Very good teacher. But she is hard. If you really want to learn law then I recommend you take her. If you want an easy A, she's the wrong teacher to chose.

Do your homework and you'll be ok.

This lady is terribly hard. She intimidates you when you enter the class. You really have to work and read the book for her class. Don't take her unless you have an extra hour per day to read the book.

She was pretty nice to us, helpful although reading the book in her class makes all the difference. TIP: Look at exceptions in the book not the rule this will usualy be what she will use to determine an answer and write a lot.

This professor is a good teacher BUT SHE IS A VERY UNFAIR GRADER! I worked hard to get a B+ in the class for A- or A style of work. She is fine as a teacher, just very tough when it comes to marking the tests. No point in taking a professor who kills GPA

NOT AN EASY A! Do not take this class with this professor simply because you can take someone else and do better. She marks really strictly so chances of getting an A are slim to none. But as a teacher she's good, still find a better prof for Law 1101.

Don't beleive those earlier comments. If you're interested in the subject and willing to do some work the class will be very rewarding. AND: she is a good teacher, clear and helpful..if a person has learning disabilities a teacher cannot help it.

If you're in school to learn, take Prof. W. And pay the extra money for her supplement -- if you learn what's in it, you will absolutely earn your A. Keep up with the homework and readings and she'll fill in the blanks. Good teacher.

not a lot of work, reading is very little, and she explains everything( REALLY WELL) the next class....exams are not badd as long as you have a basic understanding of the concepts.

Very good professor but VERY hard grader.. its sooooo hard to do well on her tests.. and I also definetly recommend buying her supplement - thats essentially what she teaches from and looks for on her tests... NOT an easy A.

If you want an easy A dont take her but if you want to learn i would completely reccomend it. Shes not easy but shes a very good teacher. Her grading is not unfair but she doesnt give points away. I enjoyed the class it was really that bad.

good teacher, but got to study.. not an easy class

Very good professor. However, her exams are hard. If you really want to learn law, then take her.

one of the best professors at Baruch!If u are not lazy & scared and u actually want to learn TAKE WALTER! shes so clear and if u dont understand she will keep explaining it until you do. shes very helpful and caring-keep up w/the readin n u should be fine

really tuff class. U learn a lot coz she teaches well but her test are jez too hard. And she's a hard grader. If u wanna do well in this class u have to PARTICIPATE!!!!! da class is not boring coz u learn some pretty interesting

She very clear and sharp on her lecture. Her tests are hard, but you do learn lots lots. Good preparation for future law classes.

This is a hard class. Tests are hard, there's a lot of reading, and you have to participate (or she'll pick on you). The good thing that you'll actually learn something and she's great at explaining things.

She is a good teacher. When she explains the text you undersatnd everything.

she is an extraordinary human being. very smart and knowledgable.Her exams are Hard but very fair.Nothing she doesnt teach appears there.Yes she grades hard I admit. I did Ok in her class. You will learn so much though

The best professor ever. I learned so much in her class and she explained everything so good. She is not hard if you come to every class and do the homework. Also buy the book that she wrote because it is very helpful for the exams.

Good teacher, not a lot of work at all! Just read for every class then in class all u do is go over what we read and do the problems then we leave. 2 midterms and a final and the midterms are really just tests.. Easy grader

if you take this class in the summer,it's hard to follow and understand. Nice teacher, tries to explain all aspects of the laws, but tests are hard, and I didn't catch on until the 4th week. When it was too late. Messed up my GPA, thought it would be an easy A. I got a C.

This professor was a pain but I did good and last time I took this class I failed. Homework is annoying but it helps. I did not like the way she called on people to answer the homework questions. If you take her don't come later than her cause she will lock you out and not let you into the class.

She is concise, always explains law concepts with clarity, picks up the right problems to do from the book [similar appear on her two midterms,4 jugment-essays ;P], & is always willing to answer if student has a problem. Prepares well for the dep final. Take her if you want to really learn some law.

