  • EDU 622: School Law

    3.00 Credits
    Concordia University-Portland (Closed)

As a consequence, we see decisions regarding our schools increasingly being made by the courts. Accordingly, it behooves the educator of today to have a basic knowledge of the judicial branch of our government and its impact on education. Specifically, this course encourages students to become familiar with the manner in which courts operate, how they make their decisions, and the impact of their decisions on education and educational policy.
