Bankruptcy

Illinois Academic Fellowships

By Bob Lawless

The University of Illinois College of Law has just announced a program where persons looking to enter the legal academy can spend one or two years in residence. The program's goal is to help prepare persons for tenure-track positions at leading law schools.

Given our blog's focus on credit and bankruptcy matters, I was somewhat reticent to make that announcement here, but I have heard from Credit Slips readers who are aspiring legal academics. Rather than make an elaborate post, I'll just direct interested persons to the web page describing the program. The Illinois Academic Fellows program is not at all subject-matter specific, but Credit Slips readers might have a particular interest because of our law school's Program in Business Law and Policy, which would offer numerous events and opportunities for interaction with senior scholars in business and commercial law. If any of our readers have an interest in this program and have any questions, please feel welcome to contact me.
