In my view, many debates about law school reform and innovations are impacted, at least indirectly, by generational dynamics. Consequently, I found this new piece on SSRN by Gregory Bowman, titled "The Comparative and Absolute Advantages of Junior Law Faculty:...

Here's an oldie but a goodie when you want to show people when *not* to
connect devices and drives to the Internet:

Does anyone use Gmail’s educational offer for free
email and Google apps to students?

I was at first amused and then amazed by the terrific law-school-selection advice to be found in this great column by Clay Travis at CBS Sports. Though the first 7 points are cheeky, the final 10 are remarkably insightful about...

Don't get me wrong, I love cats (is my wife reading this?), I just
think that sometimes they can be a little too, er, independent-minded.
I've never had a cat defend me from a burglar ... come to think of
it, never had a dog do that either.

I know people have asked about online student evaluations in the past. I
would be interested in updated information, and hearing about your
experiences in doing so. If you use online evaluations,

1. what percentage of students have participated?

2. do you offer any sort of carrot or stick to the students, like
incentives to induce participation, or withholding grades until the evals
are completed?

3. who at your school handles the process? IT, Administration, or
student organizations?

4. do you use student evaluations as part of the retention and tenure
process?

5. if your school has considered going to online evaluations and rejected
doing so, or tried the online version and given it up, we would be
interested in your reasoning.

Thanks. I would be happy to compile the results for the list.

Hi all,

I'm curious - how many of you are at a law school (or parent institution) that's a member of InCommon (http://www.incommonfederation.org/)?

...Trying to get a sense of who we could potentially link up with if/when it's determined that a collaboration-friendly electronic resource of ours would benefit from federated access (thinking of wikis & blogs in particular).

Many thanks,

Just wondering if there are any law journals out there that are putting
back issues on line and charging a fee for them. All of the colleges I
looked at that had journal articles available for download gave them
away as free pdf files or told people to go to Hein/JSTOR/Westlaw/Lexis.

If you do have journals selling the articles, what are you using to take
the money? Do you support it in house or do you use a third party host
with a shopping cart already to go?

Thanks,

This really hurt to watch. I still have to watch out that I don't
cough or sneeze and guffaws are right out.
