This conference is open to all junior faculty (less than seven years of full-time teaching experience at a law school), including fellows and VAPs.
The conference is designed to provide a space for junior faculty to engage with their peers in a friendly environment.
The conference will have three components:
(1) substantive paper presentations, organized by topic, with Q&A:
(2) panels on law teaching careers (e.g., hiring, tenure and promotion, career advancement and life at law schools); and
(3) time to socialize and network.
We invite participants and papers from all legal areas. Papers are not required for participation, but preference may be given to participants with papers if space is limited.
