Appellate Courts & Procedure: Consider Taking This Fall Course. (A notice from Prof. Steinman.) All through law school you read appellate court decisions, and perhaps you plan to litigate. How much do you know about appellate review? about who can appeal, when, where, and how? about the scope of review available before final judgment? Do you understand what the various standards of review really mean, and what standard the courts will apply to what issues? Are you sure of the degree to which the trial court record and the issues you've raised – or failed to raise – in the trial court limit what you can argue on appeal? Have you pondered when appellate courts feel free to make new law and when they leave law making to legislatures? or the role of intermediate appellate courts in lawmaking? Have you considered how the volume of litigation has altered how appellate courts operate (their internal procedures, their use of staff, the very structure of appellate court systems), and the implications of those changes for how appellate counsel must work? Do you know much about U.S. Supreme Court jurisdiction and certiorari policy, or the role of amicus curiae? If these questions interest you, consider taking Appellate Courts and Procedure, MWTh 9:35-10:30 am. We'll be using brand new materials by Meador, Baker, & Steinman.

Theft of KJF Fundraising Money. The proceeds from the recent Kent Justice Foundation wine event were stolen on the night of the event or in the several days that followed. (For details, see the most recent issue of the Commentator.) This kind of behavior is intolerable and, if the offense was committed by a law student, constitutes not only a crime, but a serious breach of ethics. To anyone who has information that might help identify the thief, I request that you contact me. To the thief, I request that you return the money by putting it in an envelope in my Kent mailbox (on the second floor).

Details: On January 9, 1997, in the early morning hours, a young nine-year old girl was found in the stairwell of the Chicago Housing Authority complex at 1121 North Larabee. The young girl was unconscious and had been assaulted. The brutal nature of the assault became not only local but national news. The girl became known to the public as "Girl X." A Cook County jury found Patrick Sykes guilty of the heinous crime, for which he was sentenced to 120 years imprisonment. The prosecutors on the case, Chief Deputy Anita Alvarez and now Judge William O'Brien, will discuss the prosecution of the case. Kevin Durkin, Second Vice President of The Chicago Bar Association and a partner with the Clifford law Offices, represented Girl X in the civil case that ensued and he will discuss that aspect of the case.
Barnes & Noble to Take Over Bookstore Operations. Barnes & Noble will be taking over Chicago-Kent's bookstore operations from Follett on March 1, 2005 and will open for business on Thursday, March 3. The bookstore will be closed from Monday, February 28 through Wednesday, March 2, to ensure a smooth transition. The following is a message from Barnes & Noble:
Barnes & Noble would like to thank you for the opportunity to serve the faculty, staff and students at Chicago-Kent College of Law. We look forward to a long and rewarding relationship with each of you. Barnes & Noble is the county's largest academic retailer and was recently named the #1 brand for quality for the third year in a row by Harris Interactive.
Barnes & Noble currently serves the students at the main campus of Illinois Institute of Technology and strives to meet the needs of the students and make their journey in education as rewarding as possible.
Textbooks are our #1 focus and priority. We make every effort to offer a wide array of textbook services that directly benefit the students at the Chicago-Kent campus. We empower our store managers to work for you. They will make every textbook decision, taking direction from the faculty to ensure that your campus receives exactly the service it needs.
We know how critical it is to have the right textbook on the first day of class and we are meticulous in making sure that the right book gets on the shelf at the right time. We want the students and faculty to concentrate on the learning experience, instead of dealing with administrative frustrations.
No one beats us in used textbooks. We are the nation's largest distributors of new and used textbooks and we are the only company to have established a dedicated department for used textbooks. Students are always seeking more used books, which are less expensive and offer more value than new texts. Our inventory control system has been designed expressly to access the complex used text marketplace. Within our own company, we have access to nearly 6 million used books, including those books used on all the campuses we serve nationwide.
Please stop by the bookstore and let us know what we can do to better serve you. We value your thoughts and ideas and it is our pleasure to be a part of the Chicago-Kent College of Law.

Important Updates About the Bar Application Process. Due to problems with the new electronic filing requirements, the Illinois bar examiners have extended the deadline for both bar registration applications by first-year students and July 2005 bar applications by graduating students. The new deadline for bar registration forms (first-year students) is May 1, 2005. The new deadline for July 1005 bar applications (graduating students) is March 1, 2005. All applications must be submitted both electronically and in print form. The one exception is the examination application card for the July bar application. This card (available in the Registrar's office) must be submitted with your printed application; there is no electronic version of the card. For more details about the bar registration and bar application requirements, see the January 17, 2005 entry in my Record archives.

