Volunteers Sought for 2015 Law School Professionalism Orientations


The Louisiana State Bar Association’s (LSBA) Committee on the Profession is seeking lawyers and judges to lead discussion groups in the next round of law school professionalism orientations in August. (See schedule below.) The orientations, conducted at each of the state’s four law schools, are a permanent part of the orientation process for entering law students. The committee is asking lawyers and judges to return to their alma mater or to any of the schools to help give back part of what the profession has given them by dedicating a half-day of their time.

Law School Professionalism Orientations
Southern -  Thursday, Aug. 13, 2015 • 10 a.m.
LSU - Friday, Aug. 14, 2015 • 2 p.m.
Loyola -  Monday, Aug. 17, 2015 • 5:45 p.m.
Tulane  - Tuesday, Aug. 18, 2015 • 10:15 a.m.

The purpose of the program is to introduce the concept of professionalism to first-year students. The committee will provide leaders with a list of hypothetical situations, including annotations and suggested questions. Pair up with a friend or classmate to co-lead a group of aspiring lawyers in a practical discussion of lawyer professionalism.
