Social Media and Advertising Law

Social Media and Advertising Law explores the legal questions that arise in both traditional advertising contexts and within the social media framework.  Issues we will touch upon include commercial speech, puffery, NLRB, blog endorsements, giveaways, brand ambassadorships, sponsorship deals, and other interactions with the general public.   This course is a seminar.  Students will be required to write in-depth approved topics in the field.  Additionally, students will do project-based work related to social media and advertising law.  This seminar may be taken to satisfy the upper-class writing requirement.