Welcome Back!
Congratulations to all first-year students on completing your first semester of law school, and to upper-level students for making it one semester closer to graduation. I hope everyone had a restful holiday break.
Academic Calendar Reminder. Classes will not be held on Monday, January 17, in commemoration of Martin Luther King Day. Spring semester classes will start on Tuesday, January 18. Because Martin Luther King Day is an official university holiday for the first time this year, this also means that the Law School building will be closed on January 17.
Spring 2005 Semester Information. You may access initial reading assignments, course information updates, classroom assignments, Trial Advocacy section assignments, and other Fall semester information by following the links provided below, or by going to the Spring 2005 Term Information page. (Permanent links for term information pages appear on the Student Portal page, under "Academic term information").
Course Information Updates. A list of changes to the Spring schedule (additions, cancellations, and other changes) is linked to this page.
Classroom Assignments and Final Spring Schedule. A revised copy of the Spring 2005 Schedule of Classes, including classroom assignments, is linked to this page. Classroom assignments are also posted in the front lobby.
Initial Reading Assignments. Initial reading assignments for many Spring courses are linked to this page. (Please note: The list of initial assignments has been updated since it was first posted.)
Bookstore Hours. The bookstore's hours are linked to this page. Please note that the bookstore will not be open on Monday, January 17, due to the Law School's observance of Martin Luther King Day.
Trial Advocacy Section Assignments. If you are registered for Trial Advocacy 1 or Trial Advocacy 2 for the Spring semester, a list of section assignments is linked to this page.
Academic Calendar. The academic calendar for the Spring semester is linked to this page.
Adding and Dropping Classes. You may add an open course without special permission until the end of the first week of Spring classes; during the second week, however, you may add an open course only with permission of the instructor. You may not add a course after the second week of the semester. You may withdraw from any course except a required course, a clinical course, Law Review, Moot Court, or Intensive Trial Advocacy at any time prior to the date of the final exam or final paper (see § 3.10(c) of the Student Handbook). There is no tuition penalty if you drop a course during the first two weeks of classes. You will not receive a tuition refund, however, if you drop a course after the second week of classes.
ASP Small Group Sessions. Information about the Academic Support Program, including membership criteria for ASP small group sessions and the process for petitioning into the small groups, is linked to this page. For more information about the Academic Support Program and study resources, please visit the ASP web site.
Final Exams. The final exam schedule for the Spring semester is linked to this page. The Student Handbook requires that you take your finals at the times scheduled, even if you have two exams in a row, or one at 6:00 p.m. and another at 8:30 a.m. the next morning. Absent extraordinary circumstances, the only exception is if you have three exams scheduled consecutively (which rarely happens) or two exams scheduled at the same time. Please note that you are permitted to register for courses with exams scheduled at the same time; one exam will be rescheduled for you. If you believe you have an exam conflict or other circumstances justifying the rescheduling of an exam (see Student Handbook sections 7.2 and 7.3), please contact Jamie Lake, the Director of Student Services (312/906-5247; e-mail: JLAKE).
U-Pass Distribution. Spring U-Passes will be distributed in the front lobby on Tuesday, January 18, from 11:30-1:00 and 4:30-6:00 pm. For more information on the U-Pass program and which students qualify for participation in the program, see the Student Services section of the Record.
Bar Registration for First-Year Students. First-year students who plan to take the Illinois Bar Examination after graduation should register with the Illinois bar examiners. The registration materials must be submitted by March 1, 2005. Effective immediately, all registration applications must be submitted electronically. The forms and instructions required for electronic filing will be available later this month on the bar examiners' web site: http://www.ibaby.org. Although you are not required to register as a first-year student, the advantage of doing so is that you will avoid paying a late fee of $350 imposed on those who register at any point after March 1 of their first year. If you are uncertain whether you intend to practice in Illinois, you may want to consider waiting to register and paying the late fee should you eventually decide to take the Illinois bar exam. The application form is very comprehensive and requires you to provide a significant amount of background information, some of which may be difficult to remember or obtain. I suggest that, if you do plan to register by the March deadline, you begin working on the materials sooner rather than later. If you have any questions about the application materials, you may call the Illinois Board of Admissions to the Bar at 217/522-5917.
All information you disclose on the bar registration application should be consistent with answers to questions on your Application for Admission to the law school. Please note, however, that the bar registration application asks for a considerable amount of information that you were not asked to provide on our Application for Admission. You only need to be concerned about the consistency of your answers for questions asked on both forms. You can amend your Application for Admission, if necessary, by addressing a letter to me setting forth the details of the omission or misrepresentation and the reason for it.
Representatives from the Illinois Board of Admissions to the Bar will visit the Law School early in the Spring semester to answer questions concerning the completion of the bar registration application. We will announce the date and time once the session has been scheduled.
First-year students who think they may practice in another state should contact the bar examiners office in that state as soon as possible to determine their registration requirements. Booklets with the addresses and phone numbers of state bar examiners offices are available for you to consult in the Registrar’s office and in my office.
July 2005 Bar Exam. Applications for the July 2005 Illinois bar exam must be submitted no later than February 21, 2005 (extended from the original deadline of February 1). Beginning with this exam, all applications must be submitted electronically. The forms and instructions are available on the bar examiners' web site: http://www.ibaby.org. Please note: Even if you registered with the bar examiners as a first-year student, you must still submit a final application by February 21. If you did not register during your first year, you will need a separate set of application materials, which contains both the registration application and the final application. Please be sure that you obtain the correct materials. If you have any questions about the application materials, you may call the Illinois Board of Admissions to the Bar at 217/522-5917.
The Law School sends a “Certificate of Dean of Law School Proof of Legal Education” to the Illinois bar examiners for every student who graduates in May. Please be sure to file an Application for Graduation so that we will know you plan to graduate in May.
All information you disclose on the bar application should be consistent with answers to questions on your Application for Admission to the Law School. Please note, however, that the bar application asks for a considerable amount of information that you were not asked to provide on our Application for Admission. You only need to be concerned about the consistency of your answers for questions asked on both forms. You can amend your Application for Admission, if necessary, by addressing a letter to me setting forth the details of the omission or misrepresentation and the reason for it.
Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE). The MPRE is required for admission to the bars of most jurisdictions, including Illinois. The exam is administered in March, August, and November each year. You may take the exam after you have completed the equivalent of two full academic years of law school, i.e., after you have completed two-thirds of the academic requirements for the J.D. degree. Applications for the next exam, on March 12, 2005, are available in the Registrar's office. You may also register online by going to http://www.ncbex.org/mpre.htm. The deadline for applying for the March exam is February 1, 2005 (the late deadline is February 17).
Weather Closing Information. Flyers with information about emergency weather closings are available on the table outside the third-floor cafeteria. As explained in the flyer, you may find out whether the Law School is closed due to severe weather in any of the ways listed below. Please note: Information for the Law School will be listed under "IIT-Chicago-Kent College of Law."

