Many of us have a lawyer in our life—a spouse, child, parent or friend. Still, how the legal mind works is a mystery to most. This half-day course will examine the question of what it means to “think like a lawyer” through study of the film My Cousin Vinny. Students are encouraged to read John Denvir’s book, Guile is Good! Why We Need Lawyers (www.guileisgood.com/guile-is-good-the-book) and to visit its companion blog (www.guileisgood.com).
