Strong Commons Policy
September 27, 2011 at 9:30 AM
Hi All, We've heard that some students have been using the Strong Commons in Bergin as their personal study area and for student meetings. Per the Strong Commons Policy: "The Strong Commons Room was refurbished to provide a quiet space for individual faculty and their professional guests, official activities for the faculty as a whole, faculty committee meetings, and as a ceremonial room to receive visiting dignitaries and to host very special events. Every law school needs a special place of limited use for faculty and guests, and we have attempted to make the Strong Common Room such a place. It is not a student study area, an area where student organizations can meet, a place where faculty meet with or entertain their students, a "break out room" for classes, or a "break room" for evening or week-end programs.

Help With Orientation!
May 10, 2010 at 4:25 PM
Rising 3Ls, 2Ls, and 1Ls: Congratulations on finishing the school year. You should be proud. I am writing to encourage all of you to volunteer for the 2010 1L orientation. Every year, new students report that their favorite part of orientation is the interaction they have with upper-classmen (and, Dean Hsieh's vegetable talk). I hope you all will think back on the advice you received during orientation, and what advice you could impart to the incoming students. It is very important that we all take the time to help these students with the difficulties that come with 1L year. That being said, if you would like to volunteer for this year's orientation please email your contact info to Alisa Guglielmo, Director of Student Life, at AGuglielmo@scu.edu. Orientation will provide volunteers with free food,t-shirts, first dibs on lockers, and a chance to ease into the new school year while socializing with friends, faculty, and new students.

Parking Lot Repairs this Week
July 12, 2006 at 4:15 PM

We are expecting a paving contractor to be on site either Wednesday or Thursday of this week to make repairs in the following parking lots.  I cannot confirm which day they will be here at this time.

University Finance Office--areas to be repaired are outlined on the pavement in orange.  They are in the entry aisle and in the aisle along the south side of the lot.  Please do not park in these areas; and use the entrance off Benton which leads to the driveway at the back of your building to avoid any conflicts;

Leavey Lot:  the areas to be repaired are primarily at the north end of the lot.  It is recommended that cars enter the lot from Accolti way while repairs are in progress;

South Bannan Lot:  The area around an underground vault at the west end of the first row of parking spaces (closest to Bannan Hall) needs to be repaired.  When the work is in progress, cars will not be able to exit the lot, so this row of stalls will be closed to vehicles on Wednesday (and Thursday) if necessary.  Signs/Barricades will be in place at Sherman St blocking access to these stalls temporarily.

Each of these lots will be closed to all vehicles during pavement resealing and re-striping in the near future.  We will notify you well in advance of when this work will occur.

Thank you for your cooperation in this effort

 
 
Regarding: New disk-less exam procedure (FlexSite)
July 12, 2006 at 2:00 PM

To All Summer Students

From: Edwin M. Arevalo, Exam Administrator

Regarding: New disk-less exam procedure (FlexSite)

 

Hope all of you are having a good summer. I wanted to inform you that we are once again re-introducing FlexSite, the disk-less, internet based exam delivery system from ExamSoft. If you took summer classes last year, then you were able to experience this system in its early stages. We have made several modifications to improve performance and reliability of this product. We will use this system for all (unless they are only multiple-choice) exams starting summer 2006. I have outlined below some key items that need to be completed in order for you to take your exam on your laptop. If you do not follow these steps, then your computer will not have the ability to run FlexSite and you will be asked to write your exam responses. Please e-mail me if you have any questions or concerns. The first step asks you to download the new FlexSite version of Softest. You should have received this e-mail already. The e-mail contained your log-in and password. Unless you are a new student this summer, you will use the same log-in and password you have used in past semesters.  

*PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU KNOW YOUR 4-DIGIT BLIND GRADING ID BEFORE TEST DAY. YOU WILL NEED THIS NUMBER FOR ALL TEST MATERIALS. Also, you will need a network cable on exam day in order to obtain an internet connection.

II. Download & Upload SofTest Exam File Instructions

Details of the Analytical Writing Graduation Requirement
May 15, 2006 at 11:45 AM
At its meeting last week the faculty adopted an new graduation requirement for all students who entered law school last fall and later. Please read the details of the Analytical Writing Graduation Requirement:

Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement

Academic Affairs Committee Adopted May 5, 2006

Each student at Santa Clara University School of Law must satisfy a Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement as a condition of graduation. The Requirement is intended to assure that each student completes a significant piece of legal writing under the supervision of a faculty member following the first year of law school. The Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement is in effect for matriculating students who began Law School in fall 2005. It is the responsibility of each student to satisfy this Requirement before graduation from Law School.

