Hope to see you at the 2017 Oregon Law Summer Sports Institute
Hope to see you at the 2017 Oregon Law Summer Sports Institute
Looking to study sports law this summer?
You might be interested to know that I�ll be teaching again this July at the University of Oregon�s annual Summer Sports Institute. This is a five-week, six-credit program that brings together faculty and experts from across the nation to teach in an immersive environment. The program is designed for students who are interested in sports law but attend law schools that don�t offer a meaningful regular-semester sports law program.
Like last summer, I�ll be joined by Matthew Mitten (Marquette), Gabe Feldman (Tulane), Jo Potuto (Nebraska), Andrew Brandt (Villanova), Maureen Weston (Pepperdine), and a host of others. Also, I�m told the program will feature around 20 outside speakers from as far away as Barcelona, including Ed Goines, the general counsel of the Seattle Seahawks, Paul Loving, US sports law counsel for Adidas, and Marcos Motta, the Brazilian lawyer who represents Neymar.
To apply, or if you have any questions, contact program director Robert Illig at rillig@uoregon.edu.
The final deadline is June 2nd. Former participants have raved to me about how much they�ve learned from the program and how much fun they had making connections with other like-minded students, faculty and practitioners. Hope to see you there!
