Heidenreicht Introduction This is a guide for the first-year law student at William Mitchell College of Law (WMCL) who has the fortune or misfortune to be assigned to a section for which I am the Contracts professor. It is not meant to speak for any other professor at this law school or elsewhere; it reflects my personal quirks and peccadillos. Much of this may seem strange to some of you, but I assure you that it is serious in that you should follow the advice that I give in this monograph. When you are in a class that I am teaching, writing an exam paper for me, or dealing with me in person or by any other form of communication, remember this stuff and follow the advice. On the other hand, don't assume that other professors prefer that you act or talk in a way that might be appropriate when dealing with me. Here is my first bit of advice. Advice: Follow the instructions and take the advice of each professor; tailor your approach accordingly. Each of us has a different idea about what is the best way to do things. When you are dealing with Professor A, as far as you are concerned, what she has said is correct; if that differs from what Professor B has told you, for purposes of dealing with Professor A, Professor B is wrong-and vice versa. Note, however, the occasional exception mentioned below. t Professor Doug Heidenreich, a native of St. Paul, Minnesota, received a BA from the University of Minnesota in 1953. After service in the U.S. Army and some desultory employment, he graduated from William Mitchell College of Law in 1961. Following a brief, undistinguished period in practice, he returned to his alma mater where he has spent the last fifty-one years as a member of the full-time faculty, eleven of these years (1964-1975) being as dean of the institution. On June 30, 2014, he will become a Professor Manqu6. 1
