Like of many law profs, I'm scrambling to get ready for the new semester. I'm scrambling a bit more than usual because I'm following the lead of my friend Jayne Barnard and switching casebooks. Jayne does this every 2 years (!). I've taught Corporations from the O'Kelley & Thompson casebook ever since 2005. I love the O'Kelley Thompson casebook, but I've had the feeling, particularly the last year or two, that things were getting kind of stale. Maybe it was time for a change?
So I bit the bullet and this year I'm trying Klein, Ramseyer, & Bainbridge's casebook. I feel a bit like a contortionist, having spent a few days trying to twist my syllabus in order to cover what I want in the order I'd like. But it's been tremendously liberating to start from near scratch. I'm covering some completely different topics because--well, why not?
And let's face it, reading business organizations cases is fun.
