I would draw your attention to AACSB Standard FD.5 on faculty qualifications which states that individuals holding the J.D. and who teach business law or legal environment of business courses fall within the category of doctoral degree-holders.

To Everyone and All:

        Several years ago I recall that the AACSB said that the juris doctorate
degree was the required terminal degree to teach business law in a business
school program.  Does anyone recall this?  If so, does anyone have a copy
of that statement and is a juris doctorate still required according to
their standards?

        Thanks for your help.  Regards,  Linnea
