Graduate Seminar: Current Issues in Securities Regulation
Professor Morley
LL.M Seminar 954
| 3 credit hours
Explores recent trends and developments in federal securities regulation. During the 2004-04 year, we focused on recent legislative and regulatory efforts to control corporate misconduct through increased transparency; enhanced director independence; greater focus on the conduct of "gatekeepers" such as lawyers and accountants; and initiatives to leverage scarce law enforcement resources. The students will select paper topics in consultation with the professors.

Notes:
LL.M. students matriculating in Fall 2005 are not required to complete a graduate paper to be eligible for graduating with distinction. [exception: Graduate Tax Scholars and COST Fellows.] LL.M. students who matriculated beginning in Fall 2003 or Fall 2004 must complete a graduate paper in their field of study if they wish to be eligible for graduation with distinction. LL.M. students who matriculated prior to Fall 2003 are required to complete a graduate paper as part of their degree requirement. The graduate paper requirement may be satisfied by successfully completing one of the Graduate Seminars or, if matriculation was in the 2003-2004 academic year, by completing either a Graduate Seminar or a Supervised Research project. [See "Graduate Paper Registration" in the schedule of courses] This Graduate Seminar cannot be dropped after the end of the add/drop period.
