Rutgers-Camden Law Faculty Workshops Spring Semester 2012. All events begin on Monday at 12:30 in the Faculty Lounge unless otherwise noted The Rutgers-Camden Faculty Workshop series offers a collegial atmosphere in which local faculty and distinguished guests, many drawn from neighboring educational institutions in the Delaware Valley region, present works-in-progress and discuss contemporary legal issues. It enhances the intellectual life of the law school community and Camden campus by providing a forum for critical exchange across the disciplinary and topical boundaries that often separate scholars of the law. Attendees may also earn continuing legal education (CLE) credits in Pennsylvania for some of the sessions. Please contact Rand Rosenblatt (rrosenbl@camden.rutgers.edu), for more information. See Archive link for older presentations. Faculty and staff will need to log in to see more information on the presentation.
