CRS 1L Workshop: Classroom Dynamics

Wednesday, October 5, 2005
12pm to 1:30pm
Law 1314

Back by popular demand, this CRS workshop explores dynamics of racial discourse in the law school classroom.  This is an opportunity for 2nd and 3rd year students to share effective strategies for dealing with issues such as being called "testify" whenever race is discussed and for 1st year students to understand how and why the salience of race is ignored or rejected in most 1st year courses.  Students recieve a copy of "Towards a Race-Conscious Pedagogy in Legal Education,"  the highly useful article written by UCLA CRS Professor Kimberle Crenshaw about race in the law school classroom.
