Tracking and Assessing the (Non)Inclusion of Courses on Sexuality and/or Sexual Orientation in the American Law School Curriculum:

Reports From the Field After a Decade of Effort

Francisco Valdes1 [Copyright 1995, Francisco Valdes]

INTRODUCTION

The past ten years mark the first decade of proactive and (somewhat) organized efforts to include sexuality and sexual orientation in American legal education -- a decade that builds on the individuated efforts of even earlier pioneers. During this seminal decade a remarkable

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 150---------------------------------

increase in the inclusion of courses on sexuality and/or sexual orientation in the curriculum of American law schools has taken place. At the same time, as we prepare to enter a second decade of effort on behalf of sexuality and sexual orientation legal education, most law schools in this country still fail to provide an opportunity for their students to learn about the laws and the policies that regulate the expression of human sexualities. This mixed state of affairs is cause both for optimism and for disappointment;.2 it counsels for renewed and increased efforts in this regard as we bring the first decade to a close and turn to the opportunities and challenges of the second decade ahead of us.

This mixed state of affairs is itself quite remarkable, given the universal relevance of this topic: compared to the extensive coverage of subjects such as corporations and securities -- which in everyday life affect directly only a relatively few players in our society -- it is remarkable that the coverage of a subject like sexuality, which directly affects every single member of society in everyday life, should receive such relatively silent treatment.

To help bring some balance and, ideally, some progress, to this state of (mostly) silence, this article reports on the (non)inclusion of courses on sexuality and/or sexual orientation in the law schools of this country as of 1995. In doing so, this article pursues several objectives at once. First and foremost, the article sets out to track and assess the extent of course offerings devoted "primarily"3 to sexuality and/or sexual orientation in the law schools of the nation so that we may be aware of progress, or its lack, in recent years, and so that we thereby may inform our efforts on behalf of such courses in future years. A corollary to this first objective is to identify "related"4 courses that provide some significant or substantial coverage of these issues so that we can draw a broader and more complete sense of progress regarding this subject. However, the main focus and purpose of this article is to map the existence and operation of "primary" courses, which are a key gauge of a law school's coverage of and commitment to education on this subject.

This article also attempts to advance the quality of legal education regarding sexuality and/or sexual orientation by noting similarities in the types of approaches, or sources of materials, that individual teachers in this area have adopted in the absence of standardized established course materials or structures.5 Similarly, this article sets out to facilitate communication between and among legal educators by identifying faculty members currently teaching in this area, helping in this way to promote dialogues or multilogues, and thus a more palpable sense of professional community, that could enhance the way(s) in which we teach our classes. Ultimately, and as a whole, this article endeavors to encourage the unfinished and continuing process of meaningful inclusion for courses on sexuality and/or sexual orientation in the American law school curriculum as we stand on the cusp of a second decade of work calculated to ensure the attainment precisely of this goal.6

Section I of the article outlines the history and the methodology of this project. Section II then summarizes the basic documentary results and findings of this project. Section III continues with a set of four tables that present the raw data gathered via this project in their entirety. Section IV closes the article by noting some concluding and forward-looking thoughts that may be drawn from the data.

I.

HISTORY AND METHODOLOGY

This project began in the fall of 1994 when a questionnaire was sent to the dean of every law school belonging to the American Association of Law Schools (AALS).7 Of 176 schools, 93 responded to that first questionnaire. About six weeks later, a duplicate of that questionnaire was sent to all of the non-responding schools, again asking for the requested information. Of the 83 schools contacted in this follow-up mailing, 60 responded. About six weeks later, every school that still had not responded was contacted by telephone to obtain the requested information.8 At the conclusion of this process, fully 100% of all law schools belonging to the AALS had been documented.

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 151---------------------------------

The documentation process included a request that each law school identify the faculty member(s), whether full-time or otherwise, who taught courses on sexuality and/or sexual orientation. The next step therefore was to contact each identified faculty member directly to obtain further information regarding the nature, contents, and design of these courses.9 In this way, a bank of syllabi was established.10 This bank forms the main source of supplemental information presented in this article to identify general approaches to, and materials used in, the teaching of these courses in American law schools today.

