“But it’s not.”Kammer's course, The Taylor Swift Effect, planned for the spring semester looks to be the first law school class based on the sequined musical icon. After attending a Swift concert in Minneapolis in June, Kammer said he was inspired to develop the writing-intensive class, available to second- and third-year law students. Pop culture-focused law classes are not uncommon, and they can create a public relations buzz for the schools that offer them. Boston University law professor Jessica Silbey, who co-authored a textbook on pop culture and the law, said students tend to be more engaged when they study subjects such as sports, new technology and celebrities. The University of California at Berkeley this week announced an upcoming business course based on Swift’s entrepreneurship.
