participation. We used the information we learned to write two papers (mid-term and final)which accounted for the majority of our grade.
(took in spring)-Great teacher! Provided ppt and outlines for textbook. The final grade was based on (2-3) take home tests that he would give you 5 day to work on. They were hard, don't want till the last minute to try to complete them. Hope to take him again for another BLAW class!
This is the professor to take. You get 4 tests, all online. No attendance and you'll see hardly anyone attends class in the end, but he does give extra credit to those that do. All tests are 100 points, multiple choice, have a week to complete online, with 3 essay questions worth 30 points extra credit. He even gave everyone a 100 on the final exam
EASY EASY EASY!!! All test are online.. easy but dont wait til the last minute to do it (100 questions + 3 bonus essays). Don't go to class, it's pointless. Just get the book and do the test! EASY A!
This professor is an easy A. The only grades are 4 online tests. Attendance isn't mandatory but it's definitely worth it especially when he gives extra credit. I really enjoyed his class. I went to class because I enjoyed his lectures. You don't find many professors like that.
Easiest class I've taken, probably ever. If you don't get an A, you have serious problems. 4 online exams, answers found in book. Each exam has xcred opportunity of 30 pts. Class is pointless & doesn't take attendance. Didn't learn anything in lectures. Never went to class but when I 1st did, he sometimes told funny stories. TAKE HIM FOR AN EASY A.
This class is VERY easy! You will get an A. Attendance is not mandatory, don't need to buy the book. 4 tests all online. He is a very nice professor, he does everything he can to help you.
4 exams. 100 points each. 350/400 points is an A. All tests are online. You get usually 5-6 days to complete with unlimited amount of time to look@ it within that time frame. 100 ?s each. 3 bonus free response questions at the end of each test worth a total of 30 points. May not even have to take 4th test for A He knows his stuff and is a nice man.
Lectures are a draaaag! Take home tests, piece of cake!
This is literally the easiest class I have ever taken. There are 4 open book online tests and on top of that, for each test, there are 3 bonus questions worth 10 points each. I had so many bonus points I was exempt from the final. DO show up for class, though. He takes off points for absences. I made a solid 114% in this class.
I took this professor for BLAW 2200 and loved his course. This one was set up a bit different but still overall pretty easy. Tests are 100 questions Multiple Choice and TrueFalse. The test was curved since ethics can be interpreted differently. You have 3 tests and a final which was an easy essay.
Awesome professor! It's an easy and straight-forward class! All tests are 100 questions and online, and he gives 3 optional questions you can answer for possible bonus points.
AWESOME teacher! If only all teachers were as great as Mr. Wilkinson. He has hilarious stories relating to the course material and has a very nice, helpful personality. He truly cares about his students and it shows. If a professor wants to know how to be the best, just sit in on one of Wilkinson's classes.
Prof Wilkinson runs a very clear class. He's very upfront about what he wants. He lectures basically from the book but throws in great stories from his law days. 4 100 question tests that are pretty tough, but manageable. Go to class, you'll learn a lot.
4 online tests, 100 questions each, usually a week to complete each one and you can do 10 questionsday if you want to and exit out. Easy tests. Lectures are long and just plain lectures of him speaking, no PPTs, videos, or anything. He is interesting to listen to and has a lot of real-life stories that can be humorous. He's very nice!
His tests are online, open-note, and he emails you the notes. He does expect you to show up "most of the time" (what it says in the syllabus), or he'll take points off your tests. In other words, show up most of the time (you don't even have to pay attention), sign the attendance sheet, and you'd have to be stupid not to get an A. Take him.
Easy teacher. He likes to ramble on once you get him going about law. You lose focus but he's interesting. No homework, go to class most of the time and you'll pass.
Good class. Professor gives real life examples of everything he talks about. Tests are all online and open notes. Easy class.
This was by far one of the easiest professors I have had in college. His lectures can be hard to get through, but they are not mandatory. He always posts his notes on D2L when he's done going over the chapter in class. Only four tests throughout the semester and all are taken online and fairly easy. I definitely recommend taking him.
