👀I'm just thrilled to have all these great legal historians @umichlaw this semester! It's going to be great.
We're so excited to announce this semester's line-up for the @UMichLaw #LegalHistory Workshop. Join us if you're on campus!
The CFP for the Michigan Juniors Scholars Conference is now available. Submissions are due 1/5.
This is always a fantastic event @UMichLaw each year. Junior scholars in all fields should apply!

This academic year, I'm teaching a mini-seminar called, "What do professors do in the summer?" I'm excited for us to chat and chart paths.
What articles, posts, etc. should we read as we consider (legal) academic career paths? Anyone know of similar courses elsewhere?
I'm interested in a broad range of readings as prompts for us to consider. For example, one that comes to mind is @lisareneepruitt's "How You Gonna' Keep Her Down on the Farm." Another is the annual entry level hiring report from @PrawfsBlawg.
Great review from @saramayeux over @IReadJotwell right in time ➡️ @SeanVanatta gives a lunch talk here @UMichLaw today at noon on his new book, Plastic Capitalism.

What do we miss when we rush to fix rural access to justice by simply adding more attorneys? Our latest digest shares @MicheleStatz's findings when approaching the problem through the "felt understanding of the particularities of a place." ruralreconcile.org/ruralrevi…

Always exciting to see my students published. I had the pleasure of having Sam Shaw in my #RuralLaw seminar this semester @UMichLaw. Read his JOTWELL, "Localizing Bail Reform: Rural Montana and Beyond," for @IReadJotwell is available here. Take a look! crim.jotwell.com/localizing-…..
I'm so grateful that @IowaLawFarrell was able to zoom into the class session on rural lawyering and access to justice! It's been a really fun semester in the seminar, and this was a real highlight!!
