Bar Examinees Take Note!

On behalf of Professor Huhn:

“Dear Students,
On the evening of Tuesday, July 16, there will be an online question and answer session to assist you in preparation for the bar exam. I will take questions on Constitutional Law and Commercial Paper. We will meet from 7:00 to 8:00 pm. We can accommodate up to 50 students; if more than 50 people wish to attend we shall schedule a second session from 8:00 to 9:00 pm. If you wish to attend please RSVP by hitting “Reply” to this message. [Please provide your full name in your reply.]
We shall meet on WebEx Training Center. If you have a headset with a microphone you can participate orally, and if you have a webcam you can be seen as well. If not, you can ask questions using the chat features. It’s a good idea to sign on to the session 15 minutes early to make sure that you can connect and your equipment works.
