Sessions Description

  • Join the editors of the Journal of Legal Education for a brief update on journal activities and then hear from a panel of experts selected from a call for papers. The panel presentation follows a national convening that the AccessLex Institute and AALS hosted in September in Philadelphia  (The Access Imperative: Strengthening Legal Education and Challenges). The panelists will critically engage with the theme of access and inclusion in legal education, and the panel will include presentations from a range of perspectives. This program should be of interest to those wishing to learn more about access and inclusion, and how access is a core responsibility of legal education and necessary to meet the needs of the profession.
