Inside the Classroom: Contracts With Professor George Geis

UVA Law professor George Geis discusses issues surrounding offers and acceptance in contract law with his 1L Contracts class. Taking place early in students’ first semester at law school, this session examined questions surrounding what exactly constitutes an offer of a contract, and what constitutes an acceptance of that offer. Geis illustrated these concepts using historical examples of advertising offers. (University of Virginia School of Law, March 2, 2020)

Excellent class. Coming from a country with a tradition of Roman Law ("Civil Law"), it helped me a lot to understand the approach to contracts in other legal systems. Thanks for sharing.

[aaronerskine]

thank you for sharing these videos with the world. i enjoy the concept of law school, but would not go. i would love to audit classes just for the enjoyment of learning. i would even take these classes if you offered to non law school students just to expand my mind. please share more classes

In the 1st advertisement, it could be contended that the value was specific enough to expect at least a coat worth the value of the cheapest coat, "to $100" in the store on the date of the offer.

Prof Geis is a brilliant professor. I wished he would have dived a little deeper into consideration. Contract formation comprise of offer, acceptance, and consideration. If these are met, then a binding valid K exist between the parties. Of course there are performance issues, breach, and discharge/remedies associated with contracts as well.

Can't say about US, but in Europe Uber drivers enter into the contract with the passenger after the passenger gets into the car and the driver starts the engine. And actually, some drivers like to trick the rule: may keep the car engine off, first ask 'where are you going?' and then accept or refuse to drive you based on your answer.

The prof mentioned a page number. Anyone know what text book is he refereing to? Thanks.
