Introduction to Employee Benefits Law
This book was created to present the modern world of employee benefits law in a manner that is both easily understood by the students and enjoyable for the instructor to teach. The book provides a streamlined presentation of the Code rules for qualified plans, thereby making room for an expanded treatment of defined contribution plans (particularly 401(k) plans) and health care plans. Much of the coverage in the book is condensed by using narrative text to introduce each new concept and to summarize the blackletter principles of the law (where they exist). After reading their assignments from this book, students arrive at class with an understanding of the concepts and an ability, based on the numerous illustrations throughout the narrative text, to apply the rules to client situations. The book substantially reduces the amount of class time that must be devoted to eradicating student confusion and explaining how the rules operate. As a result, more class time may be devoted to discussion of the hypothetical client problems, presented periodically throughout each chapter, that are designed to test the students? understanding of the material.

Immigration Outside the Law
"A 1975 state-wide law in Texas made it legal for school districts to bar students from public schools if they were in the country illegally, thus making it extremely difficult or even possible for scores of children to receive an education. The resulting landmark Supreme Court case, Plyler v. Doe (1982), established the constitutional right of children to attend public elementary and secondary schools regardless of legal status and changed how the nation approached the conversation about immigration outside the law. Today, as the United States takes steps towards immigration policy reform, Americans are subjected to polarized debates on what the country should do with its "illegal" or "undo...
