<p>Zoom Webinar (registration required, register&nbsp;<a href="https://rwu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_I-3FkTBySTivY6LPYkO15Q#/registration">here</a>)</p>
<p><strong>Description</strong></p>
<p>Our last Integrating Doctrine &amp; Diversity Speaker Series program of the 2022-2023 academic year will be a one-on-one discussion with Dean Erwin Chemerinsky. Leaning into social justice topics and teaching diversity skills throughout the law school curriculum
    can cause disruption, trauma, and discomfort inside and outside the classroom, even when done with care and intention. In this conversation Dean Chemerinsky will share his thoughts, experiences, and advice about responding to classroom controversy.
    This promises to be a thoughtful and engaging event.</p>]]></description>
