Beyond “Hard” Skills: Teaching Outward- And Inward-Facing Character-Based Skills To 1ls In Light Of Aba Standard 303(B)(3)’S Professional Identity Requirement, Marni Goldstein Caputo, Kathleen Luz

Brooklyn Law Review

Newly adopted American Bar Association Standard 303(b)(3) requires law schools to provide “substantial opportunities to students for . . . the development of professional identity” throughout their three-year legal education. For 1Ls, the ideal place to start this process is in their lawyering skills classrooms, which is our domain at Boston University School of Law. Professional identity exploration necessarily requires students to look inward and outward to reflect upon their own role in the legal system and how they interact with others. In our classrooms, we divide what have been referred to as “soft” skills into two distinct categories—outward-facing and …

Scholarship As Fun, Thomas Schultz

Dalhousie Law Journal

One theme that traverses much of Pierre Schlag’s work is a sense of profound humanity—the idea that thinking and writing about the law can and should be a deeply, genuinely human activity—an activity for which we can, and should, break up many of the barriers that stand between us, between who we really are, and what we think and write. It is an activity for which we should put aside our pretences and insecurities and the attached formalisms and exaggerations behind which we so often hide, and which in the end constrain our humanity so much, as they take on …

Un Ésprit Sérieux, Pierre Schlag

Dalhousie Law Journal

It was a sunny day when we all met in a classroom at McGill University The gathering went on all day and at the end someone proposed writing up the discussion as essays. Hence, this collection.

I’d like to take a moment of gratitude to express heartfelt thanks to all the participants. And especially to Vincent Forray and Jean d’Aspremont for organizing the event, and to Genevieve Renard Painter and Liam McHugh-Russell for bringing this collection over the finish line. I don’t know whether the intellectual generosity of the participants was because of Canada, or Montreal, or McGill, or the …

Parity In Higher Education In Prison Programs: Does It Exist?, Michael Lee Griggs, Vianey Luna

Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations

The expansion of college-in-prison (CIP) programs, especially in California, where incarcerated college enrollment increased from 11,472 students to over 15,000 in two years, has spotlighted higher education for incarcerated individuals. This increase, supported by legislation that expands funding for CIP programs and allows time off sentences for successful course/degree completion, is further bolstered by the restoration of Federal Pell funding for incarcerated students after a 28-year ban. Despite the acknowledged benefits of CIP programs in reducing recidivism and enhancing post-release outcomes, existing research highlights the need for additional exploration into the quality of CIP programs. Senate Bill 416 further emphasizes …

Persistent Identifiers And The Next Generation Of Legal Scholarship, Aaron Retteen, Malikah Hall-Retteen

Faculty Scholarship

This article discusses the importance of the most common persistent identifiers in scholarly communications—the digital object identifier and the ORCID identifier—to legal scholarship. Persistent identifiers help preserve and disseminate academic content and data-driven services that leverage this information standard are now integrated into the publication process. Because legal publishers have not widely adopted persistent identifiers, the legal discipline cannot enjoy the benefits offered by this system. This article looks at barriers to implementing persistent identifiers among legal publishers and provides an anecdotal example of creating a sustainable workflow between the law library and student-run law journals.

Cerveza Cristal: A Copyright Loophole In A Beer Ad From 2003?, Sebastian Saavedra Irarrazaball

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal (AELJ) Blog

The internet stumbled onto a ready-made meme last month in the form of 20-year-old beer commercials from South America1. Back in 2003, a Chilean advertising agency decided to elevate the art of product placement. Their canvas: a planned broadcast of the original trilogy of Star Wars during a primetime slot on the second most popular national channel. DVDs were in their commercial infancy in the country, VHS tapes were available, but not everywhere. There was a guaranteed, captive audience.

Fanfiction Flicks: Dissecting The Expected Legal Ramifications Of Harry Styles Homages On The Big Screen, Aydan Urias

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal (AELJ) Blog

When the trailer for the highly anticipated Amazon Prime film The Idea of You debuted on YouTube in March 2024, viewers were captivated by the striking resemblance between the main character, Hayes Campbell, portrayed by Nicholas Galitzine, and the renowned former British One Direction member, Harry Styles. The film is based on the novel The Idea of You by author Robinne Lee. In a 2017 interview, Lee admitted to beginning the novel after seeing a YouTube video of the boy band One Direction and stated that she was specifically inspired by the personal life of Harry Styles.

The Impact Of The “Misclassification” Of Employees As Independent Contractors On New York City’S Performing Arts Institutions And Gig-Based Performers, Katie Sigety

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal (AELJ) Blog

During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) made it possible for independent contractors to access unemployment benefits, or “Pandemic Unemployment Assistance” (“PUA”), for the first time. This created a new awareness for how many gig-based performing artists were considered independent contractors. In the wake of the PUA program expiration in 2021, the DOL identified 425,000 fraudulent unemployment benefit claims filed, totaling $5.5 billion, during the COVID-19 pandemic. The fraudulent claims were filed using the real identities of individuals who were not employed, which were likely stolen during previous data breaches …

Tennessee Legislature Declares That The Human Voice Will Remain ‘The King’ In Nashville, Ryan Bickett

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal (AELJ) Blog

Last month, Tennessee broke legal ground by passing the Ensuring Likeness Voice and Image Security, or “ELVIS,” Act. This law amends the state’s existing publicity laws to include protections for an individual’s voice in general as well as specifically against artificial intelligence (AI) impersonation. The statute defines a voice as “a sound in a medium that is readily identifiable and attributable to a particular individual, regardless of whether the sound contains the actual voice or a simulation of the voice of the individual.” This standard shows a statutory expansion of legal protections for voices that blossomed with major cases in …
