Social Enterprise: Innovation in the Information Society --- Social Enterprise roughly means making the world better through the efforts of for-profits or non-profits and broadly covers problems in the areas of poverty, health, education, the environment, and other social issues, such as treating women and children better. We will pay significant attention to how companies working at the economic bottom of the pyramid in the developing world and the West can develop successful businesses, though we will focus on other opportunities as well. We will see how many innovations in this area embrace new business approaches supported by information and communication technology (ICT).

If you've ever wondered about American Indian tribes and how and where they fit into the larger fabric of America (other than their respective placements on the maps in West Hall), I will be teaching a 3-credit Federal Indian Law at the law school this fall and would like to invite SI students to enroll.
