November 6, 2011 Mark Curriden

Staff Reports 

(FT. WORTH) NOV. 6 — Every Monday and Friday, SMU Dedman Law School Professor Christopher H. Hanna stands before law students to discuss the basic theories, applications and history of tax law in the U.S. and around the world.

While few would consider tax law inspiring, the law students at SMU have named him their favorite teacher and lecturer eight times during his 21 years at the school. But it is Professor Hanna’s new job during the middle of the week that has his students buzzing this year.
