The John Marshall Law School in Chicago is the first law school in the nation to offer a degree in information technology law. The master's program is available from the school's Center for Information Technology and Privacy Law. The curriculum includes courses in computer law, information policy and copyright law, and cyberspace law. Lawyers and policy makers need to be conversant in information technology law and policy. Since you can avoid only so many meetings before your assistant runs out of excuses, perhaps you could benefit from a visit to the 3M Meeting Network, a Web site from 3M Corp. that offers scads of free information on how to run meetings more efficiently.
Visitors can also check out a collection of nightmarish stories describing meetings from hell.
3M created the network to address the changes taking place in businesses as they move toward a team-based environment. It used to be that in meetings, people planned the work.