Additionally, every faculty member identified by a law school as teaching in this area was invited to attend a luncheon meeting at the 1995 AALS Annual Meeting, held in New Orleans. The 47 attendees at that luncheon meeting were given copies of the tables and asked to modify or add to the information thus far compiled via the mailed questionnaires and the telephone inquiries.11 This new data then were incorporated into the tables of results set forth below. Finally, each law school reporting the existence of a "primary" course was contacted by telephone during the spring of 1995 to confirm the data and to learn more details about recent enrollment figures specifically for the "primary" courses. This final step completed the data-gathering phase of the project. These findings are streamlined and summarized below, and then presented in full in the tables of data that follow.

II.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND RESULTS As mentioned at the outset, the findings and results gathered via this project present a mixed picture. Numerous law schools report some form of coverage of sexuality and/or sexual orientation legal issues in their curriculum: 44 schools reported offering 48 courses that are devoted "primarily" to sexuality and/or sexual orientation,12 while 40 schools reported offering 64 courses that are "related" to this subject in that they cover the subject in some significant or substantial fashion (for example, as in AIDS & the Law).13 These numbers (adjusted for overlaps) thus show that 66 of 176 American law schools -- over one third of the total -- have made room in their curriculum for course(s) that are primarily devoted, or substantially related, to this subject. Yet these numbers simultaneously show that most law schools -- 110 of 176 -- still fail to provide their students with any form of opportunity to engage in the formal study of these legal issues in the context of a course. These numbers thus show significant but qualified inclusion in absolute terms.

Similarly, these numbers show a marked comparative increase -- approaching double - - in the number of schools offering these types of courses during the past five years. In a series of studies concluded in 1990, Gene Schultz found that 35 schools offered 48 courses14 that were either "primary" or "related" as those descriptors are used here.15 As indicated by course titles, it further seems that, of those, 13 schools offered 14 "primary" courses,16 and that 23 schools offered 34 "related" courses.17 By contrast, as just noted, the 66 schools identified in this study today offer a total of 112 "primary" and/or "related" courses.18 These comparative results thus show a dramatic increase both in schools and in course offerings in relative terms.

These absolute and comparative findings also depict a two-track expansion of legal education on this subject in recent years. The results clearly show an expansion at the curricular level-- an expansion from 14 to 48 of "primary" courses within the collective American law curriculum, which represents a threefold-plus increase in the number of specialized courses on sexuality and/or sexual orientation being offered by American law schools as a whole. This increase expands the curriculum itself. However, these results also show an expansion of coverage at the course level-- an expansion of material and, presumably, time devoted to this subject within "related" fields, or ongoing studies, of law. These results thus show a dual expansion both along specialty and mainstream levels-- a simultaneous move towards specialization and mainstreaming that on the whole can help avoid even the appearance of ghettoization and that, as a practical matter, reaches more law students more often during their years of formal education.

Yet a closer comparison of both sets of results shows that eight schools actually have ---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 152---------------------------------

lost both "primary" and "related" courses that existed in 1990, such that they do not offer any course of either type today.19 Thus, while showing that significant overall progress in absolute and relative terms indeed has been made, these results also show that such progress may be contingent and precarious-- and that, in some instances, progress made in fact has been lost in the subsequent and few years. These net results thus caution against complacency in the wake of a generally successful decade.

Additionally, the enrollment figures for "primary" courses show the average size of these classes range from three to 60 students per course offering. Moreover, the highest concentration of classes falls within a range of 10-25.20 Numerically, these courses therefore reach relatively few American law students even though, of course, these numbers are supplemented by those of students enrolled in "related" courses. These enrollment figures, in tandem with the overall results, provide, at best, grounds for cautious optimism: they depict a definite but limited availability, accessibility, and delivery of educational opportunity regarding sexuality and sexual orientation in formal American legal education. These results, in other words, depict a definite but limited penetration of the curriculum and activities of the American law school.

These results also show a mixed, but not too surprising, geographic distribution for the current course offerings. By and large, the findings of this project indicate that progress is concentrated in schools located along the East and West coasts, or schools located in urban, metropolitan areas, or in schools that are relatively prominent and prestigious.21 Thus, progress is being made, but not across the board, nor consistently throughout the country. These results show pockets, rather than blankets, of progress. On a systemic level they similarly depict a definite but limited penetration of American legal education.

