Professor Mink is by far the best professor I have had at George Mason University. He genuinely cares about every student in all of his classes, and always makes an effort to learn names regardless of class size. Lots of groups which is good, I'm still friends with many teammates. If you want to succeed, he'll give you every possible opportunity.

Genuinely cares about the students. His lectures are long but he does a good job covering the material and is interactive, exams are 50 Q's all multiple choice, the sample problems he goes over end up being on the exam. You have 2 writing projects that you get to revise with your group and literally everyone ends up with a way better grade.

Professor Mink is a wealth of knowledge & I encourage you all to take a class with him, especially if you are interested in pre-law. He is one of the kindest professors at GMU who wants to see you succeed and helps you in achieving that through the projects that he assigns. He is very understanding and helps people get out of their shell!

If you're interested in law TAKE THIS CLASS! Prof Mink is a wealth of information and he genuinely cares about his students. The class has a very loose structure which was nice for discussions/participation. Taking this class has helped my writing so much, and has completely changed how approach writing. Mink is a great resource to know at Mason.

I took legal writing & my writing has improved so much. Legal writing is different because it teaches you to be more concise. The way the class is designed is through the following: Law school personal statement, a hypothetical case that you argue for, case study, debate, & appellate brief. Throughout the semester, you will be working in teams.

he gives sample exam questions that are very helpful. and the exams are not hard if you know where to look and if you have good notes because its an open notes/lockdown exam. for the writing assignmnet, its team work but you must have a good group and he's not a lenient grader on the paper.

If you don't pay attention to his lectures, read the textbook outside class, and take notes, you WILL struggle. Lots of cold calls, make sure you know your stuff and are prepared to answer random questions. Exams were a little hard but thankfully they were open-note and he curved them. Prof. Mink is one of the best for this course, 10/10 take him!

He is the probably still the best professor out of all the other BULE professors, however tests were somewhat confusing and curves were not helpful at all. Additionally, his class lectures basically consist of him reading off of a textbook for 3 hours. If you don't have an interest in law, be prepared to hate this class.
