This course provides students with a "deep dive" into selected areas of law practice so that they can more fully appreciate the character of distinctive practice areas, using readings, discussion, and interviews. The course also helps students explore their own values, and helps them develop crucial lawyering skills not generally addressed in other courses (including oral communication, collaboration, problem solving, strategic planning, self-assessment and reflection.) Parallel sections meet simultaneously at UNC Law School and Univ of Cinncinnati Law School. It involves in-depth collaboration with the Ctr for Creative Leadership and leading lawyers in NC and Ohio. Students are assigned in pairs and teams to collaborate virtually.
