This freewheeling environment runs counter to well established ethical guidelines for human research and to law professors' heightened moral duties as members of the Bar and the legal academy. In addition, it exposes students, law faculty, and the legal academy to risks arising out of the use of unregulated human experimentation in law schools. This is inimical to morally good practice. To remedy this ethical problem this article provides a set of guidelines for law professors who wish to ethically engage in empirical research using students as subjects.
