Joan MacLeod Heminway (Tennessee; Google Scholar) & Brian Kingsley Krumm (Tennessee), Teaching Transactional Business Law through Campus and Community Partnerships, 25 Transactions: Tenn. J. Bus. L. 931 (2024):

In this edited transcript, we explain how each of us–a doctrinal law professor and a clinician–use members of our campus and local communities to help instruct transactional business law students. We each have independently realized that there is a value to sharing these outside business and legal experts with our students. Among other things, we have found that we can bring unique areas of legal and business expertise into our teaching and, at the same time, introduce our students to real-life practice experiences and related simulations. All of this is foundational to law practice. 

In addition, experiences of this kind are, in our view, increasingly useful and important as we look toward preparing students for the concepts, principles, and skills that will be tested on the NextGen Bar.
