Events Planning

events calendar
Both M Law Live and the Law School calendar are good sources of information for what's happening in the Law School on a given day. Referring to these sources will help avoid unfortunate conflicts with other Law School events. Student groups are strongly encouraged to submit their upcoming events for inclusion on M Law Live and the calendar. The calendar is accessed online. Student groups should review the Posting Policy for information on how to add event advertising flyers to M Law Live (the online student portal).

events planning assistance
The Law School's Meeting/Special Events planner is Jenny Rickard, within the Office of Finance and Planning. Ms. Rickard is available to consult with student organizations regarding program planning and implementation.

If you would like to promote your event to Law School alumni, please submit the Firm Solicitation/Alumni Contact Request form, which will be received and reviewed by the Office of Development and Alumni Relations.

conferences and symposia
The Law School allows a limited number of conferences and symposia to take place at the Law School during each academic year. Permission to conduct a conference or symposium at the Law School must be obtained from the Curricular, Co-curricular, and Pedagogic Issues Committee, pursuant to the guidelines set forth by that committee.
