Symposia

Future Ed Conference: Kickoff Event April 9–10, 2010

New Business Models for U.S. and Global Legal Education

Presented with the Institute for Information Law and Policy.

New York Law School and Harvard Law School are hosting a year-long contest of ideas about legal education. The goal is to come up with operational alternatives to the traditional law school business model and to identify concrete steps for the implementation of new designs. The kickoff event is a two-day conference for educators, employers, and regulators at New York Law School on April 9–10, 2010, to identify problems, innovations, and constraints, and to organize working groups to develop designs and strategies for implementation. Working groups will refine their ideas and reconvene for a second meeting at Harvard Law School on October 15-16, 2010. Final designs will be presented, with commentary, at New York Law School in April, 2011.
