Registration for the fall 2024 session of Mini Law school is now open! Each semester, this series provides an excellent lifelong-learning opportunity, and the upcoming edition is no exception. This fall’s curriculum will focus on how the 2024 election will change areas of the law, from immigration to healthcare. 
The seven-week series kicks off Wednesday, Sept. 11 with Professor Deep Gulasekaram's discussion of Immigration's Influence on Elections. Each week, a Colorado Law professor will present on a different topic, including:
- The Election and Climate Policy (Professor Nadav Orian Peer)
- The Future of Healthcare (Professor Laura Dolbow)
- Reproductive Rights (Professor Jennifer Hendricks)
- Artificial Intelligence (Professor Harry Surden)
- and more!
“This fall’s session will help participants understand the implications of the election on a wide variety of areas of law, from immigration and climate change to healthcare and reproductive rights,” said Matt Cushing, Director of Executive and Community Learning Programs. “Our faculty speakers will help participants anticipate where the law will develop after the election, and that in turn should help our participants make more informed decisions in the voting booth.”
Participants can attend lectures in person in Boulder, Colorado, watch a livestream of the lectures on Wednesday nights, or watch a recording of the lecture on-demand.
As an additional benefit, all participants in Mini Law School who apply to the University of Colorado Law School during the 2024-2025 application cycle will have their law school application fees waived.
“Mini law school is an opportunity for nonlawyers to learn from our law professors’ expertise,” said Cushing. “It is a great avenue for those who are curious about law school to learn more.”
There are no required readings, tests, or homework assignments - just a great way to better understand some of the most critical aspects of the legal system! Learn more about mini law school by visiting our website.
