In previous Arc of the Career Programs, we discussed how to leave the legal academy after a substantial law-teaching career. As a result, essays are being published in the Journal of the Legal Profession. Now, we elaborate upon the published essays and invite audience members to share their perspectives. We intend to create a written corpus to serve as a resource for faculty at both the beginning and end of their law school careers. At the beginning, faculty can garner insights regarding what worked well in the lives of their senior colleagues. At the close of someone’s academic career, a resource will exist for making better informed decisions. We invite attendees, especially those preparing to retire from the legal academy, to bring ideas and partial essay outlines to share.