Four online tests that are not too difficult. I had an evening class and it was a drag. Lectures can be boring, but overall, this class was an easy A. I would recommend him.
Wilkinson is the best! He hands out extra points like it's candy. I really enjoyed this class and the tests were open book and online. The final wasn't a conventional final but instead was a debate. We formed teams and had to debate a topic with another team. This is the second time I've taken him and made A's both times. Attendance IS mandatory.
I loved Prof. Wilkinson! Boring lectures but he tried to make them fun. You have to have the book to pass. Don't bother with notes, the tests only cover the book. Tests were easy, open note and online. Plus on average 5 days to complete them. And usually no class on test day!
He has pretty interesting lectures, and is really interested in what he teaches. Probably the easiest A I have had in my college career.
3 take home exam! not easy but not super difficult when you take class :)
Take him!!! He is a super awesome guy that knows his material very well and genuinely cares about his students. He does take attendance, but just go to class. There are four tests (all online and open-book/open-notes) so they aren't bad. Gives real life examples in his lectures that are interesting. Definitely recommend.
All of the tests were administered online and outlines of his lectures were posted on D2L. His lectures consist of him just talking about cases he's worked on that are consistent to what you are learning. He is awesome and has so many experiences to share with you.
Easy class. He puts his power points online once the test is near. The test are online and easy. Does take attendance. Nice guy.
Awesome professor ! He's hilarious and very down to earth. He incorporates personal stories into his lectures, making Business Law fun. He does take attendance. All tests are online and open book, open notes. Easy A! You'll love him!
Dr. Wilkinson is a really caring professor! He will make sure that you fully understand the material and will answer any questions you might have. The tests are fairly easy. The textbook is a must!
Attendance is required but his lectures are mostly interesting stories from his history as a lawyer. Very funny guy who genuinely cares about the success of his students. All tests are online with no lockdown browser and answers (sometimes entire tests) are on Quizlet. I would definitely recommend him.
Professor W was a great BLAW teacher. He definitely has a lot of length lectures but he likes to crack jokes as well. Most exams are online and he is pretty generous with grading. The only tough aspect of class was mandatory attendance.
despite slightly looking like a walrus, this guy is great...
Easy class. Online tests are very hard but can be done (open notes). Attendance is required.
You get three test which are super easy! They are all take home. Two papers but super easy. He is a great professor! Interesting class not to very boring and talks about his own cases to make it enjoyable.
All exams are online. 100 questions, 1 point each. Class is boring but he's such an easy A. Attendance is only mandatory if he notices no one is going.
Boring lectures, but an easy going professor. Tests are online, long and open notes, nothing to seriously worry about.
Cancels class a lot because he is a lawyer, and has many cases throughout the school year. Tests are all online and super easy. Gives extra credit essays. Attendance is 1/5 of your grade, so just show up and sit there for an hour and you'll get an A.
Class consisted of 4 tests and attendance. Each test is 20%, all were online and not on lockdown browser. Only reason to go to class is the attendance sheet, which he starts passing around halfway through the class. Overall easy A if you show up and do the tests in a timely manner. Can get up to 120 points on a 500 point scale in extra credit.
Easy professor. Lectures are boring but just show up to the class halfway through to sign the attendance sheet. If you take him at 8am, he's usually late with a new excuse each time. Attendance is worth 20% of your grade. 4 tests online worth 20% each. No lockdown browser and all the answers are on quizlet. Very easy A.
Wonderful professor with interesting stories! He made the class interesting while still presenting the material in a way that was easy to follow. He grades on 3-4 open note, online tests and counts attendance, but there were A LOT of extra credit points available. Take B. Law from Professor Wilkinson!!
Love this guy. Wonderful personality and makes the class easy. I am a BLAW minor so this was very convenient for me. He has 3 online tests which most answers are on quizlets and those are basically all the grades.
His class was easy. All the test answers are online and he keeps the test open for 5 days which helps if you work. He takes attendance every class. Proffersor gives good feedback if you have any law questions. He wants everyone to do well.
The best professor. His lectures are good.
