Courses

2013 Course To Be Announced

2013 Courses

All courses are One (1) or Two (2) Units based on whether you attend the 2- or 4-week program.

The Colonizer and the Colonized: Shoah and Post-Shoah Genocide Professor Kristian Miccio (Denver)

The rise of the Third Reich birthed the horrors of the Shoah (Holocaust] that resulted in the near extermination of European Jewry. The actions of the Nazis however could not have been accomplished without the concerted efforts of European governments and actors. Using a complex web of hastily created laws, the legacy of Christian Anti-Semitism, collaboration of state and individual actors and the indifference of the Allies, the Third Reich almost succeeded in wiping out European Jewry.

The Shoah is not the first instance of genocide worldwide. The actions of the European Empires in Africa and the Americas, the conduct of the U.S. Government in the attempted eradication and final colonization of the Indians, are illustrations of systemic genocide and the usurpation of indigenous cultures throughout the globe. What made the Shoah unique was the systematic unraveling of democratic laws, not only in the Weimar Republic but also in other countries on the European continent, in the systematic and legally sanctioned murder of a “race of people”-the Jews.

This course will examine the phenomenon of genocide and colonisation through the lens of the legal, cultural and political constructs created by the Third Reich and those collaborators within Old Europe. Additionally, we shall examine how colonization functions in the destruction of the rule of law and in the cultures that are earmarked for colonisation. Through the use of legal texts, literature, film and narrative, students will engage with material that analyzes the structure of colonialism and its affects on both the colonizer and the colonized. Professor Miccio is professor of law at Sturm College of Law, University of Denver. She is a nationally recognized expert on the law as it affects survivors of male intimate violence. She has written, lectured, litigated and testified, at Congressional and State Legislative hearings, on the issue of male intimate violence, women survivors and conceptions of state accountability. Miccio was the author of the NY law that opened up the family and criminal courts to survivors of male intimate violence and one of the authors of the state’s mandatory arrest law in domestic violence cases. She has won numerous awards for her work on behalf of battered women-and for her teaching. At the College of Law, Professor Miccio teaches criminal law and procedure, family law, jurisprudence, and seminars on the Holocaust, the Law and Domestic Violence. She is a Fulbright Scholar, Marie Curie Transfer of Knowledge Scholar, Erasmus Mundus Scholar and a Fulbright Senior Specialist.

Contemporary Topics in Jewish Law Professor Rabbi Michael Broyde (Emory)

Contemporary Topics in Jewish Law: This course examines topics that American law students have examined in various forms from an American law perspective and contrasts that perspective with how the Jewish tradition understands the topics. This summer, the course limits itself to six topics: 1. privacy; 2. marriage; 3. military and battlefield ethics; 4. biomedical ethics; 5. religious freedom and conversion; and 6. legal ethics — the practice of law.

The readings for this course will all be in English and will all be taken from the vast contemporary literature on these topics. When needed, readings in contemporary American law will be provided for background.

Michael J. Broyde is professor of law at Emory Law and a senior fellow at the Center for the Study of Law Religion at Emory University. His primary areas of interest are law and religion, Jewish law and ethics, and comparative religious law. Besides Jewish law and family law, Professor Broyde has taught Federal Courts, Alternative Dispute Resolution, Secured Credit and Bankruptcy. He received a juris doctor from New York University; was ordained (yoreh yoreh ve-yadin yadin) as a rabbi by Yeshiva University; and is a member (dayan) of the Beth Din of America, the largest Jewish law court in America.

Freedoms and Rights in Israel Professor Neil H. Cogan

This course compares fundamental protection for freedoms and rights in the legal systems of the United States and Israel by contrasting decisions by their highest courts in areas such as dignity, equality, privacy, and speech.

Professor Cogan is professor of law and former dean of Whittier Law School and is a candidate for a Ph.D. in American history at the University of California, Irvine. He is the editor of The Complete Bill of Rights, 2d edition (Oxford U. Pr., 2013); Union and States’ Rights: 150 Years After Sumter, Interposition, Nullification, and Secession (Akron U. Pr., 2013); and Contexts of the Constitution (Foundation Pr. 1999), as well as forthcoming course books, Constitutional Law (Wolters Kluwer)(with Don Lively) and Freedoms and Rights in Israel (Carolina Academic Press) and a biography of Theodore Roosevelt (Routledge, 2014).

Globalization, Human Rights, and Law Dr. Oren Perez (Bar Ilan University)

This course examines globalization and its effects upon international legal structures. The emergence of new forms of global law, which evolve and operate across traditional national boundaries, is a major aspect of the globalization process. Globalization has changed the nature of transnational legal institutions in both the public and private international law arena, and has led to new forms of transnational governance. Specific examples include such new legal institutions as the International Criminal Court (ICC), the World Trade Organization (WTO) and its dispute settlement system, and also varied hybrid or private international law regimes, such as the expanding field of technical standardization created by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the new governance structure of the Internet (ICANN). Private bodies such Multinational Enterprises and Non-Governmental Organizations are also playing a key role in the contemporary global arena and the course will examine their contribution against more traditional institutions.

