Congratulations are once again in order for Ron Staudt, Director of Chicago-Kent’s Center for Access to Justice & Technology, whom the ABA Journal honored in its "Legal Rebels" series.

We at CALI have been thinking a lot about the future of legal education.

John Mayer, our Executive Director, compiled this fairly comprehensive collection of links to articles, books, blog posts and other materials that relate to how things are changing in legal education, law practice, and higher education.

We'd love to hear your thoughts on the Future of Legal Education and other suggested readings. Tweet us @CALILawSchool.

We're starting webinars again next week after a little break. We're excited to bring you some great content and guest presenters in the next few weeks -- as always on Fridays at 3 PM EDT. Click the links to reserve your spot:

Oct 23: Advanced Twitter (Twitter from a Law School Communications Director's Perspective Part II)

We've recently added a new feature to the new website: CALI Puzzles.

Because of the tight job market, many CALI member schools have asked us if their recent grads can continue to access CALI Lessons to keep skills sharp.

We are happy to announce that CALI will, by default, extend CALI Lesson access for at least six months after students at member schools have graduated.

To access CALI Lessons, recent grads can simply login at www.cali.org using the same CALI account they used while in school.

There is often confusion surrounding the CALI authorization code among new students. Here are a few tips and a 2 minute video that should help avoid confusion. Please pass them on to your students:
