Description
The purpose of this seminar is to provide a theoretical framework and reflective space for 2L and 3L students to deepen their understanding of rural law, ethics, and practical issues they encounter in their externship placements. It aims to complement the hands-on externship experience with academic inquiry and discussion, enriching students’ overall learning and professional development. The LAW 409: Rural Legal Externship Seminar is designed to run concurrently with the Rural Legal Externship. It may include guest lectures from experts in rural law, workshops on specialized topics and sessions focused on developing professional skills such as negotiation and advocacy. The seminar will also provide a forum for students to present their experiences, challenges, and successes from their externships, fostering a collaborative and supportive learning environment. This course counts as the Juris Doctor seminar class program requirement.
