    Legal education in the United States continues to be closely scrutinized in various markets—e.g., the market for law students, the market for law faculty, the legal employment market, the market for law school funding, and the market of public opinion (although we may question whether some of these alleged markets are, in fact, markets at all).  In response, law schools and their constituents are reviewing, among other things, law school course catalogs, curricula, faculty scholarship standards, and related resource allocations.  In this environment, it seems important to ask some fundamental questions about business associations law in the context of legal education in the United States.  How does business associations teaching and scholarship contribute to the U.S. program of legal education?  How could or should it contribute?  What role does the basic law school course on business associations play in an optimized law school curriculum?  What course content, pedagogy, and teaching tools best support that role?  How does business associations scholarship inform and support that role?

     

    This program seeks to answer these and related questions through a panel discussion that incorporates paper presentations from panelists selected through a call for papers and expert commentary.
