    Many law schools have diversified their portfolios of post-graduate programs as we have acclimated to the changing JD landscape and identified interest among various groups of prospective students through the development of post-JD and non-JD programs. This session will discuss challenges and experiences of these programs from the perspective of law schools’ deans, faculty, administrators, and students. How can we best serve our new and expanding law and non-law, international and domestic student populations, including in light of the ABA standard of acquiescence? Which specializations are most popular, what are the demographics of these students, what are their career plans and aspirations?

    Business meeting at program conclusion.