This brief summary indicates how the findings regarding the numbers and types of courses and schools being offered as of 1995, and as we shift from the first to the second decade of this effort, present cause for cautious optimism and determined perseverance. In order to sort through these mixed findings, and to help guide the future direction of efforts in this regard, the data next are broken down into five sets of findings in the Summary Table depicted immediately below. The summary categories presented below, in order of presentation, are: Schools, Courses, Scheduling, Credits, and Faculty.22 This Summary Table then is supplemented with the four tables that report the raw data in their entirety.

As the Summary Table and preceding discussion indicate, the courses devoted "primarily" to sexuality and/or sexual orientation are the specific focus of this project. These courses, as the findings show, generally are offered for two or three academic credits, and

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 157---------------------------------

generally are offered at least once every year: of 48 "primary" courses, over half are offered at least annually and all of them are offered for two or three academic credits. These figures thus indicate that these courses are being added to the law school curriculum with the same level(s) of weight and with the same cycle(s) of frequency that generally apply to upper-level elective law courses. The enrollment figures for "primary" courses additionally, and similarly, show that class sizes for these courses, which generally concentrate in the range of 10-25 students per course, also tend to reflect the usual or typical enrollment for "boutique" courses or seminars.23

Interestingly, the Summary Table also indicates that six of the 48 "primary" courses are "new" courses, meaning that they have been introduced into the curriculum during the past year. And, seven of the 64 "related" courses are "new" too. In combination, these figures show that 13 of the 112 courses -- or about 10% of the total -- were introduced in just the past year. These statistics are significant because they indicate a robust sense of continuing momentum regarding the inclusion of these courses and issues in the curricular menu of American law schools. This indication is corroborated by the comparative data as well.

For instance, in his series of studies conducted between 1985 and 1990, Gene Schultz reported 13 schools offering 14 courses that here would be designated as "primary," whereas this article reports 44 schools offering 48 such courses, thus more than tripling both the number of schools and courses specifically under the "primary" category during the past five years. More generally, and at the institutional level, Schultz also found that the total number of schools reporting either "primary" or "related" courses offerings had quadrupled during the five years spanning his series of studies, ultimately reaching a total of 35 schools by 1990,24 whereas this project reports a total of 66 schools offering either or both types of courses by 1995. Thus, in the past five years the number of schools reporting either or both types of courses has nearly doubled, while in the immediately-preceding five years this number had quadrupled. The past ten years, both in absolute and relative terms, thus reflect exponential (though perhaps currently slowing) momentum at the institutional level.25

Another significant set of statistics reported above in the Summary Table is that both "primary" and "related" courses are usually taught by full-time, tenured or tenure-track faculty: over half of the 48 "primary" courses are taught by full-time faculty, and most of the 64 "related" courses are taught by full-time faculty.26 These findings are significant because they suggest that both types of courses are generally, slowly but surely, being embraced by the category of faculty members with the most power and influence in American legal education.

Additionally, these findings indirectly suggest two other related developments: a general climate of increased acceptance for sexual minority issues, students, faculty, and staff in legal academia as well as a higher number of openly lesbian, bisexual, and gay students, faculty, and staff populating the corridors and classrooms of American law schools. These two points are suggested by the findings of this project because the increase in schools and in courses indicates a growing constituency for the study of these issues within legal culture, and a growing responsiveness to this constituency by dominant forces within legal education. To some extent, these findings consequentially (and indirectly) indicate both tangible and attitudinal progress regarding awareness of, and concern for, the presence and treatment of sexual minority persons and interests in American law schools.27

The data presented above in the discussion and Summary Table, on balance, suggest or depict a gradual and uneven but steady and continuing inclusion and mainstreaming of sexual minority issues and people in contemporary American legal education at the curricular level, at the administrative level, at the student level, and at the faculty level. This process of (non)inclusion, as noted, is measurable both in absolute and comparative terms. These findings, which are based on data provided directly by the schools, in turn can be supplemented with information provided by individual faculty members who submitted their syllabi specifically for "primary" courses. This supplemental information is especially helpful in providing a glimpse of the design and operation of the "primary" courses being offered today. The supplemental findings summarized below therefore are based on the 20 "primary" course syllabi provided directly by the 18 faculty members included in the Syllabi Table that

