The other guy teaching that class is the head of the public defender's office for Oklahoma County.
I actually prefer adjuncts. Not only are they good teachers, they're great people to know if you have to find a job after school.

True; I've had adjuncts for my practicum courses (negotiation, etc.) who practice at the larger firms in the area or work for the state, and I know they teach the trial courses here as well. I have nothing against them, the ones I've had have been very good, but I know that at some schools the adjuncts are overworked in their daily practice and don't have a whole lot of time/energy when it gets to the evening classes
