Number	Title	Credits
909	Community Banking Practicum	2
Description of course 909 :	This course introduces community banking (typically banks with less than $1 billion in assets), utilizing basic information regarding the banking regulatory structure to explore current issues facing community bankers and their counsel in today's ever-changing environment. The course will explore: the legal definitions of banks and bank holding companies, the underlying regulatory framework, director responsibility and liabilities, regulatory enforcement actions, capital structure and capital raising, bank acquisitions and regulatory reform. Though focusing on the particular, highly-regulated business of banking, the course will offer practical insight into the general challenges of a corporate practice. While the course is oriented towards community banking in a regulated environment many of the concepts addressed, for example, director responsibilities raising capital and selling business will apply more globally to students interested in counseling small business owners in a nonbanking environment as well. This will be a practice oriented course, with sufficient background in doctrinal banking law to provide students with meaningful background necessary to explore the issues facing banking attorneys and their clients in today's marketplace. The initial classes will cover doctrinal banking law followed by practice-oriented classes dealing with current issues in today's banking environment. The end of the course will cover recent and ongoing legislation enacted to deal with the 2008 near-collapse of the financial system.
