Bankruptcy -- An Overview
Bankruptcy law provides for the development of a plan that allows a debtor,
who is unable to pay his creditors, to resolve his debts through the division of
his assets among his creditors. This supervised division also allows the
interests of all creditors to be treated with some measure of equality. Certain
bankruptcy proceedings allow a debtor to stay in business and use revenue
generated to resolve his or her debts. An additional purpose of bankruptcy law
is to allow certain debtors to free themselves (to be discharged) of the
financial obligations they have accumulated, after their assets are distributed,
even if their debts have not been paid in full.

Personal Finance
Personal Finance deals with your own financial decisions. These decisions are important to all of us. They range from how much to put aside each paycheck to save for your retirement to how to buy a house. These financial decisions are decisions that everyone (even the non-finance major) makes. Unfortunately, many of us are making these decisions without the sound financial background that is needed. Rather we tend to take the advice of friends, family, or a financial professional who may have vastly different incentives than we do.

Summaries of Finance Papers
Disclaimer: The majority of these summaries are not author approved. They are basically for my own classroom and research use but will likely be useful to others as well. Of course, I recommend that for actual class usage as well as for citation in any research you read the actual article for yourself as well. (sorry about that!)

Financial Text Books
I am including this list for two reasons. One is that personally I wanted to see what was available and began investigating what text books were out there. Once I found out, I figured I might as well share the findings. The second reason is so that you can save some money.

Annual Finance Meetings and Conferences
Attending a conference is a great learning experience. That is true whether you are presenting your own work, discussing someone else's paper, or just attending to learn. Conferences are not cheap (often have $100 registration) but you can learn a great deal very quickly and also meet others in the field.
