I’ve been helping to baby-sit my year old grandson this past week & it’s brought home to me the stark reality of this image. I salute every working woman & acknowledge that their successes have required a much greater amount of effort than their male counterparts
Enjoyed my time this week at @NotreDame teaching at the law school’s Intensive Trial Advocacy Program. The next generation of #triallawyers is in very good hands. And thankfully much more diverse than many past generations. #DiversityandInclusion
Today, Practice Court students heard from panelists @TomMelsheimer, Judge Craig Smith, & Judge Alan Albright - 'insiders' perspectives' on trial prep & effective trial strategies. Another reason Baylor Law is a leader in practical legal training! https://t.co/wmZZ7NbnnT
If you haven't signed up for our ethics CLE on the future of the American jury, you're missing out. @TomMelsheimer and Judge Craig Smith will discuss their compelling new book, "On the Jury Trial."
Here's an exclusive excerpt. We hope to see you there!

When we say “God Bless America,” one of the things we are blessing is our jury system https://t.co/gdWbcXSorz
@mcuban You’re right about the American jury system. No other country in the world permits jury trials for civil cases quite like the USA. Not England. Not Canada. It’s at the core of our democracy. #jurytrial
