Law Teaching
On March 9, Professor Jon Bauer will participate in a panel discussion as part of Yale Law School’s Law Teaching Series.
Since 2002, Professor Bauer has directed the Asylum and Human Rights Clinic, a clinical program in which law students represent refugees who have fled from persecution and are seeking asylum in the United States. He has frequently addressed bar groups and social service organizations, and testified before legislative committees, on issues relating to anti-discrimination law, refugees, legal ethics, and the provision of legal services to the poor. His writings include an article on clinical pedagogy (co-written with Professor James H. Stark) that has been included in the Clinical Legal Education Association's bibliography of basic readings for new clinical teachers, and a study of discrimination against people with disabilities in the bar admissions process, published in the UCLA Law Review.

Now she is on the verge of fulfilling that dream. Because of those varying interests, Pulaski wanted to make sure her time at the Law School included experiencing the law, not just studying it.
