Reviews of professor Nancy Cantalupo

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
She lets you have your computer out to work on your outline but it doesnt help. She is very dull and is not willing to explain the material or help at all in office hours. She allows an outline for the exams but it doesnt help when she doesnt tell you what she wants and takes off points for things that have never been talked about in class.

We primarily discuss the cases in class. Property was slow, but that's bc it's a 1L course & she would do a review every class. Criminal Pro was much more fast paced. You can use your outline in the final. So read the cases, make a solid outline & you will succeed in her class. *But if you're not a self learner, I wouldn't recommend.

Her class was way harder than it needed to be. She had us turn in a brief for every case we read, mark it up during class, and then submit it again marked up by the same day at 5. If any of these steps were not done for all the cases, points would be lost. The final was only 1 really long and difficult to read question with a tiny 2000 word limit.

She cold call on students, and then make them feel bad if they don't know the answer. She is very slow, you can listen to her with 1.75 speed if the lecture recorded, and it will sound like a normal lecture. She does not respect the student that is on call, if you don't know the answer, don't expect a hint.

Avoid at all costs. Ruined criminal law for me. Teaches like an undergrad class, makes us submit case briefs for each case we read, MARK IT UP during class, &resubmit the same night. Polices notes. Final was one question (2000 WORD LIMIT; I spent the last 20 minutes deleting words all bc she is lazy) question was hard to read and didnt make sense.
