The 2010 Conference will continue the LWI's tradition of providing a collegial, collaborative environment for the sharing of ideas. Colleagues will have a chance to meet, reconnect, and discuss ideas about pedagogy, scholarship, and professional growth. In addition, the LWI is also reaching out to practicing lawyers, hoping to facilitate bridges between the teachers of good writing and the practitioners of good writing.
