AMAZING CLASS WITH AN AMAZING PROFESSOR! Not only is she currently practicing civil rights law, but almost every person in this class said it was their best at CU so far. It's great for reading landmark Supreme Court cases and getting used to legalese, etc. If you are at all thinking about law school, especially with intent to go into something along the lines of civil rights law, this is a must-take class. I wish she taught more classes here!
Workload:
Reading can be really heavy (Supreme Court cases) but it's easier once you get used to it; in-class midterm; letter to your representative; attending a community event, final project (incl a 10 page paper). All well worth it! This class makes you want to work!
