Welcome

By Christopher Buccafusco

Thanks for visiting the new Chicago-Kent Faculty Blog.  I’d like to begin by suggesting a couple of the goals we hope to achieve through the blog.
 
As Sarah alluded to in her welcome post, our primary goal is to share news about the intellectual life of the law school with the outside world.  We want to share exciting work that our faculty are doing with scholars, policy-makers, and the public.  We hope that the blog will provide current and prospective students with a sense of the academic enterprise of the law school.  And we hope that it will be a useful way for alumni to keep up-to-date about the intellectual progress of the law school.

In addition to posts about faculty scholarship, faculty in the news, and traditional academic blogging, we will include a series of posts by our C-K Faculty Blog Fellows – excellent second and third year law students who will provide journalistic descriptions of events on campus and throughout the city.  These written descriptions will often be accompanied by audio/visual podcasts of the events.

Thanks for visiting.  Please come by often.
