The Law Teacher Thingie
I'm posting an announcement from Prof. Harris re teaching.
***
Thinking about a career in law teaching? Planning to go “on the market” this fall or the next? If you are a Boalt Hall alum and answered “yes” to one or both questions, please send an email to Professor Angela Harris, aharris-at-law-dot-berkeley-dot-edu under the subject heading “Law Teaching.”
Boalt’s Academic Placement Committee (Professors Angela Harris - chair; Professor David Gamage; Professor Melissa Murray; and Professor Eric Talley) offers several kinds of services, collectively titled the “Boalt Boot Camp” (BBC) to its graduates planning careers in law teaching. For Boalt alums planning to go to the American Association of Law Schools (AALS) hiring conference this fall, there will be an evening workshop July 23, 6-8 p.m. in room 121 at Boalt, on the mysteries of the Faculty Appointments Register (FAR) form that must be submitted in order to attend the conference. For both those definitely going on the market this year, and those who would like to pursue a teaching career in the next few years, there will be a day-long workshop August 22, from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. in the Dean’s Seminar Room at Boalt, on how to get a tenure-track academic job in law. This workshop includes information on post J.D. fellowships to prepare for teaching careers, what to expect at the AALS conference, job talk do’s and don’ts, and more – including a mock job talk and mock interview in front of Boalt faculty, who will participate and then offer constructive suggestions. Finally, for those contemplating a career in academia whether now or later, Professor Angela Harris runs a BBC listserve where you can find links to blogs on legal academia, job openings, advice from Boalt alums now in teaching, and more.
If you are interested in any or all of these services, please send an email to Professor Angela Harris, aharris-at-law-dot-berkeley-dot-edu. In your email, please let us know (1) your year of graduation; (2) your research and teaching interests; (3) what year you plan to apply for law school teaching jobs; and (4) which of the BBC events and services you are interested in.
