Professor Isaacs will lead the discussion on the question. "The place of business law in the curriculum of a School of Business." He is the leading exponent of the idea that business law be taught as a part of a general course on the relation of business to its world.

Requests have been coming to the University from business schools throughout the country for an explanation of the case system schools.
