John David Nonhcutt. Focus: Sports Law Music, sports, film, television, theatre — five fields of entertainment that formed a major part of the entertainment law profession. The Entertainment Law Committee provided a forum for the discussion of these different fields and the laws affecting them, primarily through guest speakers experienced in the entertainment industry. Two former University football players, Earl Campbell and Alfred Jackson, visited the law school in January to talk at a sports roundtable discussion sponsored by the Committee. They discussed the transition from college to pro ball and gave their views on the NCAA regulations. The Committee also helped support the local arts community, through its on-going relationship with the Austin Lawyers and Accountants for the Arts, a local group that provided pro bono legal and accounting services to struggling artists.
