The elective curriculum is broad and diverse. In a typical year it embraces 70 to 80 courses and seminars, giving students opportunities to study a wide range of subjects or to focus intensely in a few areas. For most students, the second year is best centered on introductory courses covering major fields. These courses serve several important purposes. They build on first-year courses, are a foundation for more intensive study and facilitate formulation of career goals and objectives. Corporations, Employment Law, Evidence, Federal Income Tax, Sales and Secured Transactions are courses best taken in the second year. Students with interests in Family Law, Trusts and Estates and Criminal Procedure should take these courses in the second year, if possible.
