Summary:
"This book explores the role millennials will play--as faculty, administrators, or staff members--in shaping the future of legal education, and what the academy can do to embrace the millennial generation as colleagues, not students. Section I brings together chapters that focus on the culture of law schools, and the need to embrace a new, forward-thinking and innovative way of defining what law schools are and do and how we educate students. The chapters in Section II focus on relationships: the relationships millennials in the academy have with ourselves, our institutions, and the community. Section III includes chapters that detail how millennial leaders work in the classroom, how they use things like feedback and assessment to change the dynamic in the classroom and to innovate law school pedagogy to educate well-rounded lawyers. Section IV is an essential read for anyone who spends time thinking about the current legal economy and law schools' roles in educating practice-ready lawyers. Finally, Section V includes chapters on change. Legal education has no choice but to evolve, and these authors present ideas on how to embrace millennial ideology to do just that. This book can be used to understand, guide, engage, mentor, and work with millennials to shape the next generation of excellent law school leaders"--Provided by the publisher.
