My colleague Harry Flechtner, who performs locally as a bluegrass guitarist and bass player, has been serenading his Contracts students for years and years. A couple of years ago, he "released" a single about commercial law -- with original words and music. It's the CISG song. <a href="http://www.law.pitt.edu/academics/programs/cile/cisgsongpage.php" rel="nofollow">You can listen here.</a> Tom Pettit is not alone.

Henchy</i></a>, a case about a merger deal involving the Greater New York Savings Bank. For no good reason, I started to sing the GNYSB jingle, which I remembered from radio commercials years ago. My poor students thought I had totally lost it! I plan to do it again in Employment Law this Spring, but can't decide between "Workin' in a Coal Mine" and "9 to 5".
