Today I stopped and appreciated the view outside my office door.

You should have asked what he does for a living, and if he'd be OK with you sending him hate mail when you get bored.

Excited to share an article about our Designing a Fulfilling Life in the Law ⚖️ course at Michigan Law. Taylor Wilson, a student from the course, co-wrote the article with us.

We love helping others start courses like this! Please reach out to us!

Immigration Law was one of the most shocking and depressing courses in law school. It's so much worse than most people even imagine. ⚖️

Wow. I had no idea. My kids will love it.

Human trafficking does not require transportation in any form.

It is a crime of exploitation not movement

I won this painting in a silent auction this weekend for $15. It was done in 1974 by an Ann Arbor artist. It is the Engin arch on UM’s campus. I can’t explain why but it fills me with joy to have it.

We finally found some at CVS!!

Agreed and finding kids doses has been impossible. Everyone says they have them but I haven’t found anyone who actually has them. I have scoured websites. Called places. Walked in and asked. All while Covid is ripping through my kids school.

Then we invited them to refelct on their values and asked students to think about a Michigan Law experience driven by their top value.

My T-shirt for Michigan Law orientation!  So grateful for the opportunity to talk with all of the incoming students about the abundance of the legal profession.

I would love to know what others are doing -- especially around the skill of reflection.

I am finding the reality of AI is pushing me to be even more intentional in crafting both my in class and out of classroom time with my students. Right now my classes seem to be moving to the edges, super low and super high tech. I am excited to see how it all feels!

I have a certain movie on my list because there is just nowhere to go in that discourse....

Grateful to live in the same community as @denniskennedy.bsky.social Our breakfast meetings always energize me!

How did I get so lucky to have him as a mentor?

I still pinch myself! (And our Hoosier connection is the icing on the cake.) ⚖️

I had big plans today- to tackle the syllabus for the new clinic we are launching. I have no syllabus to show but I did hang all these frames in my office.

Procrastination = office decor win! ⚖️

Appalling.

I had a super hard day on Friday and then arrived home to discover Queen Charlotte. It felt like a personal treat sent to me by Shondaland. I am loving it!

this makes me feel good about liking this one....!

Same Julian. Same. I just used Leah’s following list to find people.

I feel this in my soul since I just signed on to blue sky tonight. Maybe I just wave the white flag and move over to “tech has passed me by” status now?
