  • Teaching Torts with Sports Adam Epstein, Central Michigan University
    Central Michigan University From the SelectedWorks of Adam Epstein 2011 Teaching Torts with Sports Adam Epstein, Central Michigan University Available at: http://works.bepress.com/adam_epstein/4/ Journal of Legal Studies Education Volume 28, Issue 1, 117–142, Winter/Spring 2011 Teaching Torts with Sports Adam Epsteinn I. INTRODUCTION One of the most enjoyable and interesting subjects for students taking a business law or legal environment course is the study of torts. Whether a course only allows this discussion for a week or longer, seasoned professors realize that they can capture the attention of students by covering torts topics such as slip-and-fall litigation, defective products that cause injuries, and fisticuffs among neighbors. The purpose of this article is to offer a roadmap for engaging students through sports-related tort issues and litigation. This article encourages the use of sports torts because they are of particular interest to many students and also because they facilitate an active learning environment.1 The article discusses tort issues that can be examined using sports cases and cites numerous examples. Sports torts present a natural opportunity to use video clips in the class- room. Videos are an invaluable technological tool to demonstrate various torts to the students, and sportsvideosareubiquitous.2 Usually, students are quite eager to watch videos with action. Therefore, throughout the entire semester, videos showing late hits, athletes kicking cameramen, fighting among fans, misbehavior by athletes or mascots, and attacks on sports reporters are effec- tive and energizing both in and out of the classroom environment.3 The nProfessor, Department of Finance and Law, Central Michigan University.
