[Michael Austin · Rating 5 out of 5]

Only a few people will ever need the information in this book, but if you are one of those people (as I am), you can be very grateful that William Kaplin has written this book. I am an administrator at a small college that does not have an in-house attorney. I consult this book at least once a week, and am quite sure that it has kept me out of the courtroom on more than one occasion.

Its a law book, written in law style. Its sometimes hard to keep track of items since they run through different topics. I would have organized it differently but very interesting to read about law and higher education

Not much details for the cases (which were interesting), long chapters.
