Integrating "Alternative" Dispute Resolution Into Bankruptcy: As Simple (And Pure) As Motherhood And Apple Pie?, Nancy A. Welsh

Outcomes & Assessment: A Golden Opportunity For Lrw Professors, David I.C. Thomson 2011 University of Denver

Outcomes & Assessment: A Golden Opportunity For Lrw Professors, David I.C. Thomson

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

The American Bar Association is currently discussing drafts of a proposal to shift the law school accreditation standards from inputs measurements (such as numbers of books, faculty student ratios, etc.) to outcomes assessment.

Law schools all across the country are busy trying to determine what this will mean, and how to go about meeting the new ABA standard.
