Comment:
This professor expects you to dedicate all of your time to this class. I had more homework in this class than my other 4 classes combined. She will give you a ZERO on an assignment if you are short one sentence in her discussion board. She also gives short deadlines. I will never take a class with her again, I normally enjoy classes....

Great professor. Very enthusiastic about the topic and always has real life examples. Have to study for the tests and must have the textbook for chapter quizzes in which answers are straight from the book.

The quiz each week comes from the text not the class lecture. On the quizzes make sure you spell every thing right or you will get the answer wrong. If you ask for help she is gonna refer you to the graduate assistant she will not help unless you beg her and does not respond to emails consistently.

Prof. Decker was one of the BEST CRIM classes I have taken. My major is theatre and after taking some CJ classes, I decided to minor in CJ. I am loving these classes. Prof. Decker has helped me make that decision.

Lisa Decker is amazing. She is the true definition of a great professor. She's very precise and down to earth. Shes a great help. I have taken several classes with her and I have received an A in all of her classes. Her class requires all of effort as should all classes. You actually have to earn your grade in her class which is a good thing.

This class is no joke. Be ready to work and stick with it the entire semester. The professor is strict but fair and does an excellent job presenting the material. If you pay attention, by the end of the semester you will have a better understanding of basic criminal law concepts than most police officers!

This is first Law section, must attend class or she will start deducting from your grade. Easy online quizzes every week. Test can be very hard unless you put time into studying for them.

Good Sense of humor. Does not like talking during class (but who would).Chapter test come straight from the book word for word. Save your Power Points and use your text Books and the test are not hard. Great professor not a great advisor on the other hand.

Took online class. Tests are fairly easy, however, check your spelling otherwise it will be counted wrong. Tests are open book and research paper was not difficult to write. Does offer powerpoint slides.

She is amazing!!! You learn so much from her, you do have to care and study some, but I really feel like if you go to class and read the book, you won't even have to do a whole lot except review. She will help you if you ask. she has great experience and amazing stores

Comment:
It was extremely hard, but she does a very good job of relaying the information and using examples to clarify what the definitions mean. She puts all of the powerpoints she uses in class online so that you can use them. She also held study sessions to tell us what would be on the exam. I like the way she teaches.

I thought the class was relatively easy. The notes she put on black board was the exact same thing in the book. If you take good notes and study the tests should not be to hard. I found her stories entertaining. Go to class, take notes, and study...U should pass.

She teaches this class the best it can be taught. It is very hard but she makes the content about as clarified as possible. Go to class and this course shouldnt be too overwhelming. I strongly suggest this course if you want to actually learn the material.I learned more in this course than any other

I thought she was a very hard teacher but I learned more from that class than I have learned in all of my college classes. I ended up with a very hard earned B in that class and to me it felt like an A+
