I gave a presentation in
Indianapolis in July at the 2008
biennial conference of the Legal Writing Institute about teaching legal
writing online. My presentation, with the slides in several formats and supporting resources, can be found
here.
I gave a
presentation in New York about laptops in the classroom at the 2008
American Association of Law Schools meeting; it was part of a debate
about whether they should be banned. An overview of my
contribution to this program, together with the slides, can be found
here.
I have created a new page that contains links to all my student
evaluations since I started teaching full time at DU. You will find it
here.
Community Service
"The price of greatness is responsibility"
- Winston Churchill
It is my belief that lawyers have a special obligation to contribute
their time and skills to the community in ways that are meaningful
to them and helpful to others. Over the years I have served on
many boards (you can download my CV from the
About Me page for a
complete list). Provided below are links to organizations
where I am currently or have been recently active.