Reminder About IIT's Political Activity Policy. IIT’s General Counsel would like to remind employees and students of the university’s obligation as a tax-exempt entity to refrain from engaging in any partisan political activities. This policy applies to all academic units within IIT, including the Law School. Violation of the prohibition against such activity could jeopardize IIT’s tax-exempt status. While individuals are free to express their opinions and to support political candidates on their own, it must be clear that the individual is acting on his or her own behalf and not on behalf of IIT. In no event may the name, symbols, or resources of the university be used to participate or intervene in any political campaign on behalf of or in opposition to a candidate for political office. Specific examples of impermissible activities include the use of university letterhead, campus mail, or IIT e-mail accounts to solicit support or contributions for a candidate; using university funds to purchase tickets for a candidate's fund-raiser; and putting campaign posters on university property. If you have any questions or concerns about this policy, please contact Mary Anne Smith, Vice President and General Counsel of IIT, at 312/567-3034.

Consulting Laptops During Exams. Unless your professor specifically authorizes it, you may not consult materials (notes, outlines, etc.) stored on your laptop computer during an open book or limited open book exam; you are limited to consulting print materials authorized by your professor. Please note: This is separate from the issue of whether you may write your exam on your own laptop. The limitation described just above applies whether you are writing your exam by hand or on a lab or laptop computer.
Cell Phones During Exams. You are not permitted to use a cell phone during any exam, including during any restroom breaks. If you have a cell phone with you during an exam, it must be turned off and stored out of sight.
Access to Computer Labs During Exams. Because we use the computer labs during many of the exam slots during exam period, access for other purposes (e.g., printing out papers or exam outlines) is limited. Please keep in mind that there is a printer in the 5th Floor Student Lounge that you can use if the labs are all in use.
Spring 2005 Registration.

Legal Writing 3 (section 431-004, Tues./Thurs. 4:30): This section has been canceled due to low enrollment.
Adding and Dropping Classes. The initial registration period is now over. If you have not already done so, please log back into the online registration system to see what classes you were admitted into. You may make adjustments to your schedule through the end of the second week of the Spring semester. The Spring 2005 Registration Bulletin, which includes the final schedule of Fall classes and course and exam grids, is available outside the third floor cafeteria. Online versions of these documents and access to the online registration system are available here and through the main Student Portal page (click on the Spring '05 link).
Initial Reading Assignments and Course Books. Reading assignments for the first week of the Spring semester will be posted on the Student Portal page (under the Spring '05 link) on Tuesday, December 21. Assignments not received by December 21 will be posted as we receive them.
You may ask the Bookstore to hold your Spring course books for you when they arrive, or for an extra fee you may request that the books be mailed to you over the holiday break. If you would like to take advantage of either of these options, stop by the bookstore before you leave, or call the bookstore at 312/906-5605. In addition, you may order your course books over the web by clicking on the bookstore link on the Student Portal page.

Room assignments will also be posted in the front lobby.
Exams on Computer. If you missed the initial period for registering to take exams on computer, you may still do so for any exam that still has computer slots available. (Please keep in mind that not all professors allow students to take exams on computer.) You may also change your exam preference from computer to hand-writing. For both of these options, log into your Web for Students account and click on the "Register for exams on computer" link under "On Line Forms" (on the left hand menu).

