Academic

Last year we introduced a new feature at this blog called the Masters Forum, in which we invited a regular roster of law professors to comment on breaking issues such as the Jones v. Harris case in the Supreme Court and the passage of the Dodd-Frank Act, as well as on important issues in legal education after the financial crisis.

This year we will continue the program and follow last year's impressive roster of professors with a new group of experts.  Here is our roster for the 2010-11 academic year: ?Jayne W. Barnard (William & Mary); Chris Brummer (Georgetown); Deborah A. Demott (Duke); David A. Hoffman (Temple); Thomas W. Joo (University of California ? Davis); Sarah B. Lawsky (University of California ? Irvine); Leandra Lederman (Indiana ? Bloomington); Adam J. Levitin (Georgetown); Eric Talley (University of California ? Berkeley).  You can take a look at the profiles of this impressive line-up here.

Come back at the end of this week as our new Masters offer advice on what the new Congress and the President should look to accomplish in the business law arena in the next two years.
