Perspective Requirement

All students must successfully complete one course devoted to the study of other legal systems, insights of other academic disciplines (such as history, literature, economics, philosophy, anthropology, or sociology), or other non-traditional viewpoints on legal concepts or problems.

The following courses satisfy this requirement: American Legal History (873), Jurisprudence (877), Law & Economics (879), Law & Literature (881), Public International Law (886), Supreme Court (850), Tax Theory (975), and Women and the Law (958). In addition, the Dean may designate as satisfying the requirement other courses and seminars (including non-law courses approved for law school credit) that meet this standard.