The course will begin with a general inquiry into the concept of globalization. It will then focus on various new and emerging forms of transnational governance, ranging from international human rights law, trade law and environmental law. Special attention will be given to the ways in which these diverse and seemingly separate aspects of international law interact with each other (e.g. the trade-environment debate, the involvement of NGOs and Multinational Enterprises in trade disputes). We will focus on the legal instruments that govern these diverse regimes and the international institutions that implement them. The course will also examine the impact of these new global regimes upon Israel and its laws.

Prof. Oren Perez is a member of the Faculty of Law at Bar Ilan University, Israel. He has LLB (Magna Cum Laude) from Tel Aviv University, Faculty of Law, 1993, LLM, PhD, London School Of Economics and Political Science, 1995, 2001. His research focuses on environmental law & policy, regulation, globalization and the law, and legal theory.

Information Law in Cyberspace Professor Miriam Bitton (Bar Ilan University)

The emergence of global digital networks, such as the Internet, and digital technologies that enhance human abilities to access, store, manipulate and transmit vast amounts of information introduces a host of new legal issues that lawyers preparing to practice in the 21st century need to understand and address. Both Israel and the United States have been on the forefront of dealing with such legal issues. This course explores the question how the law should treat the digital environment by looking at specific problems, such as: freedom of speech in cyberspace; liability of Internet Service Providers; e-Commerce and electronic contracts; the digital aspects of copyright law (such as file sharing and digital rights management), search engines as well as other issues. Emphasis will be on legal developments in cyberlaw in the United States and Israel. There are no prerequisites for the course.

Dr. Miriam Bitton is a law professor at Bar-Ilan University School of Law. She received her Bachelor of Laws and Master of Laws degrees at Bar-Ilan University School of Law, as well as another Master of Laws at University of Michigan Law School and a Doctor of the Science of Law at Michigan. A former Visiting Assistant Professor of Law at DePaul University College of Law, she was also the Microsoft Research Fellow at U.C. Berkeley School of Law and a Visiting Fellow at George Washington University Law School. Dr. Bitton can be reached at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

Lawyering Skills Professor Neil H. Cogan

An introduction to the theoretical structures in interviewing, counseling, negotiation, and trial skills, that gives students the opportunity to perform simulations of lawyering tasks. This is the classroom component for the Externship Program. The class includes discussions of externship experiences. This course must be taken with a clinic or an externship.

State and Religion in Comparative Perspective Dr. Gidon Sapir (Bar Ilan University)

This course examines the relationship between the state and religion in various legal systems. Particular emphasis will be placed on the role of religion and religious institutions in the legal system and legal structures of the State of Israel. The course will examine how Israel, created as a state for the Jewish people, has handled the tensions between maintaining Israel as a state with a Jewish identity and at the same time a liberal democracy. As we will see, over the past several years once latent disagreements over matters of religion and state have become a major source of political and cultural tensions in Israeli society.

The first part of the course will be dedicated to conceptual analysis and presentation of various models for the legal role of religion in various national legal systems, including models found in states based upon Christianity and Islam. In the second part, we will take a closer look at several specific religious disputes arising in Israeli law, including rights of citizenship, family law disputes, and Sabbath and dietary law observance. The course will conclude with a comparison between the arrangements made in Israel and in the United States as to the legal status of religion.

Dr. Gidon Sapir is a law professor at Bar-Ilan University School of Law, the site of our Israel program. He received his LL.B. law degree from Bar-Ilan University and his LL.M. and S.J.D. advanced law degrees from Northwestern University. He has been a visiting professor at University of Toronto School of Law. Dr. Sapir can be reached at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

Cultural Tours (Optional)

An important part of the program is the opportunity to experience the magic of Israel and its environs. Previous students have included many for whom this was their first visit to the Holy Land. Classes end on Thursday morning, so students have time to travel over a long weekend.

In conjunction with our partners, Israel Experts Ltd., the program provides optional tours to other parts of Israel, including Galilee, the Jordan River, the Dead Sea, Eilat, and Jerusalem. Students in past years also traveled to Jordan, including the lost city of Petra, to the Sinai Desert in Egypt, Cairo, and Cyprus.

Rooms and Services

Classes are held in the Faculty of Law main building and annex. The administrative office of the program is on the second floor of the main building, adjacent to the dean’s office. The library and carrels are in the main building on the first and sub-first floors. Computers with internet access are in the sub-first floor of the library. Classrooms and restrooms are accessible to the disabled.

Housing Information

There is no official program housing for the Israel Study Abroad Program. However, housing accommodations for students are available through a private vendor called IsraelExperts on a “first-come, first-serve” basis. Although most students choose to reside in the same facility, it is not a requirement in order for you to participate in the academic program. Regardless of whether you obtain housing through IsraelExperts or obtain housing on your own, the Program assumes no responsibility for housing.

