While you should type up a brief for each case assigned, briefs will only be collected if three students are called on and found unprepared. Those selecting Option A will write a 10-page, typed paper about a timely media law issue. The class presentations are on the same topic as the paper and are led by two-four students who have written on the same topic. They are scheduled throughout the term to coincide with the discussion on that issue. See handout for more information.
