Gisele’s Posts:\u00a0http:\/\/blog.law.shu.edu\/off-the-record\/author\/gisele-joachim<\/a><\/p>\n Blog:<\/strong>\u00a0Amy Campbell’s Web Log<\/p>\n Blog Platform<\/strong>: Harvard Law School Blog<\/p>\n Bio:\u00a0<\/strong>Amy works as a marketing and communications consultant assisting professional services firms (many of them law firms) to create and maintain communication materials and informational relationships that help to gain and keep customers.<\/p>\n Why I Read Amy’s Posts<\/strong>: One of the big secrets attorneys aren’t taught in law school is how to successfully market their firm once they become an attorney. It’s something we have to learn on our own. One of the ways I do that is educating myself by reading Amy’s posts.<\/p>\n Amy’s Posts:<\/strong>\u00a0http:\/\/blogs.harvard.edu\/amy\/<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Blog:<\/strong> Marquette University Law School Faculty Blog<\/p>\n Bio:<\/strong> In the movie “Wall Street,” the character Gordon Gekko declares that “greed is good.” Certainly greed is one of the most basic motivations for human conduct – some would say it is the most basic motivation for human action. However, the field of corporate and securities law is founded upon the premise that human greed should be channeled towards the more productive ends of capitalism and away from conduct that achieves financial gain through the exploitation of others. When I was a law student, my Corporate Law professor treated the study of insider trading, hostile takeovers and corporate crimes as the dry recitation of legal rules to be memorized. My approach to teaching is different. I teach these cases as human tragedies (and sometimes comedies) involving greed, betrayal and corruption. In my view, the law in this area serves the classic end of all laws: to protect ourselves from our own worst impulses.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n My Favorite\u00a0Post<\/strong>: It was the summer of last year when I discovered Edward’s post\u00a0What Happens if Trump Drops Out?<\/a>. I stay tuned into his feed because of his continued commentary on the incoming Trump administration. While I don’t agree with all his viewpoints, I do agree he is a very intelligent man worth reading.<\/p>\n Edward’s Posts:<\/strong>\u00a0http:\/\/law.marquette.edu\/facultyblog\/author\/edward-fallone\/<\/a><\/p>\n Blog:<\/strong>\u00a0The Columns<\/p>\n Blog Platform<\/strong>: Washington and Lee University Blog<\/p>\n Bio:<\/strong><\/p>\n Peter T.
