Strategizing with Distance Education at a Time of Uncertainty
Our panel of four deans with experience in distance education shared how they are planning for the possibility of continued disruptions to the summer and fall academic terms. The panel also discussed the potential impacts of COVID-19 on summer employment, fall externships, and bar exams. The discussion also included strategic planning for flexible, high-quality legal education, with 2020 continuing to be hallmarked by uncertainties. Admissions, curricular coverage, student support, assessments, and innovation were also covered.

• Dean Megan Carpenter, New Hampshire
• Dean Darby Dickerson, Illinois (Chicago)
• Dean Erin O’Connor, Florida State
• Chancellor John Pierre, Southern University Law Center
This engaging one-hour discussion included a Q&A period at the end.