IsraelExperts also provide arrangements for a private bus to take students to/from classes at Bar-Ilan University and to all legal excursions. The private bus will leave from nearby the location of the arranged housing.

Accommodations through IsraelExperts

To view housing options arranged by our tour provider, IsraelExperts, please see:

Questions for IsraelExperts may be sent by email to .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).

Access to Computers & Internet Service

It is strongly recommended for students to bring their own notebook/laptop computer, particularly for those courses that require papers or written assignments.

Grading

Students are required to attend all classes and participate actively in all classes. All students receive a course grade based on class participation and a required paper or exam administered at the end of each course. Seminar classes have limited enrollment and require regular class participation. For seminars, students may be required to make group or individual presentations, and typically the most significant component of the final grade is determined by a research paper of approximately 10-15 pages per unit of credit to be determined by the professor.

All Whittier Summer Abroad Courses are graded by using the same grading system used for the on-campus program. We do not offer courses on a Pass/No Pass basis except for units earned for Externships, Independent Study projects, and clinical or extern units. Professors report numerical grades based on a 4.0 point system as follows:

  • 3.6 – 4.0 (A)
  • 3.0 – 3.4 (B)
  • 2.5 – 2.9(C )
  • 2.3 – 2.4(C-)
  • 1.8 – 2.2 (D)
  • 1.7 (F)

Reporting of Grades

Whittier Law School will report all grades once they are reported and finalized by the professors. Professors submit grades no later than six weeks after the end of the program. Non-Whittier students must inquire with their home school for policies regarding accepting courses and transferring credit for courses taken at Whittier law school’s summer programs. Whether credit will be accepted and how grades will be reported at the home school is entirely at the discretion of each student’s home school.

Grading Normalization

Course Registration

You will be required to select your courses no later than the March 1 application deadline. For some programs, there are several course choices.

Courses with insufficient enrollment will be cancelled.

Add/Drop Period: March 1 – 8, 2013

We must make early commitments of financial resources to operate our summer programs, including faculty assignments. Therefore, we will offer a very limited opportunity to add or drop a class after the registration deadline. Please consider carefully your course selections.

Please be advised that the Program Directors make early commitments to secure housing, purchase materials and pay for other program expenses based upon the number of participants determined shortly after the application deadline. Additionally, the Law School makes non-refundable financial commitments to faculty, program activities, and foreign hosts based upon the anticipated student tuition revenue at the time of registration. Therefore, it will not be possible for Whittier Law School to accept requests for refunds and/or relief of commitment to pay tuition or housing fees after the April 1, 2013 deadline to withdraw. A student who withdraws from a program after that date will be liable for all fees and tuition.

Please be advised that once you withdraw from a summer program, there will be a $50 fee to re-activate your application and reserve your space in the program in the event that you subsequently change your mind. We understand that a few of you may need to change your summer plans, and we are ready to assist you as best we can. We wish you all a wonderful and productive summer.

Notices of withdrawal received after April 1, 2013 will not be considered for refund or for tuition fee relief. Any program participant who withdraws after April 1, 2013 will be responsible for the full price of tuition and/or other non-refundable fees.

Withdrawal after the April 1 Deadline

Whittier Law School will not refund tuition or housing fees or grant relief from these financial obligations under any circumstance after the April 1 deadline, not even in the event that a student withdraws for reasons or misfortunes beyond his or her control, e.g., academic disqualification, financial aid disqualification, medical emergencies, or any other unforeseen circumstances, etc. Therefore, it is very important that each student weigh carefully his or her decision to participate in one of Whittier Law School’s Study Abroad Programs. Since no tuition or housing fee will be refunded under any circumstance after April 1, students are encouraged to consider Tuition Insurance. You may inquire with the Jennifer Maniscalco for additional information regarding Tuition Insurance.

Changes in Course Offerings or Other Significant Aspects of the Program by Whittier Law School

Whittier Law School reserves the right to cancel or alter the Study Abroad Programs.

In the event that Whittier Law School decides to cancel, significantly change the course offerings, or make other material changes to a program, students will be notified and given the opportunity to withdraw without financial penalty. All tuition and all fees will be promptly returned. In the event of program cancellation, the Associate Dean for International Relations will assist displaced registrants to find suitable alternative summer programs.

Students on Academic Notice

Students typically learn their GPA in June after all grades have been submitted and published. It is particularly important that you carefully weigh whether you should apply to a Summer Abroad program if there is an apparent risk of academic disqualification. After April 1, 2013, no one is excused from financial commitments, even when disqualified and even when student loans are cancelled.

Program Enrollees Who Subsequently Learn That They Are Academically Disqualified

Please be advised that if you fail to withdraw by the withdrawal deadline and subsequently learn that you are academically disqualified, we will hold you responsible for tuition fees and any other fees we cannot recover should you decide not to attend the summer abroad program. Therefore, we invite your participation. You will be welcome to take courses, participate in enrichment opportunities, and fully participate in all program activities.