You have to do the home assignment and ask questions if something is unclear for you and you will be fine. Do not try to catch it up before exam. Good teacher.

I gave up reading for my other classes to make it in this one. Insider tips: buy her supplement book and use it. Exam questions are similar to those assigned in class - easy if you start doing homework from day one + Participate in class. You'll get an A. Great teacher. Loved her glasses & purses.

She is a good professor. Very clear in explaining law concepts. Kind grader. Pay attention in class to the law concepts and you'll be fine. Exams are a little tough but not impossible to get an A

Very good at making law easy to understand. Buy her book and read everything until you understand it perfectly. Include legal terms in answers and participate.

this teacher knows her stuff...she is def easy...just do hwk..participate..alot...and ask questions..she'll answer them

Great professor. Loved the "handbags" examples. KNOWS-her-STUFF. The readings r EASY + all you have to do is the h.w. & you'll do great on the midterms. Use legal terminolgy on them--it helps; Just SHOW that u know the material. She is funny and makes the class go by 2 quick. Fair. I recommend her 100% and id love 2 take another class of hers.

Very clear on what is on the exams. I would not buy her book if you can read the textbook that is required and pay attention in class. However, the book makes it clearer if your english is not that good. She is a tough grader but it is understandable since in law every little detail is crucial. Attendance is not that important to her. Dont be late!

*WARNING* DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS IN THE SUMMER!!! Professor Walter is probably easier taken in the regular semesters. She is hard in the summer. Everything is crammed in and she does not review in the summer classes.

She makes the course seem really easy. She is able to clear up everything and answer all your questions. She makes this class really interesting, and I enjoy going to class. She's one of the best professors I have met. The only thing I have problem with is the handbag example she gives. She used it too many times, and it got really boring.

She is a very nice professors. She could explain really well. However, the readings are difficult and the exams are extremely hard.

She explains the material very clear, but if you consider taking summer class,be prepared to study every day.The pace is very fast and textbook is quiet complicated.Tests are relatively easy,you get partial credit.She's almost always late at least 5 min and let people go early.

very good professor. explains the material really well. her voice sounds like janice from friends [very high pitched & nasal voice], but if you can tolerate that go ahead. there's two midterms. i reccommend getting her book for reference. helped me out a lot. she mainly goes over the problems and cases she assigns, so do them in order to understand

Professor Walter is amazing! Never got bored in her class even once. Nice and sweet, excellent teacher, and cute clothes!

She explains material clearly and she goes over the questions that she assigns. Make sure you prepare for the questions coz she will call on you anytime but not often. I recommend that you buy the reference book written by her because it is very easy to understand and it is like a summary which saves you a lot of time to revise during exam!!!

Expect to do the reading for each session that Prof. Walter assigns for each class if you want to keep up with every law concept. She summarizes the readings and is very helpful in explaining things if you don't understand something. Each class involves case studies and short questions, which is fairly easy. She gave us 1 midterm for this semester.

She's a very nice teacher and she really does know her material well. I would say she was one of the best professors I had. LAW in general is pretty hard, but she makes the class interesting. You really need to read the material, that way you can pass the class with a high grade.

Knows her stuff and teaches in a way that makes you understand the material(the textbook will make you want to cry). However, there is A LOT of material and the department final and her midterm are hard. She always let us out early. Probably won't get an A in law (no matter who you take) but at least you'll learn in her class and enjoy it.

She is a great professor that really knows her stuff. Law isn't an easy subject and this isn't an easy class especially since she treats you like a lawyer (she never underestimates you or what you know) . Professor Walter is fair and treats you like an intellectual on an equivolant level. You may not get a perfect A in her class but you'll do surpr

This class is tough but this is the best professor for this class. You wont understand the work when you do the homework, but you will in class. Sucks that its only a midterm and final but gives a lot of partial credit if you clearly explain your reasoning. She does pick you randomly to answer the homework questions but take her, if you want to lea

"That's why there are lawyers who make the big bucks and those that don't" funny prof and very savvy on the material

Excellent professor. Teaches very well, and knows her material. Textbook use is very heavy, so do not fall behind or you'll be in big trouble. Only downside is grading, final grade is 50% midterm/50% final, but hey it's just one of those classes. Clear helpful explanations on her behalf. Would definitely recommend. Made me love the subject of law.