General Goals and Objectives

The ability to write effectively and persuasively is fundamental to law practice.  A lawyer’s service to society and professional satisfaction depend on an ability to communicate through writing. The purpose of the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement is to further develop and improve that ability in each student beyond the level achieved in the first year research and writing program and the second year Advocacy course.  In ad­dition, the writing experience will provide the opportunity for intellectual growth through concentration and analysis in a specialized area of law.

How the Requirement Can Be Satisfied

The Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement can be satisfied only by individual work; joint papers or projects do not qualify. Students may discuss topics, ideas, or other aspects of the writing project with others, and may exchange drafts for the purpose of seeking feedback on improving the writing; however, all of the research and writing must be exclusively the student’s own work. In general, students may not use a writing that satisfies another requirement of graduation—such as an Advocacy brief or a brief produced in connection with a course satisfying the Skills Requirement¾for the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement. However, a paper that satisfies the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement can also satisfy the paper requirement for one of the specialized certificates (e.g., International Law, High Tech, or Social Justice). In addition, a paper completed in connection with a course that satisfies the Skills Requirement may satisfy the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement if the skills course involves substantial instruction in a professional skill other than brief writing (such as negotiation, interviewing, or oral advocacy). Faculty will certify that any writing produced in connection with the Skills Requirement does not also satisfy the skills component of the course (e.g., if the skills component involves the drafting of a brief, contract, or license).

So long as the paper meets the criteria set forth in the next section, the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement may be satisfied in one of the following ways:

(1) A paper required in a course or seminar in which the student is enrolled. Papers written for seminar credit must independently satisfy the criteria for the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement as set forth below. Not all papers that are satisfactory for course credit will be satisfactory for the Requirement.

(2) A law review comment or note written for one of the LawSchool’s law reviews. A faculty member must review the student’s comment or note and deter­mine whether it meets the criteria for the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement. A revision may be required.

(3) Independent research (Course 350)

(4) Upper division writing course.   A paper or series of shorter papers produced in an upper division writing course will satisfy the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement if the instructor determines that the criteria specified below are met.

(5) A directed research and writing project without credit

(6) Moot Court Brief. Normally, a brief or memorial (“brief”) submitted in the context of a moot court competition would not satisfy the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement as such writings are usually collaborative exercises and are not produced with faculty supervision. However, if a student is the sole author of a brief, or a significant portion of a brief such as a substantial section or argument contained within a brief, such a brief or portion thereof may qualify. Students who want to satisfy the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement through a Moot Court competition may do so by resubmitting their brief to the faculty advisor or another faculty member after submission in the competition. If the student wishes a portion of the brief to satisfy the Requirement, the student must identify the portion of the brief for which he or she is the sole author. The faculty member will review and critique the brief with the student and will likely require revision of portions of the brief, or brief section, prior to certifying the brief as meeting the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement. 

Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement Criteria

Regardless of the way in which the student chooses to satisfy the Requirement, the final product must meet the professional standards and expectations for the relevant audience.  Close and critical faculty supervision and review of the writing is expected. The topic shall be selected early in the term. Next, the student should, inter alia, develop a research strategy, produce an outline, formulate a thesis as appropriate, submit a first draft, engage in faculty consultation, implement revisions, and submit a final draft.  If the final product is not satisfactory, the faculty member may deny approval or may require that the paper be rewritten again before certifying that the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement has been met.

The student’s final product should demonstrate an ability to analyze complex legal issues and to communicate the analysis effec­tively. The writing is expected to be of high quality. The faculty member will approve the writing if it demonstrates the following qualities:

• the choice of an original or challenging topic;

• the succinct articulation and support of the thesis, if applicable;

• logical organization;

• an appropriate level of research and analysis;

• comprehensive analysis of the relevant law and application to the topic;

• persuasiveness and analytical depth, as appropriate;

• a proper introduction and conclusion;

• clear, concise, direct sentences;

• proper paragraphing and appropriate use of headings, sub-headings, and transitions;

• the correct use of legal terms and citation forms;

• appropriate attribution to original and secondary sources as necessary;

• adherence to the prohibition against plagiarism;

• proper grammar, syntax, punctuation, spelling and capitalization; and

• a neat and professional appearance.