Exam Emergencies. If an emergency occurs that may prevent you from taking a final exam, you or someone on your behalf should call me (312/906-5282) or Jamie Lake (312/906-5247) as soon as possible. If you cannot reach either of us, call the Registrar's office (312/906-5080). Do not contact your professor about any problem connected with your exam, as this may compromise your anonymity. Please read Section VII of the Student Handbook, which contains the rules governing exams, exam conflicts, make-up exams, missed exams, and related issues; and review Article II of the Code of Conduct in the Student Handbook.

Joke of the week. "I like dogs. I do. But they're not that bright, really. Let's examine the dog mind. Every time you come home, he thinks it's amazing. He can't believe that you've accomplished this again. You walk in the door. The joy of it almost kills him. 'He's back again. It's that guy! It's that guy!'" (Jerry Seinfeld)

Fall 2004 Final Exams.
Exam Schedule. The final exam schedule for the current semester is linked to this page. You will be notified of the classroom assignments for your exams prior to the start of exam period.
Rescheduling Exams. The Student Handbook requires that you take your finals at the times scheduled, even if you have two exams in a row, or one at 6:00 p.m. and another at 8:30 a.m. the next morning. Absent extraordinary circumstances, the only exception is if you have three exams scheduled consecutively (which rarely happens) or two exams scheduled at the same time. If you believe you have an exam conflict or other circumstances justifying the rescheduling of an exam (see Student Handbook sections 7.2 and 7.3), please complete a Final Exam Reschedule form on the Web for Students site (go to https://webmail.kentlaw.edu/exchange/logon.asp, click on the Web for Students icon, and navigate to the appropriate form). The deadline is Friday, November 19. The Registrar's office will notify you of the rescheduled date, time, and location of your exam.
Availability of Professors' Old Exams. Many professors make their old exams available for students to review. Exams dating from 1992 and before are bound in volumes available in the 10th floor reading room in the Library. Exams after 1992 are available online by going to http://library.kentlaw.edu/Services/students.htm, clicking on the Exams Database link on the left, and then clicking on the link indicated there.
Exams on Computer Sign-Up. Many professors allow students to take their exams on computer (either lab computers or students' own laptops, or both). The deadline for signing up to take exams on computer is Friday, November 26. All students should have received an e-mail explaining the procedure for signing up for exams. If you did not receive an e-mail, please contact the Registrar's Office.
Grade Distributions for Spring 2004. The grade distributions for Spring 2004 courses are linked to this page.
CALI Award Winners for Summer 2004. The CALI Excellence for the Future Award, sponsored by the Center for Computer-Assisted Legal Instruction, is given to the student or students who receive the highest grade in each section of each course. The CALI Award winners for Summer 2004 courses are linked to this page. Congratulations to all of you who received the award -- you should be proud of your achievement.
New Smoking Policy for Front of Building. Beginning Monday, November 15, smoking will be permitted in front of the building only on the Jefferson Street side (the west side of the building, away from the lake). Smoking will not be permitted in front of either revolving door or to the east of the doors (toward the lake). Signs have been posted designating the smoking and non-smoking areas. If you witness a violation of the new policy, please inform the security officer at the front desk.
Teaching Evaluations. Teaching evaluations will be distributed in the coming weeks to elicit students' opinions about the quality of teaching at the Law School. Instructors will review the responses to improve the quality of their instruction and courses. The evaluations are also considered as one important factor in tenure, promotion, and compensation decisions for full-time faculty and are used as a factor in determining the effectiveness of part-time instructors. Evaluations are anonymous and will not be available to professors until grades are turned in.

Spring 2005 Schedule and Registration. The final Spring 2005 schedule and Registration Bulletin will be available outside the third floor cafeteria on Thursday, November 18. Online versions will be available through the Student Portal page (click on the Spring 2005 link) or by clicking here. Registration will take place Monday, November 22 through Sunday, November 28. You may register at any time during that period. After the end of the registration period, the registration requests will be processed according to each student's registration priority. In other words, registration will not be conducted on a first-come, first served basis; as long as you register during the designated period, you will have an equal chance of being admitted to a class as other students within your registration priority group. Note to first-year students: Although first-year students have set schedules, you still must register for your Spring courses using the Online Registration system. Please be careful to register for the doctrinal classes listed for your current section, and for the Legal Writing section taught by your current professor.
Illinois Bar Exam: Q&A With Bar Examiners. Representatives from the Illinois Board of Admissions to the Bar will be at the Law School on Wednesday, November 17, 3:00-4:00 pm (for day students) and 5:00-6:00 pm (for evening students) in Rm. 590 to answer questions from third-year students concerning the completion of your bar application. A separate session will be held early in the Spring semester for first-year students.
As announced in previous issues of the Record, first-year students who plan to take the Illinois Bar Examination after graduation should submit a registration application, which must be postmarked by March 1, 2005. The forms and instructions are available on the bar examiners' web site at http://www.ibaby.org/. Although you are not required to register as a first-year student, the advantage of doing so is that you will avoid paying a late fee of $350 imposed on those who register at any point after March 1 of their first year.

