Turtle Talk

Occasionally we’re contacted by law students and colleagues who practice in Indian law who are interested in becoming a law professor.    The process for breaking into the law teaching can be a bit mysterious for the uninitiated, but programs like the one below offer an excellent introduction.  This one is held in conjunction with the Third National People of Color Legal Scholarship Conference, and the program’s title is How to Enter the Legal Academy:  Pipeline Program.  Topics include preparing your CV, what goes on at the “meet market”, interviewing, handling call backs, fellowships and visitorships, writing law review articles, developing a research agenda and advice for late bloomers.  The program runs from 11 am – 3 pm on September 9, 2010 at Seton Hall, and registration is only $20.