Though it was impracticable to "publish" the 20 syllabi gathered for this project, their contents readily reveal some remarkable similarities in approaches to, and structuring of, the courses devoted "primarily" to sexuality and/or sexual orientation.29 Perhaps most notably, all of these "primary" courses uniformly emphasize cross-disciplinary studies of sexuality and/or sexual orientation legal issues by bringing together a variety of sources from multiple disciplines for use as course materials. This cross-disciplinary approach in turn seems to engender expansive and nuanced treatments of the legal issues regarding sexuality and/or sexual orientation. For instance, most of the courses cover "identity" issues, including the status/conduct distinction, and also explore the relationship between gender and sexuality. In descending order of prevalence, these cross-disciplinary materials tend to emphasize law review articles, book excerpts, essays or articles from gay and lesbian cultural studies, reports and clips from newspapers or magazines, and, finally, primary sources such as statutes and court opinions.

Additionally, of the 20 syllabi, 15 reported adopting "required" texts: ten courses reported using William Rubenstein's Lesbians, Gay Men and the Law,30 two courses reported using Arthur Leonard's Sexuality and the Law,31 two courses reported using a combination of Ruthann Robson's Lesbian (Out) Law, the Harvard Law Review's book on Sexual Orientation & the Law, and John D'Emilio's Sexual Politics, Sexual Communities,32 and one course reported using Estelle Freedman's and John D'Emilio's Intimate Matters.33 However, in each of these courses the required text books are supplemented with additional, cross-disciplinary materials. A few courses also include multi-media materials such as audio tapes and video tapes.

Doctrinally, the syllabi indicate that these "primary" courses generally concentrate on a combination of constitutional law and family law. Under constitutional law, the courses focus on the Fourteenth Amendment (equal protection, discrimination, privacy) and on the First Amendment (expression and association). Under family law, the courses focus on "marriage" and the formation of recognized family units, including adoption, as well as dissolution issues, including child custody. Some coverage of criminal law also takes place in the treatment of sodomy laws. However, these courses sometimes also venture beyond doctrine to consider more theoretical matters, like the sameness/difference dilemma, post-modernism, and the relationship between Bi/Lesbian/Gay studies on the one hand and Feminism or Critical Race theory on the other. Thus, even on a substantive level, these "primary" courses reflect a greater faculty willingness -- or might it be need or liberty? -- to experiment with and expand on the traditional ways and means of selecting, organizing, and presenting the sources, contents, and boundaries of a law school course.

As this summary indicates, the individuated efforts of various faculty across the country to conceptualize and assemble their sexuality/sexual orientation courses seem to be converging in

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 164---------------------------------

some key respects to yield some remarkable commonalities regarding approach, materials, and organization. Over the longer run, these commonalities perhaps may be seen as setting an example for progressive or innovative tendencies more generally in the legal Academy. In the meantime, perhaps new channels and opportunities for cross-communication can aid individual teachers to learn more and faster from each other about this still fresh, uncharted, and unfolding area of law teaching. To help motivate and facilitate increased discourse on the ongoing efforts of today's law teachers to educate American law students on the regulation of human sexualities and orientations, this article next turns to new and upcoming opportunities for cross- communication.

As part of this project, the author recently established an Internet discussion list called "teachsex," which is devoted specifically to facilitating discussions regarding the teaching of courses on sexuality and/or sexual orientation in a law school setting. All of the faculty members listed in the Syllabi Table above provided their mailing addresses, telephone numbers, and, where available, their Internet/e-mail addresses to establish a base of subscribers/discussants for this list, and thereby to help establish lines and networks of communication between and among legal educators on pedagogical and other issues relating to these courses. Accordingly, all of the faculty listed in the Syllabi Table already have been notified by Internet e-mail that the list has been established, and they have been invited to self-subscribe to the list. The same courteousy message has been sent to every teacher (with an Internet address) of a "primary" course identified in Table 2 below. Anyone may subscribe by sending the following message to majordomo@cwsl.edu: subscribe teachsex end

