I count
35 legal events this week. Professors Neil Hamilton and Jerry Organ will be leading a very interesting seminar at the University of St. Thomas on 2/17:
Symposium on Professional Identity Formation in Legal Education and Beyond in the Last 25 Years.
The symposium is being hosted by the University of St. Thomas Holloran Center for Ethical Leadership in the Professions and co-sponsored by the Center for the Study of the Legal Profession at the Georgetown University Law Center, Parris Institute for Professional Formation at the Pepperdine University School of Law, Center for Ethical Formation and Legal Education at the Regent University School of Law, and the ABA Standing Committee on Professionalism.
The symposium will look back at developments in professional formation within legal education since the MacCrate Report and Educating Lawyers and Best Practices while also looking at professional identity formation efforts in the military and in medicine.
The event includes a Saturday workshop which isn't on our calendar as it's invite only. But, the Friday event is open to the public and CLE credit has been applied for. Check out the
agenda.
The big challenge this week might be deciding what to do with your noon hour. Sixteen of 35 events take place over lunch including a pair of tech events at the MSBA: Barron Henley covers tools to create and manage complex documents on
2/15and Marco Maggio tells us what law firms need to know about cybersecurity and compliance on
2/14.
Also, there are 4 trainings this week for new Local Rule 5.6 which changes the procedures for filing sealed documents in civil cases. As I mentioned last week, these are filling up very fast.
