For those who just can't get enough of law school, here's your chance to return. Each January, the University of Hawaii Law School holds its "J-Term" during which brings in legal scholars from across the nation (bet it's not too hard to convince a few lawprofs to spend mid-January in Honolulu) to teach on selected topics. And some of the lectures are open to the public.
Here are the details of this year's Saturday, January 11, 2014 public J-Term classes. If you are an "interested member of the community" (i.e., the public), you can attend. Among the topics are a couple that reach out and grab us:
- The Law of Elections, Democracy & Politics (Professor Richard Pildes, NYU Law), 3:00 - 5:00 p.m., Classroom 3.
- Construing the Hawaii Constitution: Criminal Procedure Protections (Justice Simeon Acoba, Supreme Court of Hawaii), 5:10 - 7:10 p.m.
We're going, for sure. The Law School is at 2515 Dole Street, in balmy Honolulu.