Although the workshop is mainly aimed at first-year students, all students are welcome to attend. If you are unable to attend but would like to see a videotape of the program, contact Jamie Lake (e-mail: JLAKE).
Joke of the Week. A guy took his cross-eyed dog to the vet and asked, "Is there anything you can do for him?" The vet picked the dog up and peered into his eyes. "I'm going to have to put him down," the vet said finally. "Just because he's cross-eyed?" asked the owner. "No, because he's heavy," said the vet.

Fall 2004 Final Exams. The final exam schedule for the current semester is linked to this page. The Student Handbook requires that you take your finals at the times scheduled, even if you have two exams in a row, or one at 6:00 p.m. and another at 8:30 a.m. the next morning. Absent extraordinary circumstances, the only exception is if you have three exams scheduled consecutively (which rarely happens) or two exams scheduled at the same time. If you believe you have an exam conflict or other circumstances justifying the rescheduling of an exam (see Student Handbook sections 7.2 and 7.3), please complete a Final Exam Reschedule form on the Web for Students site (go to https://webmail.kentlaw.edu/exchange/logon.asp, click on the Web for Students icon, and navigate to the appropriate form). The deadline is Friday, November 19. The Registrar's office will notify you of the rescheduled date, time, and location of your exam.
Availability of Professors' Old Exams. Many professors make their old exams available for students to review. Exams dating from 1992 and before are bound in volumes available in the 10th floor reading room in the Library. Exams after 1992 are available online by going to http://library.kentlaw.edu/Services/students.htm, clicking on the Exams Database link on the left, and then clicking on the link indicated there.

Fire Drill. We would like to thank students, faculty, and staff for their cooperation with the recent fire drill. Although we were generally pleased with how the drill went, we would like to pass along a few reminders:
*Please use the nearest staircase to exit the building -- do not use the elevators.
*Please do not take time to gather up your belongings -- your safety is more important than your possessions. If you feel that you must take any valuables with you, please "grab and go" -- do not waste precious seconds or minutes powering down your laptop computer or packing up your belongings. This is where we had the biggest problem this year. Keep in mind that your delay in leaving also delays (and thus endangers, in the event of a real emergency) the staff members assigned to clear that floor.
*Once you exit the building, please move eastward down the sidewalk (toward the lake) so that you will be out of harm's way if any windows shatter. For your safety, please do not cross the street or step into traffic.
Counseling Services for Downtown Campus. The IIT Counseling Center is now providing services here at the Downtown Campus on Thursdays, 2:00-5:00 pm, in Rm. 447. Please see the Student Services section of the Record for details.
Trial Team Success. Congratulations to the Chicago-Kent Trial Team for making it to the semi-finals in the Buffalo Niagra Invitational Mock Trial Competition, the largest invitational Trial Advocacy competition in the nation. The team of Andrew Cherkasky, Anthony Lucafo, Ida Nassar, and Susan Song (three of whom were competing for the first time) was one of the "final four" out of a total of 35 teams from 20 schools. They defeated four teams without losing a single judge's vote on their way to the semi-finals, where they fell to Temple in a 3-2 decision. Congratulations also to the team coaches: Judge David Erickson, Margaret Firnstein, and Nicholas Caputo.
Joke of the Week. There once was a mendicant holy man who walked barefoot most of the time, which gave him large callouses on his feet. He also ate very sparingly, which made him frail, and his odd diet gave him bad breath. In other words, he was a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis!

Once you exit the building, please move eastward down the sidewalk (toward the lake) so that you will be out of harm's way if any windows shatter. For your safety, please do not cross the street or step into traffic. Failure to leave the building promptly, or failure to follow the directions of Law School personnel, may subject you to a Code of Conduct charge.