Subscribers will receive a message confirming the subscription to the "teachsex" list.34

Additionally, the author is helping to coordinate a program on "Teaching Sexual Orientation & the Law: Ways and Means" to be held in conjunction with the 1996 AALS Annual Meeting in San Antonio. This program, which is intended as a more formal follow-up to the 1995 luncheon meeting,35 is being sponsored by the Society of American Law Teachers (SALT). Though the details of this event have not been finalized, the event tentatively has been scheduled for the afternoon of "Day Minus One" to avoid conflicts with AALS events.36 As presently being planned, this program will focus on practical ways and means of teaching the subject in a law school setting. Those interested in attending this program therefore should plan travel arrangements early and accordingly. And those interested in participating should contact the author as soon as possible.

TABLES OF RESULTS The raw data gathered in this project is presented in full in this section in the form of the four following tables. Table 1, titled "OVERALL RESULTS," presents the responses of every

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 165---------------------------------

school regarding the (non)inclusion of this type of course in their curriculum. The second and third tables break down these overall results further. Table 2, titled "PRIMARY COURSES," presents the courses (and teaching faculty) that are "primarily" devoted to sexuality and/or sexual orientation. Table 3, titled "RELATED COURSES," includes the courses (and teaching faculty) that devote some significant or substantial time and coverage to issues of sexuality and/or sexual orientation but that are not "primarily" focused on these issues. Table 4, titled "COMPARATIVE RESULTS," tracks the progress made since the last surveys, which Gene Schultz completed five years ago in 1990, by comparing those results with today's results. Beginning on the next page, the data, as reported by the respective sources of information involved in the completion of this project,37 speak for themselves. A forward-looking conclusion then follows the tables to close the article. Copyright 1995 by Francisco X. Valdes

The mixed results reported in the tables and discussion above make for some forward- looking, if general, conclusions regarding both the current situation of and near-term prospects for sexuality and/or sexual orientation legal education. And, though it is difficult, or impossible, to separate cause from effect in the preceding report of mixed results, these findings do suggest actions and directions to guide us in the second decade of this new front in legal education. This mixed picture, however, also makes the significance of one particular phenomenon relatively clear: that individual law teachers are helping, and mightily so, to fill the voids of knowledge created by the silence and ignorance that envelops today, as it has over the ages, the subject of sexuality and sexual orientation in American law, life, and society. Law teachers thus far have provided the impetus for the progression we have

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 218---------------------------------

witnessed during this first decade of effort.

Indeed, the very way(s) in which the contents and coverage of "primary" courses are designed show(s) that these courses and teachers are performing double duty; they are trying at once to carry forward two spheres of education and enlightenment. The nature and design of today's "primary" courses indicate that before these courses, and teachers, can engage the study of law relating to sexuality and/or sexual orientation, they first must accommodate, respond to, and overcome the silence and ignorance surrounding and occluding sexuality and sexual orientation in our cultural and educational environments. These courses (and teachers) likewise must respond to the misinformation, prejudice, and antipathy that (re)produces and accompanies this silence and ignorance. And, moreover, these courses and teachers also must address and negotiate the corresponding silence, ignorance, and malevolence (still) found specifically within legal culture, doctrine, and decisionmaking regarding sexuality and sexual orientation. These circumstances jointly necessitate and beckon the sort of innovative "primary" course that today's law teachers have designed and created: cross-disciplinary, trans-doctrinal, multi-methodological. These results thus show how individual interest, imagination, and initiative are combining to impel American legal education toward responsible coverage of this historically marginalized topic.

These findings also underscore, albeit indirectly, the importance of these pioneering courses and efforts to legal and social reform. By penetrating the consciousness, engaging the intellect, and touching the humanity of tomorrow's lawyers today, these courses in time may and should help to introduce informed and caring sensibilities into the beliefs, attitudes, decisions, and actions of American law and society. The challenge, then, is to ensure that these courses continue to expand and to prosper. However, and for the same reason, it is equally important to ensure that legal education on sexuality and/or sexual orientation also continues to be mainstreamed within broader or "related" law school courses. Continuing the recent expansion of coverage along both of these specialty and mainstream tracks is crucial to the accomplishment of twin educational goals, both in the short and long term: ensuring the dissemination of current information widely and contextually, as it arises in related fields or settings, and also guaranteeing the opportunity for in-depth study of the particular subject.

