Thank you to Jim White and Welcome to Jean Braucher

It's Monday, and we have a changing of the guard. We wanted to thank Professor James J. White of the University of Michigan Law School for joining us last week. Professor White now holds the Credit Slips record for most comments for his post offering a libertarian perspective on the home mortgage crisis.

Beginning today and for the rest of the week, we will be joined by University of Arizona law professor Jean Braucher. In addition to an extensive body of work on bankruptcy law, Professor Braucher also teaches and writes about contract law and has written an number of articles about software contracts, including those fine-print licenses we find after we open the shrink-wrap. We look forward to her contributions.
