Detroit to offer marketing course; will other institutions follow suit?

Article Abstract:

Julie Savarino, director of Business Development Inc, a Detroit-based marketing firm, will teach a client development course at the University of Detroit School of Law. The course will be offered for the first time during the Summer 1992 term. The course will be taught during the summer because of Dean Bernard Dobranski's mixed feelings about including a marketing-oriented course in the curriculum. He says he is bearing in mind the differences of opinion between professors who want an academically oriented curriculum and practitioners who want to give students more practical experience.

Doctors find that legal degree can be just the right prescription

Article Abstract:

Combined legal-medical degree programs contribute to the growth in numbers of the 2,000 doctor-lawyers in the US. Most have long been interested in medicine but in college developed an interest in other areas that led to law school. Some have practiced for years, and decided to attend law school out of curiosity or to be involved in policy issues and medical ethics problems. Duke University established the first law-medicine combined program in 1972, but Southern Illinois University's six-year program is considered the best-integrated.

Chicago-Kent professor teaches the first no-book legal course

Article Abstract:

Some law school professors are leaving textbooks behind and teaching computer-based law school courses. One example is Ronald W. Staudt's computer law course at the Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago-Kent College of Law. Peter W. Martin of the Cornell Law School is providing statutory supplements to students by computer. Martin feels that a complete switch from paper textbooks to computers will be slow to come, however.