These courses and efforts in turn suggest three areas of concentrated work in the next few years regarding this field of American legal education. The first of these applies both to "primary" and "related" courses. The second applies specifically to "primary" courses and the third specifically to "related" courses. Jointly, the three effectively issue a call for a second decade of success in the continuing incorporation of these issues into the American law school experience.

The first of these areas is making sure that both "primary" and "related" courses keep up to date with the burgeoning literature of legal studies and scholarship relating to sexuality and/or sexual orientation. This effort is critical because the field of sexuality and sexual orientation within the law is moving quickly and expanding greatly. Keeping track of these developments is especially important in part because it is especially difficult: the magnitude and pace of scholarly output is challenging enough, but the relative lack of pre-existing information networks relating to law and sexuality/sexual orientation makes it additionally difficult to stay abreast of this emergent field. Yet doing so is the only way of ensuring that the delivery of education stays current with the production of knowledge. It is an effort that cannot falter if these courses and teachers are to succeed in the long term.

The second of these areas is expanding the range of source materials for "primary" courses specifically. The handful of books introduced in the past couple of years, and presently being used in some of these courses, clearly have gone a long way toward alleviating the complete lack of standardized materials that previously existed. These books clearly have responded to the market's needs, and additionally have helped facilitate the cross-disciplinary, trans-doctrinal nature of today's courses. Their creativity thus points the way toward the crafting of (one or more) cutting-edge casebook(s) on this subject that build(s) on their strengths while enlarging the universe of options and approaches available to teachers and students. The amplification and diversification of readily available course materials is

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 219---------------------------------

necessary not only to accommodating the recent and ongoing proliferation of ideas and knowledge at the intersection of law and sexuality/sexual orientation, but also to enriching the pedagogical and substantive range of "primary" courses in their second decade of operation.

The third of these areas in need of concentrated work during the coming years is finding ways to further the inclusion and integration of sexuality and sexual orientation issues specifically within "related" courses. Of course, one key way of doing so is to make the need for such inclusiveness more widely and deeply appreciated among teachers of "related" courses, and then to provide them with ready means of filling this understood need; i.e., we need to generate and circulate appropriate sources or materials that readily can be adopted and incorporated into the "related" course(s). The progress already made during the past decade again provides a solid point of departure for such efforts because the (re)design of "related" courses that already have been made inclusive can point the way for others to do likewise: as with the "primary" courses, we need to disseminate and improve the ideas, experience, and insights of the past ten years for the next ten years with respect to the "related" courses.38

In sum, this update shows that the stirrings documented by Gene Schultz starting ten years ago continue to grow in number and vitality. Without doubt, this span of time has been a decade of unprecedented and critical growth. But in some ways, perhaps, the coming years represent even greater opportunities, and challenges: the coming years will determine whether this decade of initial gains is only a beginning or already a plateau. For better or worse, the coming years will see the development and maturation, or the stagnation and retrenchment, of a discipline still in its infancy.

Those of us interested in ensuring the former and foreclosing the latter therefore should embark on conscious collaborations in the improvement of our materials and methods. In the short run, these efforts can begin with the ongoing and informal use of the "teachsex" Internet discussion list mentioned above to raise and discuss issues of common interest or concern on an everyday, informal, and continuing basis.39 This continuous exchange and discussion of information can be further informed and motivated by periodic gatherings at increased programs, panels, and conferences on the subject, such as the one being planned and scheduled in conjunction with this year's AALS meeting in San Antonio.40 Obviously, it takes collective will, time, and energy to create and sustain these tools of learning and teaching; it takes group commitment and involvement to plan and conduct such events and communication. But sharing ideas, knowledge, plans, and materials, is how we can continue both to consolidate and expand the progress of our first decade. With these means and networks of discourse increasingly in place, today's teachers increasingly can invigorate each others' imagination, deepen each others' knowledge, and, over time, mutually enhance our collective success toward the meaningful inclusion of education on sexuality and sexual orientation into the American law school experience. Hopefully, we will do so.