I recommend this class to anyone majoring in Law. The readings might seem difficult but professor Walter makes the subject easy to understand. Knows what she is talking about and has a good sense of humor too! Just don't show up late.

BEST TEACHER FOR LAW!!!! She was so helpful and so cute. Not that easy, but you definitely learn. Need to use the textbook. Only a midterm and final. The final is cummulative.

She is a great teacher! must read textbook for the hw assignments! This would have helped me in getting a great grade on the midterm. She explains everything with clarity and gives hypothetical examples. Only a midterm and a final(departmental)

her nasal voice reminds me of Janice from "Friends." explain things clearly.keeps the class interesting. fair grader to be honest. BUT SHE NEVER LETS U SPEAK...ALWAYS INTERRUPTS YOU. but shes sweet =)

i took her class last semester. only midterm and final. i studied like crazy and still only got b- :( she does not give out A's easily. my friends took someone else and they got A/A-'s!

Material in class is heavily based on textbook use. She does her best to help us learn the material. She may seem mean and intimidating, but she is a very lenient grader!

really good teacher. def buy her supplement book - i wouldn't have passed without it. it explains everything really simply. she's a tough grader, but its worth it because you learn a lot. but yeah, def buy her book "business contracts law" - paula g. walter

wonderful professor. textbook is extremely useful. she explained cases in details. even she didnot easily give As out, her lecture made me enjoy analyzing case problems.

got a-. take another teacher and get the a. yeah, u do learn but how much will u retain in long term. get the easy grade with some other teacher.

good teacher, but other teachers may be easier when it comes to grading. if you take this class, make sure you buy her book in addition to the textbook. it makes things very clear and easy to understand. 1 midterm (4 questions). 1 final (8 questions). the questions are predictable and she tells you which subjects are going to be on the tests.

If you want to learn law - take her. She is a very smart and tough lady but if you listen carefully to her examples in class and read the book like 3 times - you'll get a good grade. Missing even one class will put you behind a lot! Hard class for the summer session but doable.

Honestly, the most useful class I've taken at Baruch. This professor is very knowledgeable, and engaging. Feels like a class out of a film, not an easy A. But if you listen in class, and thing logically, it's an easy A-.

attendance is a must. midterm & final. her midterm was for some reason a little more challenging then the final. She emails, and she's always there to help. Take her for an A-

I thought I did not get the grade I deserved for the class. I did well on her midterm and well on the group project and final and still ended up with a B-. Other than that, she is very intelligent and thorough with her lectures. She gives a lot of homework and uses the textbook everyday.

Class attention is a must. She takes attendance every time. She is very nice and her explanation is very clear cut. the text-book is somehow not so good But it is helpful. 1 midterm and 1 department final. If you come to every class, you will do well and get good grade. Take her.

Very clear professor. She may seem very intimidating at first but she is actually pretty engaging. She encourages a healthy learning environment and explains everything. Pay attention, attend class and read the textbook because it is very helpful. The department final would be easy based on what can be learned from class experience.

Had a bad first impression at first but she was actually a great professor. She's clear and never wastes time. The textbook is a bit bland to read which is why I recommend her contracts book it's literally all her lectures so its very easy to read. And we were out at least 15 minutes early every class.

GREAT Professor. Knows her stuff. Fair grader. Will coach you on what to expect for Dept Final. Online Hws. Expects participation. Do it! It helps. Mandatory Attendance. Gets upset at lateness. Interrupts students at times. LOTS of reading, but it HELPS for class. 50% Final, 30% Midterm. 10% online Hw. 10% partc. Got an A. TAKE HER!!

