Law Week Activities. The Student Bar Association has a great line-up of events for Law Week, starting with a Kick-Off Celebration (including the Dean's annual State of the Law School Address) on Monday, April 4 and culminating with the Barrister's Ball on Saturday, April 9. Click here for details.

Piper Lecture.
Faculty and students are encouraged to attend the 27th annual Kenneth M. Piper Memorial Lecture on Tuesday, April 5, at 11:30 am in the Auditorium. The program’s focus is “The Aging of the American Workforce.” The lecturer will be Dr. Sara Rix, Senior Policy Advisor to the AARP Foundation and one of the foremost experts on aging and the workforce. She will discuss such issues as whether employers will face labor shortages as the workforce ages that will prompt them to find ways to attract and retain older workers, whether available jobs will appeal to older workers and the legal and institutional barriers that older workers face. Commentary will be provided by David Kadue, a partner in the Los Angeles office of Seyfarth Shaw, and Shaun O’Brien, the Assistant Director of Public Policy for the AFL-CIO. Click here for details.

Summer 2005 Registration.
The Summer 2005 Registration Bulletin, including the Schedule of Classes and information about applying for Summer clinical programs, is available outside the third floor cafeteria. Online versions are also available on the Student Portal page (click on the Summer '05 link near the top), or by clicking here.

Registration for Summer classes will take place from Thursday, April 7 through Monday, April 11. You may register at any time during that period. To register, go to the Student Portal page and click on the Online Registration link. You can use any computer with Internet access, either inside or outside the Law School. Applications for Summer clinical programs are due by Tuesday, April 5.

After the end of the registration period, the registration requests will be processed according to each student's registration priority. In other words, registration will not be conducted on a first-come, first-served basis; as long as you register during the designated period, you will have an equal chance of being admitted to a class as other students within your registration priority group. Evening Division students have priority over Day Division students for Summer registration. Within divisions, registration priority is based on anticipated graduation date, with the earliest graduation date having the highest priority.

To learn what classes you have been admitted into, you must check the Online Registration site on or after Wednesday, April 13. Registering for a class during the initial registration period is no guarantee that you will be admitted to the class -- you must check the web site on or after Wednesday, April 13 to learn what classes you have been admitted to.