My thanks go to the many faculty and staff members at various schools that cooperated in the compilation of data for this project. Special thanks go to Jane Schacter for her helpful comments on an earlier draft of the article. The findings reported in this article could not have been finalized without the tireless support of faculty secretaries Sandra Murray, Mary-Ellen Norvell, and Sonia Smith, and of research assistants Edward R. Miley and Stefany Tewell. Likewise, Barbara Glennan, Mary Lou Mitchell, and Raleigh Moody helped to create the "teachsex" discussion list on the Internet that is discussed in this article. My thanks go to them as well. All errors or shortcomings found below are entirely mine.

2. See infra notes 12 to 28 and accompanying text.

3. Course classifications are based on a combination of information, including: where available, course syllabi and/or descriptions, course titles, and anecdotal, personal, or telephonic data. As the description suggests, "primary" courses concentrate specifically and

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 220---------------------------------

directly on the study of sexuality and/or sexual orientation legal issues. To some extent, designation of a course as "primary" is necessarily subjective, but is usually obvious in light of the course information mentioned above. The designation of a course as "related" to these issues is more uncertain. See infra note 4.

4. Course classifications are based on a combination of information. See supra note 3. As the description suggests, "related" courses are not focused on the study of sexuality and/or sexual orientation legal issues, but do provide some significant or substantial coverage of them. Determinations of "significant" or "substantial" are necessarily subjective, making these designations relatively less certain than the "primary" designations. See supra note 3.

5. However, as discussed below, teachers have begun to adopt as texts for these courses one or more of the several books published in recent years on this subject, and also have managed to converge in some key respects regarding course design and coverage. See, e.g., infra notes 30 to 33 and accompanying text.

6. What this article cannot purport to do is claim scientific precision, or even empirical accuracy, because the article conveys "reports from the field" gathered via the project, which are not susceptible to independent verification. In effect, this article takes a snapshot of the self-reported state of legal education on sexuality and/or sexual orientation today. And given the vagaries of faculty changes and curricular planning, this picture inevitably changes either slightly or significantly from year to year. However, this snapshot can and does help to provide important information on the situation and prospects for education on sexuality and/or sexual orientation that is being offered (or that could be offered) by American law schools, as elaborated in the following pages and tables.

7. The mailing included "Fee Paid" schools. A copy of the school questionnaire is appended to the end of this article (and tables) as "Appendix A."

This meeting was only partially devoted to the purpose of bringing together teachers of these courses, and therefore not all of these attendees were there for this particular purpose.

12. See Table 2, infra, which reports on courses (and teaching faculty) devoted "primarily" to sexuality and/or sexual orientation legal issues.

13. See Table 3, infra, which reports the courses (and teaching faculty) "related" to sexuality and/or sexual orientation legal issues. It additionally should be emphasized at this point that these results are not the main concern of the project, but are presented nonetheless in order to supplement the results regarding "primary" courses and coverage. Consequently, it also should be noted that "related" courses may be under-reported in this survey to the extent that

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 221---------------------------------

schools with "primary" courses may not have included "related" courses in their survey responses whereas schools without "primary" courses would tend to do so. If so, the total number of courses would be higher than 112, though the total for "primary" courses would remain at 48.

20. See Table 2, infra, reporting information, including enrollment figures, for "primary" courses.

21. See Table 1, infra, reporting Overall Results.

22. The totals for the figures presented in the Summary Table may vary in some categories because some courses are taught by different faculty members in different years, and sometimes for different amounts of academic credit, or because the scheduling intervals vary periodically, or because some courses are taught with another faculty member, or because some faculty members teach multiple classes concurrently. In each of these circumstances, individual courses and/or teachers may be "counted" more than once.

23. See Table 2, infra, for the enrollment figures of "primary" courses reported by the various schools.

24. See Schultz, supra note 14 at 135.

25. This continuing but slowing growth may indicate that the relatively "easy" progress has been achieved in the past decade, and that the progress to be made in the next decade may be more difficult.

26. Precise numbers for faculty are not provided here because shifting circumstances create numerical discrepancies that may lead to statistical confusion. See generally supra note 21.