She definitely knows her subject and is always happy to help. Expects A LOT of class participation and rightfully so, you learn easier that way. Always bring your textbook to class. Quizzes are a joke and the tests are easy, as long as you pay attention.

Great professor! She knows her stuff really well. Explains in a crystal clear fashion and makes sure you understand. no presentations, just weekly readings and memorizing. Take her!!

She is a pretty good teacher and teaches very well. She makes things very easy to understand and interesting also. The only downside to her class is that she is a strict grader. She is a harsh grader and won't give you too high of a score. But i learned alot in her class. One midterm, one dept final and read the textbook.she calls on people to read

She is very knowledge about the subject and I learned a lot from the class. You will need to participate in class and do online quizes to get a decent grade. However, she is not very clear about what she want on the tests.

Great professor, really nice and very interesting class. Made me like law. If you read the book and do the problems and cases you can well!

Excellent professor, this is by no means an easy A you obviously have to do the work but she makes sure that you're ready for the final and she is really nice just don't come late and don't act a fool. Take my advice if you want a good professor who teaches you the subject instead of goofs off or makes it hard then take her. P.S read!! trust me

Professor Walter is a fantastic teacher. She is very clear in her explanations during class, and kind and friendly outside of class too. You need to go to every class or you'll get lost quickly. Take good notes and stay on top of the reading. Be prepared to read out loud in class and do the case problems assigned. Not easy but very fair - take her!

Professor Walter is an amazing professor! She explains the subject extremely well, and will take any questions. She looks a little intimidating, but she is very sweet. I really enjoyed her class. She is a very fair grader and prepares you very well for the exams. I highly recommend her !!

She explains the material very clear and throughs all the time examples from real life. Be prepared for every class, read the book and you will be fine. It was a very interesting and useful class. Take this Professor!

One of the best - if not THE best - professors I've ever had. Quirky and funny, and very clear with the material. She knows her stuff and really engages you to learn. I am a Communications major, and I loved this class. She is an amazing professor, I can't recommend her enough. Textbook required, but I got away with minimal reading - just an FYI.

She knows her stuff and wants to make sure you know it too. She is a great teacher who tries really hard to make sure you understand the material. That being said, you still have to put the work in. Do the readings and ESPECIALLY listen closely in class. She goes over everything you need to know for the exams. Overall, a very helpful, good teacher.

She's great! Almost finished with the course and I have a much better understanding and appreciation for law. Just read the textbook and take notes, she's a very fair grader and loves participation. Make sure you listen to her questions before you answer them, she's very precise with her expectations on answers. LOVE HER CLASS!

Intimidating at first, but she is pretty sweet, and if you do the right thing, you shouldn't have an issue. Explains the material very well in a short amount of time. Uses the textbook a lot, so have the assigned questions and cases prepared for every class since she goes up and down the rows for each student to do a question.

I thought she would be a tough professor but she was actually pretty good, the textbook is a major key, make sure you do the cases assigned because there will be similar problems on your midterm and final, DO NOT BE LATE TO CLASS, thats the only time you'll start to see her get upset, all in all she's a good professor and its good to take her

Simply an amazing professor. Gives a fair amount of homework but the midterm and final are what matter most. She covers the material extensively in class and does an amazing job explaining everything, so just pay attention and you'll be good. Participation matters. Loved her style as well. TAKE HER!

Professor Walter is absolutely great! She is someone who knows their law. What I like most about her, besides her knowledge, is her sense of humor.

Professor Walter is absolutely great! She is someone who knows their law. What I like most about her, besides her knowledge, is her sense of humor. She could be intimidating- but if you get on her good side, she's very sweet. Her biggest pet peeve is lateness. She makes it her business to be on time-- even though she comes late sometimes..

