SOCIAL JUSTICE CONCENTRATION SEMINAR provides a common forum in which second-year students enrolled in the Social Justice Lawyering Concentration can deepen their understanding of social justice practice, interact with each other and with concentration faculty, and lay a foundation for taking maximum advantage of curricular and extracurricular opportunities to prepare for a career in social justice work. The course revolves around seminar discussions of assigned readings, short papers, and observations of social justice practitioners. Format will vary from year to year, with each year's class participating in developing its own curriculum and making suggestions for successor classes. Students will be graded on class participation and short papers. Enrollment in this seminar is mandatory for concentration students.
