ENG 100 College Writing

ENG 100 is the first course in a three-course writing sequence. Throughout the course, students learn several fundamental ideas about writing: that writing is a process; that writing always involves reading; that writing is situational and involves specific rhetorical elements (purpose, audience, text, genre, style, mode); that writing is recursive and therefore always in-process; and that writing requires metacognitive thinking. ENG 100 students engage in a series of essay assignments that reflect points of view, engage with readings, and focus on a central thesis or project. Through these writing practices, students develop a metalanguage to articulate their writing and rhetorical choices and to demonstrate an understanding of sentence structure and syntax as central to meaning. By the end of the course, students should be able to assess a writing situation and then successfully write for that situation. Every semester. Cr 3. The following courses are considered equivalents meeting the same outcomes as College Writing and will not be allowed for additional credit, but instead will follow the USM Repeat Policy and count as a repeat of the previous grade: ENG 100, ENG 101, ENG 104, ESL 100, HON 100, LCC 110, LCC 111, RSP 100 and RSP 104.

LAW 609 Complex Problems Solving for Future Leaders

For the next generation of scientists, lawyers, policy makers, public health professionals, business executives and entrepreneurs, and for any other career path, understanding and seeking solutions to the complex problems currently faced by humanity and the ecosystem is essential. This requires, more than ever, that students be exposed to multi-method, inter- and trans-disciplinary, experiential learning. Maine and the world are experiencing multiple existential security threats (eg., climate change, health, economy, geopolitics) that are interrelated to one another. While complex problems such as climate change are often identified within the context of a single discipline; they require solutions based on multiple disciplines that not only work together, but also beyond disciplinary boundaries. Further, complex problem-solving requires investigation at local-regional-global scales and must include perspective gained by understanding and engaging past analogs to learn from past successes, avoid repeating past mistakes, and considering new modes of co-creating solutions. The foregoing is our best option to achieve win-win pathways forward. This course will train students in the application of interdisciplinary methods for the resolution of complex problems. Instruction will be delivered by experts from multiple disciplines. Students will work in teams applying explicit methods to a broad range of critical challenges. Note: the course is hosted by the University of Maine Portland Gateway https://umaine.edu/portland) and is open to graduate students in any field across the University of Maine System.

LAW 642 Conflict of Laws

This course deals with legal problems that have contact with more than one jurisdiction (i.e., with more than one state in the United States or with the United States or a U.S. state and a foreign country). As one would expect, given modern transportation and communication (especially the Internet) and the globalization of the economy, the number of transactions, relations, and occurrences across state and national lines having legal implications is now enormous. Today it is very likely that a contract, tort, real or personal property, probate, domestic relations, or other common legal problem implicates more than one jurisdiction. This course considers the structuring of transactions so as to anticipate and provide for many of these problems (e.g., in drafting legal documents like commercial contracts, shareholder agreements, wills and trusts, prenuptial agreements, etc.) and the conduct of litigation involving multi-jurisdictional elements. Specific matters covered are the jurisdiction of courts to litigate matters involving out-of-state actors (like tortfeasors or contractual partners), the recognition and enforcement of sister-state and foreign-country judgments, and choice of law (i.e., what substantive and procedural rules a court will apply to a legal matter with multi-jurisdictional contacts).

LAW 645 Federal Courts

The course addresses three main questions: When is a federal constitutional right imposed on state action, instead of leaving the matter to state law? How does a federal system of federal courts and state courts function to enforce federal constitutional rights? What policies drive both the establishment of federal constitutional rights and their enforcement system? Getting answers requires employing systemic, policy and historical perspectives. It requires tracing how, over our history, ideas about federalism and the federalism balance have driven what federal constitutional rights have been established and how their enforcement system has functioned. If you want to understand the law today and be able to conduct constitutional litigation, nothing is more practical than having these perspectives.

LOS 450 Applied Leadership Practicum

This course is built around an applied leadership experience or project that students will create, direct and implement in a context of their choosing. Since students are given some agency in self directed leadership development, there are many forms that student experiences can take. Students can work within a current job, an internship, or another organization in which they practice leadership with or without a formal position of authority. The assignments are designed to guide students through the process of developing, acting, reflecting, and crystallizing learning throughout a field experience in which they engage in leadership practice informed by knowledge gained in the LOS major. The class meetings function as a community of practice seminar to support students' learning development. Deeper forms of leadership development learning will be aided through a recurring leadership coaching process. Individual student development plans will be informed through leadership coaching meeting with the professor and class meetings. The priority here is to foster the applied learning and leadership development potential for each student. Cr. 3.
