Twelve law schools across the country are hosting LWI One-Day Legal Writing Conferences on one of the first two weekends in December. The Conferences are hosted by schools in every region of the country. They are great opportunities for first-time presenters as well as the seasoned legal writing, lawyering skills, and academic support professionals. Many locations include Academic Support as part of their theme: collaborating with ASP, preparing the academically unprepared law student, meeting the needs of different learners, and integrating legal writing and academic success, to name a few.
For more information about attending or presenting, please use the following link:
https://my.lls.edu/legalwritinginstituteonedayworkshops
The link includes information about the schools hosting, the themes for each school's conference, the date and the site coordinators.
For those interested in submitting a presentation proposal, it also includes an area to submit proposals and to rank the sites in order of your preference to participate. Proposals are due by Thursday, September 17, 2015 10:00 PM PST.
After you submit a proposal the information will be compiled and distributed to the site coordinators. The site coordinators will then invite those whose proposals fit well within their schedule to participate.
If you don't want to present but are interested in attending, registration will open soon after the proposal submission process is complete.
Send any questions about the link or proposal submission process to archerc@lls.edu, and questions about the specific locations to the site coordinators.
This is a great opportunity for ASP professionals to learn, share, and collaborate with colleagues at different schools across the county. I encourage you to consider submitting a presentation proposal.
