The article stems from and describes such ongoing projects at Seattle University School of Law, where several hundred first-year law students have worked on such projects so far. We have partnered with lawyers at organizations like the National Employment Law Project, the ACLU of Washington, and Northwest Justice Project, to come up with live issues that they would like to have researched, and they received the best student work product from each class. The partner organizations have used the students’ work in several ways, including bringing successful impact litigation, preparing amicus briefs, and lobbying for legislative changes. These projects have increased our students’ understanding of the importance of legal research and writing, have motivated our students to improve their work product, and have helped the students gain a different perspective than they often see within the first-year curriculum. The article contextualizes these projects within the traditional legal writing curriculum and the Carnegie Report’s recommendations that law schools join lawyering professionalism and legal analysis from the beginning of law school. The article also draws on research into student engagement, including the Law School Survey of Student Engagement. The article discusses the literature regarding somewhat similar collaboration between legal writing and clinical faculty within the law school; these projects are complementary, but they have fewer timing challenges, are less resource-intensive for the law school, and they provide an opportunity to connect the law school with lawyers from community partner organizations. Finally, the article offers some concrete practical solutions to potential challenges in implementing these projects, including making sure that core legal writing objectives are met through the projects and how to teach the projects effectively to first-year students.","PeriodicalId":39591,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Legal Education","volume":"62 1","pages":"586"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2012-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67818599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The field of animal law, like other fields of study, does not have a uniform philosophical point of view, but rather, is taught from numerous diverse and compelling vantage points. For purposes of this article, however, we will focus on those academics, practitioners, and students in the field who view animal law’s development as one means to enhance animal protection by fostering discussion and debate over society’s treatment of animals. Unless otherwise indicated, the term “animal law” in this article will be synonymous with those in the field who seek, through the legal system, additional protections for and more compassionate treatment of animals.","PeriodicalId":39591,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Legal Education","volume":"60 1","pages":"209"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2011-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71037339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The course, which debuted in 1991, engages first year students in problem solving and client-centered decision-making, along with traditional legal research, writing, and analysis skill in context. Students are placed into \"firms\" representing parties in a year-long simulated legal dispute. They participate in client interviewing, fact investigation, discovery, alternative dispute resolution, oral advocacy, research, writing, analysis, and drafting in the course of representing a \"client\". At the same time, students are introduced to the legal system, ethics and values of the profession in context as they begin to form their professional identities.","PeriodicalId":39591,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Legal Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"96-115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2010-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67728719","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After an introduction (Section I), Section II defines globalization and puts our definition into the specific perspective of the current economic crisis. Our assumption is that if the current crisis is altering some of the globalization components, this process will continue. This leads to our vision of the globalized lawyer (section III). This vision will very much relate to the issue of personal identity and legal certainty in a multijuralist world. We will then very much reckon on the concept of “jurisdiversity”. Hence the characteristics of legal education will derive from this context (section IV). Section V will then present the different innovations in legal education that have been devised and implemented at Paris West University at Nanterre since the 1980s and which spread all over French Law Schools.","PeriodicalId":39591,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Legal Education","volume":"61 1","pages":"455"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2010-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67731806","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Supplementing traditional domestic materials with studies of international, transnational, and comparative law is indeed a solution. But what is the problem?

Shepherd","doi":"10.2139/SSRN.263211","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/SSRN.263211","url":null,"abstract":"Economic analysis demonstrates that, continuing from its intentionally racist beginnings in the 1920s, the American Bar Association's system for accrediting law schools excludes most African-Americans from the legal profession, while allowing whites to enter. The discriminatory impact of ABA accreditation takes two forms. First, the ABA accreditation standards inflict academic racism. The standards impose academic requirements that African-Americans tend to lack, eliminating most schools that would serve average African-Americans. For example, the ABA generally denies accreditation to any school for which the average LSAT score is below 143. The average LSAT score for African-Americans is 142, compared to 152 for whites. The ABA's requirements of high undergraduate grades and high bar-pass rates are similarly discriminatory. Second, ABA accreditation imposes financial racism. The accreditation requirements cause law schools' costs and tuition levels to more than double. Because African-Americans have far lower average incomes than whites, the requirements make law school affordable only for whites, not for most African-Americans. Affirmative action and the availability of student loans counteract only a small part of the accreditation system's discriminatory impacts. Elimination of both accreditation and the bar exam would integrate the profession and provide many other benefits, while producing few harms.","PeriodicalId":39591,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Legal Education","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2001-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68232275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
