Invitation to submit for 2010 Education Guidebook
The education directors are calling all LLBs and JD's to submit a short piece (around 500 words) for the 2010 Education Guidebook.
Did a particular subject grab your attention this year? Is there something you would have really liked to know before starting it? Would you like to let everyone else know about it?
We need submissions for each core and optional subject for both the JD and LLB degrees. We are looking for submission that describe the subject in enough detail to help someone choose their subjects, but perhaps not enough to scare them off!
We would love all submissions by the end of november so we can start putting the guidebook together.
And as an extra incentive: all submissions that get published go in the running for a $50 book voucher.
