URGENT: The Akron Bar Association’s Street Law Program is looking for volunteers on Wednesday, November 2nd from 6:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. to chaperone a field trip to Columbus for a tour of the Ohio Supreme Court as well as a tour of the Ohio Statehouse. There will be a main chaperone to guide you in your duties. This is a terrific learning opportunity as we will be watching an oral argument as well have having a personal de-briefing session with the attorneys afterwards. Lunch is provided and attendance is at no cost to you. Volunteers will be chosen on a first come, first served basis. Please respond to streetlaw@akronbar.org no later than 6:00 p.m. Monday, October 31st if you would like to attend.
Protect Your Belongings
We would like to remind law students to never leave your valuables alone anywhere in the School of Law. Your textbooks, book bags, purses, laptops and other belongings can be easily taken in just “30 seconds.”
We welcome visitors to the School of Law and to the Law Library, both those associated with the University and those who are not. Having open doors, however, also means anyone can come into the building. It would be wise to always be careful and make it a habit to never leave your belongings unattended.
If you see suspicious behavior, please notify law school employees right away. You can call the University police yourself by dialing 330-972-2911 (if using a cell phone) or 911 if using a campus phone.
More information about campus safety here.
Thank you.
