Indian Gaming II continued an exploration of the subject matter began in Indian Gaming I. Whereas Indian Gaming I was more of a survey course, in Indian Gaming II we were able to get &#8216;into the weeds&#8217; of the topic. Specifics of auditing requirements and management contractual issues featured but we also delved into environmental laws and even regulatory efforts related to human trafficking. Professor Hoenig was perhaps the most professional of any of the excellent professors I&#8217;ve had at ASU. His opinions never entered the equation. This definitely was a course of law, not politics. That&#8217;s important because gambling as a topic and as an industry is very controversial, and the course could have developed in a different way.\u201d<br \/><br \/>During the spring semester, Beetso had the opportunity to teach his first full-time courses: Indian Gaming and Indian Law and Taxation. \u201cThe opportunity to teach these classes hopefully provided more targeted education for our students in these niche areas of practice,\u201d said Beetso. \u201cA strong understanding of Indian gaming law and tax law and policy as applied to Indian tribes can go a long way for future attorneys working on behalf of tribal governments.\u201d<br \/><br \/>For 2L <strong>Maryam Salazar<\/strong>, she liked the hands-on, practical approach to learning.

Since then, Professor Beetso has offered me helpful advice, words of encouragement, and initiated connections with other professionals in his network currently working on projects of interest to me. While my experience is in no way unique (given that he provides each of his students such guidance and support) it is simply a testament to his commitment to help support and guide the next generation of advocates committed to serving tribal communities. I consider myself fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn from an advocate and educator as passionate and dedicated to serving his community as Professor Beetso.\u201d<br \/><br \/><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/ilp\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/9\/files\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Spruhan-article-Tribal-Labor-and-Employment-law.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13845 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/ilp\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/9\/files\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Spruhan-article-Tribal-Labor-and-Employment-law-233x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"193\" srcset=\"http:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/ilp\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/9\/files\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Spruhan-article-Tribal-Labor-and-Employment-law-233x300.png 233w, http:\/\/newsletters.asucollegeoflaw.com\/ilp\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/9\/files\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Spruhan-article-Tribal-Labor-and-Employment-law.png 554w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>Paul Spruhan<\/strong>, ASU Law\u2019s Faculty Associate and Assistant Attorney General for the Navajo Nation Department of Justice, <a href=\"https:\/\/image.reply.asu.edu\/lib\/fe3511717d64047f711674\/m\/2\/53d4f62f-a202-4007-9663-718ea24d48f9.pdf\">published<\/a> his article &#8220;Tribal Labor and Employment Law: The Evolution of the Navajo Preference in Employment Act&#8221; in the Arizona Attorney Magazine.
