Faculty Workshops

The Faculty Scholarship and Teaching Workshop and Brownbag Lunch Workshop are a series of weekly lunches held throughout the academic year. These sessions provide opportunities for presentation and discussion of current research and works-in-progress by members of the law school's full-time faculty and occasionally by scholars visiting from other institutions.

The spring 2009 Faculty Scholarship and Teaching Workshops will be held from 12:30 to 1:45 p.m. in the Zief Library Terrace Room; brownbag lunches for fall 2009 have been combined with the scholarship and teaching workshops.
