Teaching Rights Of Publicity: Blending Copyright And Trademark, Common Law And Statutes, And Domestic And Foreign Law, David Welkowitz, Tyler Ochoa

Faculty Publications

The purpose of this Article is to explain why we believe that rights of publicity should be taught as a stand-alone course, why we believe that a course in comparative rights of publicity is worthwhile as a stand-alone course, and to explain some of the challenges and opportunities that the course presents. Ultimately, we hope to encourage and persuade more of our colleagues at other schools to begin to offer rights of publicity as a separate course.
