I'd Like to Dedicate This Post to John Steele

It's ok SMcGB, I have one in the wings for you too.

Join an Inn of Court for Next School Year.

Joining an American Inn of Court (http://www.innsofcourt.org/) is a terrific way to meet local judges and lawyers at once-per-month evening meetings during the school year, at which substantive presentations, role-playing, and other professional programs occur. We have eight slots for Boalt students next school year in The Earl Warren American Inn of Court in Oakland, for a very low cost. We probably can place a half dozen students with other local Inns. If you are interested in volunteering or just curious about the Inns, send an email to John Steele at john.steele@fr.com no later than March 24. If we have more interested students than slots, we'll conduct a lottery.
Also, for the 3Ls and alumns out there, any pearls of wisdom for the yougens who are about to join country club known as the California Bar? More broadly, since the theme of the comments lately have been to whine whine whine (I still have not e-mailed DO to get my ranking...for those too concerned that the curve may have gone to my head) I wonder if there are any suggestions from anyone out there about what Boalt can do curriculum-wise to improve, if anything.

As long as Prof. Steele is posting on this blog, would he mind giving us a post about his experiences with Tucker Maxx?

In general, I will post general messages here and let this remain a forum for the students. But if anyone wants to talk to me about some topic that interests them, just stop me in the hallway or see me after class or in Cafe Zeb.

Did I mention that American Inns of Court are a terrific opportunity? They are.

BTW, tonight we will have outside speakers on the ethics of death penalty defense work, at 6:20 pm, in room 105. All Boalt students are welcome. Lis Semel and Ty Alper, of Boalt will be there, as will Jason Clay of the Alameda County PD's office. (Note: no internet surfing during outside guest presentations!)