London Law Consortium Program. Chicago-Kent offers a semester of legal study in London each Spring semester as part of a consortium with six other schools. If you are interested in the London Law Consortium for the Spring 2005 semester, please pick up a copy of the program brochure from Denise Lang outside my office (Suite 320C). Spaces in the program will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. We must submit to the program administrators completed applications from all of our participating students no later than Friday, September 10, 2004. If you wish to discuss the program in more detail, contact Professor David Rudstein (drudstei@kentlaw.edu; 312/906-5354).
Bar Registration for First-Year Students. First-year students who plan to take the Illinois Bar Examination after graduation should register with the Illinois bar examiners. The registration materials must be postmarked by March 1, 2005. The forms and instructions are available on the bar examiners' web site: http://www.ibaby.org/. Although you are not required to register as a first-year student, the advantage of doing so is that you will avoid paying a late fee of $350 imposed on those who register at any point after March 1 of their first year. If you are uncertain whether you intend to practice in Illinois, you may want to consider waiting to register and paying the late fee should you eventually decide to take the Illinois bar exam. The application form is very comprehensive and requires you to provide a significant amount of background information, some of which may be difficult to remember or obtain. I suggest that, if you do plan to register by the March deadline, you begin working on the materials sooner rather than later. If you have any questions about the application materials, you may call the Illinois Board of Admissions to the Bar at 217/522-5917.
All information you disclose on the bar registration application should be consistent with answers to questions on your Application for Admission to the law school. Please note, however, that the bar registration application asks for a considerable amount of information that you were not asked to provide on our Application for Admission. You only need to be concerned about the consistency of your answers for questions asked on both forms. You can amend your Application for Admission, if necessary, by addressing a letter to me setting forth the details of the omission or misrepresentation and the reason for it.
First-year students who think they may practice in another state should contact the bar examiners office in that state as soon as possible to determine their registration requirements. Booklets with the addresses and phone numbers of state bar examiners offices are available for you to consult in the Registrar’s office and in my office.
February 2005 and July 2005 Illinois Bar Applications. Applications for the February 2005 bar exam must be postmarked by September 1, 2004; applications for the July 2005 Illinois bar exam must be postmarked by February 1, 2005. You may file a late application for the February bar up to December 31, and for the July bar up to May 31, but substantial penalty fees apply. The forms and instructions are available on the bar examiners' web site: http://www.ibaby.org/. Please note: Even if you registered with the bar examiners as a first-year student, you must still file a final application. If you did not register during your first year, you will need a separate set of application materials, which contains both the registration application and the final application. Please be sure that you obtain the correct materials. If you have any questions about the application materials, you may call the Illinois Board of Admissions to the Bar at 217/522-5917.
The law school sends a “Certificate of Dean of Law School Proof of Legal Education” to the Illinois bar examiners for every student who graduates in December or May. Please be sure to file an Application for Graduation so that we will know you plan to graduate in either December or May.
All information you disclose on the bar application should be consistent with answers to questions on your Application for Admission to the law school. Please note, however, that the bar application asks for a considerable amount of information that you were not asked to provide on our Application for Admission. You only need to be concerned about the consistency of your answers for questions asked on both forms. You can amend your Application for Admission, if necessary, by addressing a letter to me setting forth the details of the omission or misrepresentation and the reason for it.
Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE). The MPRE is required for admission to the bars of most jurisdictions, including Illinois. The exam is administered in March, August, and November each year. You may take the exam after you have completed the equivalent of two full academic years of law school, i.e., after you have completed two-thirds of the academic requirements for the J.D. degree. Applications for the next exam, on November 12, 2004, are available in the Registrar's office. The deadline for applying for the November exam is October 5, 2004 (the late deadline is October 21).
Cafeteria: Now Accepting Credit Cards. The cafeteria now accepts credit or debit charges (VISA and MasterCard only) for orders of $5.00 or more.

