The Law Alumni Association Board of Directors will be planning other events for the remainder of 2001. Your suggestions are welcome and encouraged. Executive Committee Elections will take place during the Law Alumni Association Annual Meeting, Saturday, May 5, 2001. This program is designed to highlight various procedural requirements for probate of wills, intestate administrations and adult guardianships with a discussion on the effect of new or proposed legislation. The objective of this presentation is to provide estate practitioners with general knowledge of what to do and not to do in basic probate procedure, particularly with an emphasis on the perspective of the bench.
Registration is required.
Please join us as we mark the creation of this program, in which joint degree students can earn the J.D. from Roger Williams and the M.S. from the University of Rhode Island in four years. By combining the resources of the two institutions, we will be offering students a unique opportunity for interdisciplinary study of the increasingly complex employment relationship. We look forward to future opportunities to bring together leaders from unions, employees, and companies, as well as representatives of plaintiff and defense perspectives, for formal and informal discussions of labor-management relations. Stewart Schwab is Professor of Law at Cornell University, where he teaches, among other subjects, Employment Law, Labor Law, Employment Discrimination, Comparative Labor Law, and Law and Economics. He is the author of dozens of articles addressing a range of labor and employment law topics, many of which reflect Professor Schwab's use of economic and empirical tools.
