In an effort to create a sustained mode of communication between clinical legal education programs, and to develop an even stronger network of information sharing within the clinical legal education community, we have created a list service for clinic directors, and one for law clinicians.

If you are a clinic director, dean, administrator (broadly put, one charged with the overall management of one or several law clinics-whether externships, simulated courses, community-based, or in-house), or a law clinician, we hope that these list services will be useful.

The list service could be a mode of reaching out to others when dealing with systemic or day-to-day issues which impact our clinic programs and clinical education. For all of us, it can be a means of sharing data, asking and answering questions, making announcements, and the like. We see this list service as a complement to, not a substitute for, list services that now exist--in the sense that subscribers can share information or post questions which most specifically address management and operation of law clinics.

To Subscribe to the desired list service:

1 - Send a message which says "subscribe" in the body of the message to LawClinicDir-request@lists.washlaw.edu (for clinic directors, deans, or administrators); or LawClinic-request@lists.washlaw.edu (for law clinicians).

OR

2 - Visit this site and follow the instructions to subscribe to the clinic directors list; and for the law clinicians list, visit this site.

Many thanks to Joe Hewitt and Mark Folmsbee of Washburn for setting this up.