CTA U-Pass Program. Chicago-Kent is a participant in the Chicago Transit Authority's U-Pass program. The U-Pass is a discount fare card allowing unlimited rides on all CTA buses and trains. The U-Pass also qualifies holders for discounts of up to 50% at over 750 merchants throughout Chicago. All full-time day students (determined by your official division status, not by the number of credit hours you take in a particular semester) will be issued a U-Pass card valid from August 23 (the first day of classes) through December 18 (the end of Fall exams). New cards will be issued at the start of the Spring semester. The charge for the card will appear on the semester bill for each full-time student. Due to restrictions imposed by the CTA, the program is not currently available to evening students or part-time day students. For more details, see our U-Pass FAQ, and visit the CTA's U-Pass web site. We will also distribute informational brochures along with the U-Pass cards.
Chicago-Kent Master Calendar. The Chicago-Kent Master Calendar is linked to this page; it may also be accessed from the main Chicago-Kent web page and from the Record web pages (see, e.g., the link to the right on this page). This site brings together the following different calendars: the Academic Calendar, Admissions Calendar, Alumnae/i Calendar, Events Calendar, Student Administrative Calendar, and Student Organizations Calendar. You can view events in calendar or list format; by day, week, month, or year; and may look at one specific kind of calendar or all calendars together.
Student Health Insurance. For information about the 2004-2005 student health insurance plan, please see the Student Services section of this week's Record, and the Student Health Insurance FAQ.
FERPA Rights and Notification of Access to Educational Records. The Student Handbook outlines student rights and responsibitilies regarding access to educational records. Please review sections 14.4 and 14.5, which are linked to this page. Please pay particular attention to section 14.5, which lists the types of information that Chicago-Kent classifies as "directory information," which Chicago-Kent may release at its discretion, and the information published in the online Student Directory (available only to members of the Chicago-Kent community). Section 14.5 also explains how you may request that directory information, including the information published in the Student Directory, not be published or released.
Reminder About IIT's Political Activity Policy. IIT’s General Counsel would like to remind employees and students of the university’s obligation as a tax-exempt entity to refrain from engaging in any partisan political activities. This policy applies to all academic units within IIT, including the Law School. Violation of the prohibition against such activity could jeopardize IIT’s tax-exempt status. While individuals are free to express their opinions and to support political candidates on their own, it must be clear that the individual is acting on his or her own behalf and not on behalf of IIT. In no event may the name, symbols, or resources of the university be used to participate or intervene in any political campaign on behalf of or in opposition to a candidate for political office. Specific examples of impermissible activities include the use of university letterhead, campus mail, or IIT e-mail accounts to solicit support or contributions for a candidate; using university funds to purchase tickets for a candidate's fund-raiser; and putting campaign posters on university property. If you have any questions or concerns about this policy, please contact Mary Anne Smith, Vice President and General Counsel of IIT, at 312/567-3034.
Furniture in the Classrooms. If you have any reason to remove tables, podiums, chairs, or other furniture from classrooms temporarily, please be sure that you return them promptly. Missing furniture can cause serious inconvenience to instructors and students.
To Entering Students:
Student Handbook and Code of Conduct. Please take time to review the Student Handbook, including the Chicago-Kent Code of Conduct, included in the Handbook. For future reference, there is a permanent link to the Handbook on the main Student Portal page.
Amendments to Your Applications for Admission. The Illinois bar examiners reserve the right to check information you disclose to them on your bar application for consistency with the information you provided on your application for admission to law school. The bar examiners also conduct their own investigations to ensure that you disclosed all relevant information on your bar application and your law school application. Some students have had considerable difficulty in the past when the bar examiners found discrepencies between the information disclosed to them and the information on their law school applications, or when they discovered relevant information omitted from both.
I recommend that you review your answers to the questions asked on our application for admission and amend your application if any relevant information was excluded. You can amend your application by sending a memo to my attention describing the omitted information and explaining why you did not include the information on your application. In some cases, disciplinary action under the Code of Conduct may be appropriate. But it is much better to disclose the information now, and suffer whatever consequences may ensue (if any), than to be called before the bar examiners three years from now to explain a discrepency or omission.
Most problems in the past have arisen with respect to the following two questions on the
application:
16. Have you ever been convicted of, plead guilty or nolo contendere to, or received a period of supervision for, any offense other than a minor traffic or parking violation, or is any charge now pending against you concerning such an offense? (A "minor traffic violation" is a violation for which only a citation was issued, e.g., speeding. You must report any other traffic offense, including any offense in which acting under the influence of a drug or alcohol was an element of the offense.) You must disclose each instance regardless of whether a conviction was reversed, set aside or vacated, or the record sealed or expunged.
17. Have you ever been dropped, suspended, placed on academic or social probation or warning, or otherwise disciplined by any college or university, for any reason?
Academic Support Program. You received information during Orientation about the Academic Support Program, which is designed to assist first-year students in developing the skills needed to succeed in law school.

We must submit to the program administrators completed applications from all of our participating students no later than Friday, September 10, 2004. If you wish to discuss the program in more detail, contact Professor David Rudstein (drudstei@kentlaw.edu; 312/906-5354).
Joke of the week. "While driving I had an accident with a magician. It wasn't my fault, the guy came out of nowhere." (Auggie Cook)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Week of August 16, 2004
General Announcements:
Student Organization Fair. The annual Student Organization Fair will be held on Tuesday, August 24, from 12:00-2:00 (for day students) and from 5:00-6:00 (for evening students) in the second and third floor atriums. All students are invited.
CTA U-Pass Program. Chicago-Kent is a participant in the Chicago Transit Authority's U-Pass program. The U-Pass is a discount fare card allowing unlimited rides on all CTA buses and trains. The U-Pass also qualifies holders for discounts of up to 50% at over 750 merchants throughout Chicago. All full-time day students (determined by your official division status, not by the number of credit hours you take in a particular semester) will be issued a U-Pass card valid from August 23 (the first day of classes) through December 18 (the end of Fall exams). New cards will be issued at the start of the Spring semester. The charge for the card will appear on the semester bill for each full-time student. Due to restrictions imposed by the CTA, the program is not currently available to evening students or part-time day students. For more details, see our U-Pass FAQ, and visit the CTA's U-Pass web site. We will also distribute informational brochures along with the U-Pass cards. Details about when and how the cards will be distributed will be sent to students by e-mail, and will appear in next week's Record.
To Entering Students:
Welcome to Chicago-Kent! For those of you starting your first year, you chose a terrific law school and we are pleased that you are joining our community. You have an exciting several years ahead of you.
What My Office Does. In my capacity as Assistant Dean for Academic Administration and Student Affairs, I have responsibility for a number of areas that affect your life as a student. I supervise the Registrar's office on scheduling your courses, administering your exams, and maintaining your academic records. I oversee the Student Services office on Orientation, academic and personal counseling of students, and applying the school's academic regulations. More generally, my job is to make sure that your life at the Law School remains as free from administrative hassles as possible. If you think I can be of help, please call me (906-5282), come by my office (Suite 320C), or e-mail me (SSOWLE). If I'm not the right person to help you, I should be able to point you in the right direction. My door is open without appointment, so long as I am not otherwise occupied when you drop by.
Orientation Week. The final schedule for Orientation week will be distributed in the packets you receive when you arrive on August 16. In addition, the Admissions Office has created a special web page for entering students with links to lots of useful information.

