ATTN: 2nd, 3rd and 4th year students

Professors Morath and Schiavone are interested in your thoughts on legal writing!  They will be conducting an anonymous survey of upper level students who have completed both LARW I & LARW II. The data will be used in an empirical paper to be published in the near future.

The surveys will be distributed on Thursday November 15, 2012 during two sessions, so that both day and evening students can participate.  Surveys will be conducted in W-210 from 12:15-1:15 p.m. and again in Room 167 from 5:15-6:15 p.m.  The survey should take about 20 minutes to complete.

FREE PIZZA for any upper level student who comes to fill out a survey!

Community Service Limited Means Opportunity!

Three volunteers needed to help with the 4th Annual Christmas Uncorked event on December 8 from 7pm-11pm at Uncorked Wine Bar in Akron. Christmas Uncorked is an annual fundraiser that features live Christmas music, wine specials, a silent auction and a great night out. All of the proceeds from the event are donated to the St. Bernard Hunger Program, which serves meals to over a thousand people in need throughout the Akron community every month. Volunteers would be needed from 6:00pm-10:30pm (or so) on the day of the event to help with the setup, assisting of guests, manning a stereo while musicians are taking breaks and any other issues that might arise. The dress is cocktail attire. This will be a fun opportunity for students to earn required community service limited means hours while enjoying a great night out and helping a great cause.

If interested please contact Kyle Vuchak at 716-479-5194 or kvuchak@gmail.com.