Professor Wilkinson was such a kind professor. There were 4 exams, 100 multiple choice which seems like a lot but they are all online with unlimited time to take them, 2 tries, and extra credit essays. Using the book and quizlet for the exams helps a lot. Attendance is mandatory but he cancels a lot due to his busy schedule as an attorney
Professor Wilkinson is really sweet and his tests are pretty easy. Make sure to go to class because attendance counts for a grade. The only negative I have to say is that the tests are REALLY long.
Nothing but lectures, 4 tests online with extra credit essays. Attendance is also graded and is worth 1/5 of the class. Really easy, I didn't even get the book and got a 110% in the class.
I loved this professor. Definitely a gem. Caring and lenient if you communicate with him. All 4 test are online with a chance of extra credit for each one. Impossible to get less than a B. Only cons are the lengthy 100 question exams and he's a tad bit on the heavy lecture side but he slides some humor in. Attendance is mandatory but not crucial.
This is probably my favorite professor that I've taken here at KSU. He is super funny and made the class fun. He's very chill and easily accessible outside of class while being very understanding.
Funny guy. Easy class and gives so much extra credit on each test
Professor Wilkinson is an EASY professor. He's a lawyer, but super relaxed and didn't even give us a test. Grade was entirely attendance. He will remember your name and make you feel welcome, but if you want to learn something, don't bother taking him. I learned nothing and neither did anyone else. Overall a fun guy you'd want to have a beer with.
I am a senior and I needed to fill a business elective class since I didn't do an internship. I wanted to take something to lighten my course load. Professor Wilkinson is hilarious and genuinely brightens my day. Attendance is mandatory. Tests are multiple-choice, online, open note, open book. Grades are determined by only attendance and two tests
Easily the most understanding and accommodating professor for BLAW. Take him no matter the time slot because he gives a total of 30 extra potential points for each test (making 120!!) in a 500pt class!! (4 tests and attendance 100 pts each) Tests are open note with multiple days open as he understands the "working adult and college" life.. EASY A!!
one of the first professors I have had at KSU who truly cares about his students and their success I would take professor Wilkinson class 100 more times you go into his class and you leave feeling like for once in your life you have gotten something useful out of class that can help you in life.
He is a great guy with some interesting stories about his lawyering. 4 tests, all 100 points+30 extra points possible on essay questions, making it a possible 130 points for each test. Then, attendance is 100 points. you can not show up and do excellent on the tests, but it is a safe bet to come to class, raise your hand once, and be golden. Take.
You only have 4 tests for the semester which are all online with no lockdown browser. All the test answers can be found directly in the textbook. Plus, he gives 30 points extra credit for each test if you do the short essays. This class is an easy A, no other assignments just the test. Definitely take him if you get the chance. He is a nice guy.
I needed an elective outside my major to finish up my degree and came across negotiations. Prof. Wilkinson is enthusiastic about his teachings and genuinely wants everyone to succeed. His lectures are interesting and filled with real life stories. One of the only classes at KSU where I felt I left with an actual skill. Good class/prof. to take!
Took Prof Wilkinson for BLAW 4300 to finish my degree and wish I had the chance to take more of his classes. Interesting material, easy tests, he likes when you show up to class online. Did not even use the textbook once! 10/10 Would take again.
Theres literally hundred questions on a test!! So, I recommend not taking him!
I dont why his test are 100 questions, but you need to study from the book because he uses lockdown and webcam.
Extremely nice guy. If you show up to class and participate, you will pass with flying colors. He is not a fan of people skipping class though and will have the class do a pop-essay for credit if people are skipping. If you don't have a problem making it to class, definitely take him! Not to mention you'll leave having learned a valuable skill!
I recommend this professor, if you want any easy A and learn new material about business law.
This class is serious lecture heavy, but its still easy A!
Grade made up of 4 tests & attendance, 100 pts each for a total of 500 pts. He builds extra cred into each test in the form of 3 essay questions that are optional worth 10 pts each. 5 days to complete exams, could exit and finish later, and were open book with no lockdown. With the EC and attendance, ended with 105%. Take his class, he's great!