Although the required page length will depend upon the nature of the project and the number of units sought, rarely would a piece of writing of fewer than twenty pages be adequate to satisfy the Requirement. 

Formal Procedures

Any member of the full-time faculty may supervise the writing and certify that it meets the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement.  LARAW professors, visiting full-time professors, and teaching scholars or fellows, and lecturers teaching an upper division writing course may also supervise a paper for the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement.  Under certain limited circumstances, the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs may approve certification by part-time or adjunct faculty, such as where the student desires to write on an area of particular expertise of one of our lecturers.  Upon receiving a written petition from a student to allow for such supervision setting forth reasons for which the paper should be supervised by a lecturer rather than a full faculty member, the Associate Dean will consult with the lecturer to explain that such supervision is not expected and to convey the time commitment and degree of rigor expected for the supervision. 

A student’s first choice of supervisor may not be available if the particular faculty member is already supervising, or has already supervised, a sufficient number of papers pursuant to the Requirement.

            When the student has chosen the way by which s/he intends to satisfy the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement, a “Writing Agreement” must be completed with the supervising faculty member and filed with Law Records at the outset of the project.  This Agreement should reflect the means by which the student intends to fulfill the Requirement (by a seminar paper, independent research, etc.) and an estimated completion date. The Agreement must be signed by both the student and the supervising faculty member.  Upon final completion of the paper and approval by the supervising faculty member, the faculty member shall certify on the Agreement that the Supervised Analytical Writing Requirement has been satisfied. The completed Agreement and a copy of the paper must then be submitted to Law Records for inclusion in the student’s file for graduation.

Moot Court Teams Compete at Trademark Competition
March 10, 2006 at 3:45 PM

Congratulations to SCU Law School External Moot Court Team members Kim-Lien Dang, Sriranga Veeraraghavan, Amanda Gardner and Matt Williams! The two teams competed recently at the West Coast Regional Rounds for the 15th Annual Saul Lefkowitz Moot Court Competition. The Competition was established in 1990 by the Brand Names Education Foundation in honor of Saul Lefkowitz, a Chairman of the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Now sponsored by the International Trademark Association, the Competition is an annual event consisting of Regional Competitions in Atlanta, Chicago, New York and San Francisco, and a Final National Competition in Washington, DC, USA. The West Coast Rounds were hosted by Townsend and Townsend and Crew LLP.

The West Coast Rounds were held Saturday, February 25, 2006, at the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco; both Santa Clara University Law School teams competed well, each facing two teams from among the field of 20 from various West Coast law schools. The team members were coached by Adjunct Faculty members Colby Springer and Karin Carter, both of whom are also local practicing attorneys. The teams were accompanied to the West Coast Rounds by Ms. Carter. Congratulations to both SCU Law School teams for a job well done!!

Outstanding Graduate
March 09, 2006 at 10:55 AM

Santa Clara University School of Law

E-MAIL MEMORANDUM
To: Law School Staff
From: Donald J. Polden, Dean
Subject: Outstanding Graduate

For the past couple of years, the School of Law has named the outstanding graduate from the graduating class. The proceeds from a $100,000 gift from an alumnus permits an award of $5,000 each year to the graduating student so selected. This award will be made again this year and I am writing to encourage your assistance in recognizing the outstanding graduate of the Class of 2006.

A key element in the selection process is through members of the faculty nominating students. A committee reviews the faculty nominees and ultimately selects the recipient from the nominees. Students and staff are encouraged to identify and nominate worthy students to members of the faculty. Faculty, in turn, will submit their nominees to the committee. Faculty members may nominate more than one student.

Criteria established by the donor for selection are: member of the graduating class; scholarship that includes not only grades, but also scholarly activity such as work on scholarly journals, moot court success, and performance in seminars; leadership roles held while in school, and other professional service and accomplishments, such student organization leadership, and pro bono work In short, while academic achievement is an important criteria, the award is designed to recognize the "complete student," not just the one with the highest grades.

As final nominations need to be in the dean’s office no later than March 17, you should submit your suggestions to a faculty member soon. Thank you for taking part in the process. Please consider nominating one or more graduating students for this prestigious award.

