As David Van Zandt leaves Northwestern Law after 25 years of serving as dean and professor to become president of The New School in New York, join alumni and friends in bidding him farewell. Regional events will be held in the following cities:
Mary Schapiro, the 29th Chairman of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, will be the featured speaker at the Brodsky Family Northwestern Fund Lecture on November 9. Appointed in 2009, Schapiro is the first woman to serve as the agency's chair. This event is free and open to the public.
A panel of attorneys will discuss the various legal issues that entrepreneurs need to consider as they start and grow a new business. The panel will be led by moderator Craig C. Bradley, Lecturer of Business Law at the Kellogg School of Management and Partner at Wildman Harrold. Panelists include Northwestern Law alumni Esther Barron JD '95, Director of the Small Business Opportunity Center within the Bluhm Legal Clinic at Northwestern Law and James Faier JD-MBA '90, a registered patent attorney with Faier & Faier. Register here.
The Center for Career Strategy & Advancement is searching for alums who would like to volunteer for the Mock Interview Program. The mock interview program is designed to educate our students about the legal interviewing process. As an interviewer, you would interview students one-on-one for 20 minutes and then provide 10 minutes of feedback. The program targets our 1L class but is open to all students at Northwestern Law, including LLMs, 2Ls, and 3Ls. Mock interviews will take place Monday-Friday during the week of November 7, 2010, at the Law School. If you would like to participate in this fun and rewarding experience, please contact Puja Singh Patel, associate director of JD counseling.
The 38th Annual Securities Regulation Institute will be held January 19-21, 2011, in Coronado, California. We have reserved space for alumni to attend at a special discounted price of $1200 (regular tuition is $1500). Register online and enter "alumni" in the discount code box upon check-out.
