TurningPoint Clickers
A TurningPoint response card (“clicker”) is required for this course. The clicker will be used to take attendance and to make the class discussion more interactive while increasing your substantive knowledge and retention of the material. New or used clickers may be purchased at the Bookstore or online https://ucc.asu.edu/clickers/. Please register your clicker at https://student.turningtechnologies.com. You will need the device ID (located on the back of the clicker) to register. Once you have entered your information, you will need my email address frank.long@asu.edu and then you will need to select the appropriate section from the list of available courses. Be sure to click all the way through COMPLETE REGISTRATION to make sure your clicker is registered correctly. Attendance and other clicking will begin with the first meeting. Please be prepared.

This course’s objective is to provide the student with a practical, business-oriented understanding of trademark and unfair competition law. The course will cover the acquisition, maintenance, and enforcement of both registered and unregistered trademark rights. The course will also address trademark dilution and cyber-squatting. Other Internet issues, right of publicity, false endorsement, and federal deceptive advertising may be included, if time permits. Litigation practices and issues will receive particular emphasis. At a minimum, the student should emerge from this course with a thorough understanding of why a trademark and unfair competition practice is one of the most fun a lawyer can choose!