4 tests 100 questions each worth 100 points. That's it no homework or quizzes. The tests are open book open notes. He also gives optional essay questions that are worth up to 30 points each after each test. Attendance is mandatory and part of your grade but besides that great class. Super easy
Goat Professor. Take him if you can.
Apparently this was his first online class. I was not impressed. The syllabus was non-existent for two weeks and then kept changing. He made all the grades tests only and it was over multiple chapters. I eventually lost interest in the material and it seemed like he didn't care. I wished he had someone helping him with it the technology side.
He has 4 tests worth 100 points each, plus 4 extra credit essays worth 30 points each. Attendance is worth 20% of your grade which is the downside to this class. He is very nice and offers real world examples in his lectures. Exams are not on lockdown browser, and you do not have to complete the test in one session. Definitely take him for BLAW.
Really funny guy that made BLAW so much more manageable. Four 100 question tests with extra credit for essay questions. Attendance was mandatory with sign in sheet, which I felt was unnecessary because lectures are online, but I do understand since there is so much content to get through. Apparently he gives pop quizzes when class doesn't show up.
If you take this guy it'll be the easiest A you've ever gotten and for BLAW come on now take this guy. His class is only attendance and 4 tests. All of the test are not lockdown and have three extra credit essay questions. No homework, no quizzes, only the tests. Super nice guy and made lecture enjoyable.
I took him in Fall 2021, but I ran into him on campus recently. He is really kind. He tells stories in a very interesting way and is not as pretentious as some law profs I've had before. He will do the occasional pop quiz or paragraph if he thinks you're not paying attention. Otherwise, lovely. Wish I could take his classes again.
He is a great teacher. His lectures are helpful and fun, and he is very knowledgeable. He is a great guy but I wish he had someone to help him with the technology side of things. He rarely answers his emails & it is kind of frustrating because you will not know your grade until after the semester is over. 4 tests, each 100 questions, and open-note.
Has a great personality, and is funny. Very lecture heavy. 4 tests online no lockdown. He does NOT respond to emails, and is slow with giving out grades so you have to kinda guess what grade you got. Has extra credit essay questions per test. Tests are 100 questions, but you have week to complete it.
This professor is so freaking awesome, if you have the chance to get into his class, TAKE IT!! Very lecture heavy, but if you participate the class will really liven up and become a lot of fun. I also found the material to be super informative. Tests are 100 questions, no lockdown, and open for a few days. Seriously no complaints. Hes the GOAT.
He's very chill and the class is easy. His tests are open for 4 days online, and you can start and finish on your own time, meaning you don't have to finish it in one sitting. He also provides short essay questions that can add up to 30 points of bonus to your test. Downside is mandatory attendance, but he's funny and it's worth the easy A.
Graded by 4 tests and attendance. Each test is open note and has a 100 questions most of the answers are in the textbook. If you come to class for attendance you'll pass with an A. He is a good blaw professor and does not make the class hard. There are also extra credit opportunities with each test.
Professor Wilkinson is one of the best professors I have ever had. He is very kind, knowledgeable, and makes content that might be a little boring super interesting. His tests are open note, open book, and open for a week. In addition, you can get 30 points extra credit on each one. I would recommend him to anyone looking to take this class.
I love Professor Wilkinson! He is extremely knowledgeable about everything discussed in class. Attendance is mandatory. You will only be graded on four tests (no lockdown browser), your attendance grade, and a few optional extra credit essays you can do to boost your grade. Overall, great class! I would totally recommend this professor.
The best professor I have ever had. 4 tests only (no lockdown browser). 30 extra credit points for each test which consists of 3 questions (need like 8 sentences). Attendance is mandatory. That's the only downside. Please do not sign your name and leave the class he is a sweet guy and tries to make the lecture interesting! Take him!
Professor Wilkinson is THE BEST! He is extremely sweet, caring, and funny. He knows the material is boring and tries to make it fun as much as possible. Mandatory attendance, so make sure you go to class! Four tests, all of them online, extra three questions on every test and no lockdown browser. TAKE HIM! HE IS THE BEST!