Welcome Back! I hope you had an enjoyable summer and that you have a successful and productive year. If you would like to see me with a question, problem, or suggestion, please call me (906-5282), come by my office (Suite 320C), or e-mail me (SSOWLE).
Fall 2004 Semester Information. You may access initial reading assignments, course information updates, Trial Advocacy section assignments, and other Fall semester information by following the links provided below, or by going to the Fall 2004 Term Information page. (Permanent links for term information pages appear on the Student Portal page, under "Academic term information").
Initial Reading Assignments and Course Materials. Reading assignments for the first week of the Fall semester are linked to this page. (Please note: The list of initial assignments has been updated since it was first posted, and may be updated again if we receive additional assignments.) If you have not yet returned to school, you may ask the bookstore to hold your Fall course books for you until you arrive, or for an extra fee you may request that the books be mailed to you. If you would like to take advantage of either of these options, stop by the bookstore or call 312/906-5605. In addition, you may order your course books over the Internet through the Follett's Bookstore web site.
Course Information Updates. Changes to the Fall 2004 class schedule are linked to this page. Some of these changes have been previously announced; further changes may be made before the start of Fall classes. A revised version of the Fall class schedule incorporating these changes is available outside the third floor cafeteria; an online version is linked to this page.
Adding and Dropping Courses. You may add an open course without special permission until the end of the first week of classes. During the second week, however, you may add an open course only with permission of the instructor. You may not add a course after the second week of the semester. You may withdraw from any course except a required course, a clinical course, Law Review, Moot Court, or Intensive Trial Advocacy at any time prior to the date of the final exam or final paper (see § 3.10(c) of the Student Handbook). There is no tuition penalty if you drop a course during the first two weeks of classes. You will not receive a tuition refund, however, if you drop a course after the second week of classes.
Classroom Assignments. A revised copy of the Fall 2004 Schedule of Classes, including classroom assignments, is linked to this page. Classroom assignments will also be posted in the front lobby.
Exam Schedule. A copy of the Fall 2004 exam schedule is linked to this page. The Student Handbook requires that you take your finals at the times scheduled, even if you have two exams in a row, or one at 6:00 p.m. and another at 8:30 a.m. the next morning. Absent extraordinary circumstances, the only exception is if you have three exams scheduled consecutively (which rarely happens) or two exams scheduled at the same time. Please note that you are permitted to register for courses with exams scheduled at the same time; one exam will be rescheduled for you. If you believe you have an exam conflict or other circumstance justifying the rescheduling of an exam (see Student Handbook sections 7.2 and 7.3), please contact Jamie Lake, the Director of Student Services (312/906-5247; e-mail: JLAKE).
Trial Advocacy Section Assignments. If you are registered for Trial Advocacy 1 or Trial Advocacy 2 for the Fall semester, a list of section assignments is linked to this page.
Bookstore Hours. The Bookstore's hours for the Fall semester are linked to this page.
2004-2005 Academic Calendar. The Academic Calendar for 2004-2005 is linked to this page.
Spring 2005 Preliminary Schedule. The preliminary class schedule for the Spring 2005 semester is linked to this page. Please note: This schedule is only preliminary – there will be additions to the class list (in particular, we anticipate adding several seminars) and other changes made before the schedule is finalized.
At this point, we anticipate adding the following courses to the preliminary Spring schedule: E-Commerce (in the day); Education Law; Energy Law (in a 4:00 slot); and Intellectual Property & Technology Licensing.
In addition, the following courses listed on the preliminary Spring schedule will not be offered: Civil Procedure 2; Computers & Legal Reasoning; Law, Economics & Justice seminar; and Topics in E-Commerce seminar. The final Spring 2005 schedule will be issued later this semester, when registration for Spring 2005 classes will also take place.
Spring 2004 CALI Award Winners. The CALI Excellence for the Future Award, sponsored by the Center for Computer-Assisted Legal Instruction, is given to the student or students who receive the highest grade in each section of each course. The CALI award winners for Spring 2004 courses are linked to this page. If a section or a course is not listed, that means the professor elected not to give a CALI award. Congratulations to all of you who received an award -- you should be proud of your achievement.
