Section 10(B) And The Vagaries Of Federal Common Law: The Merits Of Codifying The Private Cause Of Action Under A Structuralist Approach, Edward A. Fallone Jan 1997

Section 10(B) And The Vagaries Of Federal Common Law: The Merits Of Codifying The Private Cause Of Action Under A Structuralist Approach, Edward A. Fallone

Faculty Publications

Few issues in the field of securities law have proved as controversial as the legitimacy and proper application of the implied private cause of action for securities fraud under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and its regulatory counterpart, Rule 10b-5. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 was expected by many observers to bring about sweeping changes in the implied private cause of action, which critics charge has been abused by overzealous litigants bringing frivolous lawsuits. In his timely article, Professor Fallone argues that most of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act's changes to the …

Subjunctive Lawyering And Other Clinical Extern Paradigms, Kate E. Bloch Jan 1997

Subjunctive Lawyering And Other Clinical Extern Paradigms, Kate E. Bloch

Clinical Law Review

Every decision in legal practice contains an ethics component. Legal education must, therefore, prepare prospective lawyers to recognize and resolve these ethical issues in a principled manner. Because law students who participate in live-client clinical programs become both observers and direct actors in the ethics of legal decisions, the clinical experience provides an intensely motivating and uniquely concrete opportunity to teach and learn legal ethics. Enhancing student perception and understanding of legal ethics represents a nearly universal goal of clinical teachers. The clinician's emphasis, the student's pre-existing ethics consciousness, and the immersion in the immediacy of live lawyering prompt students …


Testing The Grades: Evaluating Grading Models In Clinical Legal Education, Stacy L. Brustin, David F. Chavkin Jan 1997

Testing The Grades: Evaluating Grading Models In Clinical Legal Education, Stacy L. Brustin, David F. Chavkin

Clinical Law Review

In 1994, the JOURNAL OF LEGAL EDUCATION published a survey of grading practices at law schools across the United States. That survey revealed a mix of grading approaches for clinical programs. 31 percent of all clinical courses used a fully-graded model; 33 percent graded students on a pass/fail basis; and 16 percent utilized both graded and pass/fail models. The article did not attempt to evaluate qualitatively the effectiveness of the various grading models. At about the same time that this article was published, clinicians teaching in Columbus Community Legal Services (CCLS) of The Catholic University of America were reconsidering the …

A Field Trip To Benetton ... And Beyond: Some Thoughts On "Outsider Narrative" In A Law School Clinic, Carolyn Grose Jan 1997

A Field Trip To Benetton ... And Beyond: Some Thoughts On "Outsider Narrative" In A Law School Clinic, Carolyn Grose

Clinical Law Review

One of the goals of clinicians as teachers is to train law students to listen to, hear and retell their clients' stories. This task is complicated by the fact that the students - who are for the most part white and middle-class, and by definition college-educated - inhabit a world vastly different from - indeed some might say diametrically opposed to - the world inhabited by the clinic's client population, which generally tends to be poor people with a limited education, and for the most part people of color. Given these differences, students' ability to hear and believe their clients' …


Voicing Differences, Margaret E. Montoya Jan 1997

Voicing Differences, Margaret E. Montoya

Clinical Law Review

Jane Aiken and Kimberly O'Leary undertake the difficult work of developing specific approaches and techniques for taking account of characteristics such as race/ethnicity, gender, dis/ability, and sexual identity in clinical pedagogy. Carolyn Grose uses outsider narratives and popular culture to challenge the "pre-understanding" of students, and to assist them to accept client stories as true and valid. Focusing on the professional value of striving to promote justice, fairness, and morality identified in the MacCrate Report, Professor Aiken exhorts us to promote justice by unmasking privilege, the invisible package of unearned assets- about which I (we? or you?) was "meant" to …


My Summer Vacation: Reflections On Becoming A Critical Lawyer And Teacher, Minna J. Kotkin Jan 1997

My Summer Vacation: Reflections On Becoming A Critical Lawyer And Teacher, Minna J. Kotkin

Clinical Law Review

I've spent my summer "vacation" reading wonderful articles by clinicians, critical legal theorists, and fellow travellers about lawyering and teaching for an anthology I'm editing, entitled Critical Lawyering. Having dumped my caseload on my long suffering colleague, I've had a bit of time to do what I'm always asking of my students, but do so little of myself: reflect upon how to be a better lawyer. Given all of this theory that I supposedly have mastered, have I actually changed the way I do things? What do I do differently? I've concluded that my teaching and lawyering have changed over …

Law And Phrenology, Pierre Schlag Jan 1997

Law And Phrenology, Pierre Schlag

Publications

As the intellectual credentials of American law become increasingly dubious, the question arises: how has this discipline been intellectually organized to sustain belief among its academic practitioners? This Commentary explores the nineteenth-century pseudo-science of phrenology as a way of gaining insight into the intellectual organization of American law. Although there are, obviously, significant differences, the parallels are at once striking and edifying. Both phrenology and law emerged as disciplinary knowledges through attempts to cast them in the form of sciences. In both cases, the "sciences" were aesthetically organized around a fundamental ontology of reifications and animisms -- "faculties" in the …


Culture And Capital In Urban Change: The Constitutive Relationship Between Development Imperatives And Symbolic Values In Singapore's Built Environment, Lily Kong Jan 1997

Culture And Capital In Urban Change: The Constitutive Relationship Between Development Imperatives And Symbolic Values In Singapore's Built Environment, Lily Kong

Research Collection School of Social Sciences

Over the last three decades, Singapore has undergone tremendous urban change. These changes have been premised on the logic and rationality of economic planning, in which development goals have taken precedence over other symbolic values, be they historic, cultural, sacred, personal, social or aesthetic. In recent years, however, there has been tangible evidence that parts of the urban fabric are being retained, a reflection perhaps of increasing appreciation of the cultural and historical values of these built forms. Given this scenario, my intention in this paper is to explore the interconnections between symbolic values in the urban landscape, on the …