She is sweet, but she is tough. Clear on what she grades. Two exams with barely any homework. Her midterm mimics the format of the final so she is helpful. Fun class, minimal work, but you will learn.

Professor Walter is simply awesome! She really knows her stuff, is willing to answer any questions you may have, and keeps things clear. The material is filled with exceptions and irregularities, and Prof. Walter really makes them clear and easy to understand. I studied not to do well on the tests, but to understand and learn the material.

The course was really interesting, but she just expected a little too much out of us in this Macaulay seminar. Multiple papers due on the same day and not automatic As were the roughest parts. She is incredibly smart though and taught the class really well. I did end up with an A, but it was a close call. Still would take again

Professor Walter is a very knowledgable woman, and she knows a lot about just any topic. She explains everything in detail until everyone understands, but she is a tough grader. It was her first time teaching the course, so she was definitely still trying to figure everything out. I would love to take a course with her in the future!

She is a great professor. Explains every detail thoroughly and repeatedly to make sure you understand every thing. She required us to take the actual textbook to class everyday, luckily it is not too heavy. Online hw and textbook hw. But what really matters for your grade is the midterm and the final. The textbook is key to passing this class!!!

She's one of the best professors here at Baruch in my opinion. She tells you what she expects from the jump. Your textbook and your syllabus is referred to as your bible. Always have it on you; it really helps. Lots of reading and short answer question. Midterm looks exactly like the Finals. Always use legal terms on both exams

Honestly if you pay attention to how she words answers to the problems in class and do the same thing on the midterm and final, it's an easy B if you're mediocre and following along. Grading is clear, textbook is a must, makes you participate. Overall Solid Professor.

This is a class you need to take seriously. One midterm and a final. Tests are cumulative so keep notes. Make sure to do case briefs and problems she gives.

Despite that the class was a large lecture-style class, she demands participation. She is a TOUGH grader on the exams, know all legal terms! You must read ALL of the material before class or she WILL know, and she will call you out. Also - she does not allow students to enter that arrive more than a few minutes late. Pros: she knows her stuff.

This seminar is focused on health law. Three 5-7 page papers. One group project: 10 minute presentation with 4 group mates plus a 10-15 page paper. A couple short blog posts. Weekly readings consisting of court cases, NY times, and wall street journal articles. Prof Walter is very knowledgable, you will learn a lot, just be ready to work hard.

Take this class seriously and read the textbook. The key to doing well is showing up to the lectures and taking good notes on what she says AND what the book says. Ask questions, do the homework problems and the case briefs. Study. She will not baby you but it is a class worth taking if you want to learn. You will leave with a lot of knowledge.

Shes very old school.. meaning class consists of of: her speaking, you listening. you dont get a fair chance to speak in her class, she often cuts you off and doesnt let you ask a full question without interrupting. she knows her stuff but she doesnt let anyone get their points across.

Fantastic! Read ahead of time, come to class prepared and participate. No quizzes just exams with a few assignments. The exams were questions about cases and you had to identify which kinds of issues they were. She means business. Don't take her if you aren't serious or don't want to do the work.

Professor Walter is extremely nice, so don't hesitate to communicate with her through email, she's always understanding. Make sure you come to class and participate. She remembers everyone and knows whether you participated or not. Harsh grader and you have to attend her lectures to do good on the midterm and final.

I actually really loved the class. Prof had a lecture-style class and at the end would cold call to go over homework problems. 3 writing assignments that were graded harshly, 1 midterm & final. She was always late to class for someone who wouldn't let us in if we were late. Some stuff can be confusing but if you take notes and listen, you're fine.

Professor Walter's class is rigorous but rewarding. The lectures can be dry, but coming prepared and participating is key. The writing assignments are tough but doable with effort. Unstuck ai was a lifesaver for practice quizzes and study prep.

she isn't bad just don't be late to class cause sometimes she doesn't lets students come in if they're late, all her lecture are straight forward and take notes