Please Note: If you are unable to open the attachment, there will be nominating forms in the Dean’s Office

Although the team did not advance to the final round, they made a strong showing for SCU Law. The team members were accompanied by Coach Prof. Angelo Ancheta, and bailiff, Justin Miyai. Again, congratulations for making it so far in the competition!

 
 
Pace Law School 2006 Int'l Criminal Court Moot Competition - Nov 10-12, 2006
March 06, 2006 at 10:25 AM

Law Students:

In Fall 2006, Santa Clara will again field a team to compete in the Pace Law School International Criminal Court competition. Last year, our team ranked third and won several individual accolades. Students with an interest in international and criminal law in particular should consider trying out for the team. Details about the try outs will be circulated soon.

Try outs will coincide with try outs for the Jessup International Law Moot Court team as well. This year, our team made it to the regional finals, losing narrowly to the University of Texas who will go on to compete in the world championships.

PACE LAW SCHOOL

INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT MOOT COMPETITION

THE INVITATION

Pace Law School is proud to announce the second annual International Criminal Court Moot Competition November 10-12, 2006. The event is open to the international law school community, welcoming law schools from disparate legal traditions to compete against one another in the context of a hypothetical criminal trial to be argued before the International Criminal Court.

THE COMPETITION IN BRIEF

Each team will submit three short memorials (briefs) requiring the students to research and develop arguments based on the three participants in ICC prosecutions, i.e., the Prosecution, the Defense and the Victims’ Advocates, a new role developed for the first time for the International Criminal Court. These memorials will be evaluated by legal scholars, and prizes will be awarded for best brief, second place runner-up, and third place runner-up in each of the three categories of memorials. Rules for participation by team coaches in the brief writing and oral argument phases of preparation are available on our web site.

Perhaps the most exciting feature of the Moot, and one unique to this competition, is that each team of students will participate in three rounds of oral arguments and have the opportunity of arguing from all three perspectives, prosecutor, defense counsel and victims’ advocate. Students who participated in a trial run for the Moot last year all commented that they had never experienced a better way of learning the substantive and procedural law in a given area and fully developing the arguments of the parties than by having the opportunity to make those arguments from all three perspectives during the Moot.

The 1st ICC Moot Competition featured a dinner reception and keynote address by Prof. David Scheffer, former Ambassador-at-Large for War Crimes in the Clinton Administration and chief negotiator for the United States on the Rome Statute. The final round of oral arguments was judged by leading experts in the field of international criminal law and the ICC. Dr. Benjamin Ferencz served as the Chief Judge on the panel for the Final Round.

REGISTRATION

The 2006 Pace International ICC Moot will be open to all law schools, and we hope that your law school will be with us this year. The Rules and the Problem for the Moot are available online. If you are interested in competing, please contact Professor Matthew Brotmann at and complete the Registration Form which you will also find online.

Opportunity w/ CA Commission on the Fair Administration of Justice
January 31, 2006 at 2:15 PM
Message from Prof. Gerald Uelmen:

"I have recently agreed to serve the California Commission on the Fair Administration of Justice as Executive Director, while continuing my teaching responsibilities here at the law school. The Commission will establish an office very close to campus, and I have been authorized to hire an Executive Assistant to direct office operations. This will be a full-time position, at an annual salary of $45,000 plus benefits, for a two year term. I think it would be an ideal position for a part-time student, both because of the proximity of location and the nature of the work. The Commission is undertaking a broad examination of the causes of wrongful convictions in California, and will recommend appropriate reforms to the legislature and judicial council. The Commission is chaired by John Van de Kamp, and the Commission members include the Attorney General, Police Chiefs, District Attorneys, Public Defenders and Judges, as well as other lawyers engaged in criminal defense and prosecution. Strong skills in office management and computer use are needed, as well as strong motivation to work for justice reform. If you have an interest in this opportunity, please leave a resume in my mail slot in Heafey 156 as soon as possible."

We are seeing a increase of greater than 1000% in email volume with all of that being invalid and infected emails. This huge volume is causing tremendous problems for the systems involved in delivering Internet messages resulting in delays and possible loss of messages.


We are working with our vendors to minimize the effects of these virus generated emails. As we have updated information, we will be posting on our IT status page located at http://it.scu.edu.