27. But, again, this progress is mixed and, at best, cause only for cautious optimism because heterosexism, whether conscious or unconscious, still pervades American legal education at all levels. One telling indicator is that the unofficial (and hence confidential) mailing list of the AALS Section on Gay and Lesbian Legal Issues is about four times as extensive as the official (and hence public) mailing list. This disparity strongly suggests that many persons in legal academia today still feel compelled to "play it safe" when it comes to issues of sexuality and/or sexual orientation.

28. Though it was impracticable to publish all of the actual syllabi, the faculty providing them have agreed to share them with others who teach, or who are interested in teaching, these courses. If you teach in this area, or are preparing to do so, you can obtain a (free) copy of the set by contacting the author.

29. This assessment is based entirely (and subjectively) on the author's review and comparison of the submitted syllabi, which of course are not necessarily representative of

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 223---------------------------------

other courses devoted to this subject.

30. These nine courses are: Mary Anne Bobinski's course on Special Topics in Discrimination Law: Sexual Orientation, at the University of Houston Law Center; Dan Danielsen's course on Law, Sex & Identity, at Harvard University Law School; Ruth Harlow's course on Sexuality & the Law, at Brooklyn Law School; Jon W. Davidson with Christine Littleton's course on Sexual Orientation & the Law, at the University of California- Los Angeles School of Law; Stephanie Ridder's course on Sexuality & the Law, at George Washington University National Law Center; Vincent Samar's course on Sexual Orientation & the Law, at Chicago-Kent College of Law, Illinois Institute of Technology; Jon W. Davidson's course on Sexual Orientation & the Law, at Loyola Law School in Los Angeles; Jane Scarborough course on Sexual Orientation & the Law, at Northeastern University School of Law; Jane Schacter's course on Sexual Orientation & the Law, at the University of Wisconsin Law School; and, Michele Zavos's course on Sexual Orientation & the Law, at American University Washington College of Law. The Rubenstein book is a compilation of various cross-disciplinary materials, and in this way represents the pre-packaged set of readings that most closely approximates the materials that seem generally preferred by faculty members currently teaching these courses. For a review of this book, see Jane S. Schacter, Poised at the Threshold: Sexual Orientation, Law, and the Law School Curriculum in the Nineties, 92 MICH. L. REV. 1910 (1994). In addition, two of these courses report adoption of a second required text: Dan Danielsen's syllabus reports the use of The Lesbian and Gay Studies Reader (H. Abelove, M. Barale, D. Halperin eds. 1993)), and Vincent Samar's syllabus reports the use of The Right to Privacy: Gays, Lesbians, and the Constitution (1991), authored personally by Samar.

31. These two courses are: Craig W. Christensen's course on Law & Sexual Orientation, at Southwestern University School of Law, and Arthur Leonard's course on Sexuality & the Law, at New York Law School. The Leonard book is closest in nature to a traditional casebook in that it is organized around the presentation of various court rulings regarding sexuality and/or sexual orientation, with accompanying notes.

32. These two courses are: Barbara J. Cox's courses on Sexual Orientation & the Law, at California Western School of Law and at the University of San Diego School of Law. Robson's book is an exploration of lesbian life under law and an exposition of lesbian legal theory. The Harvard Law Review is a survey of legal issues pertaining to sexual orientation in various social contexts. D'Emilio's book is a historical account of gay and lesbian self- grouping in urban centers from World War II to the 1970s.

33. This course is Ruthann Robson's course Sexuality & the Law, at (CUNY) City University of New York School of Law at Queens College. The Freedman and D'Emilio book is a historical account of the ways in which human sexualities have been understood and regulated throughout American society over the years.

38. The conferences that SALT has sponsored on the inclusion of sex, race, class, and sexual orientation in mainstream courses such as contracts or torts serve as a possible model for

---------National Journal of Sexual Orientation Law, Volume 1--------- -------------------------------END PAGE 224---------------------------------

similar efforts with respect to "related" courses like employment law, family law or health law. Additionally, the Curriculum Project founded at Stanford Law School in 1990 by interested students and faculty also serves as a possible model for these efforts. The Curriculum Project compiled materials into a book titled Beyond the Casebook, which provided easy-to-use supplementary materials on sex, race, class, and sexual orientation to supplement first-year courses like contracts and civil procedure.
