Marquette University Law School will host the Central Region Conference on the Teaching of Legal Research, Analysis, and Writing, "Climate Change: Alternative Sources of Energy in Legal Writing," on Friday, October 9th and Saturday, October 10th, 2009.
This year marks ten years of Central States Regional Conferences, and the conference committee is continuing the Central States tradition of a teaching-focused conference. This year there will be a special emphasis on ways to improve legal writing teaching with resources beyond the legal writing faculty, such as librarians, writing specialists, and doctrinal faculty.
A Scholars' Forum will take place in conjunction with the conference on Friday, October 9th. At the end of the Scholars' Forum and just before the welcome reception for the conference, attendees can participate in an hour-long discussion on getting published and giving effective presentations.
Watch for more details, coming soon!
