Hello Employment Law students,

As reviewed in my email of Dec. 29th to all students enrolled in this class, and with a couple updates--
In advance of the first day of class, please:

1. Read the Chris Spencer handout re types of employment issues (will come to all enrolled students by email the weekend before our first class-- it's 4 pages).

2. Start reading the printed news-- newspapers and magazines-- as well as the web to ID different types of employment issues that are arising today. Please bring a few that you find interesting to class on our first day.

3. Purchase or rent the casebook: Wilborn, Schwab Employment Law (5th edition 2012). Various formats are available, including 3-ring and hardcover. We will start using it on the 2nd day's class so please have read pp. 3-11. (The following week the MLK holiday occurs on Monday, 1/18, but we will resume class on Wed. 1/20. We will be covering pp. 13-44 over weeks 2 - 3, in case you like to read ahead.

Looking forward to seeing you for the fascinating and critically important field of Employment Law! --Prof. Hoke
