Laurie Besden, Esq., Executive Director of Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers (LCL) of PA, will be available for virtual one-on-one sessions on Wednesday, November 13, via Zoom. Sign up for a confidential meeting with Laurie.

Laurie offers confidential, discreet, and private sessions to discuss any type of addiction, alcohol issues, mental health disorders, stress, or depression – about yourself or others for whom you are concerned. She can also provide literature or other resources to address any ethical or bar application-related questions. All communications are confidential, and there is no record of the time with her. Other than communicating Laurie’s availability, no member of the law school administration is involved.

LCL is a non-profit, completely confidential resource that helps lawyers and law students who are dealing with issues related to alcohol, drugs, depression, and other serious emotional challenges. Left untreated, these conditions will sabotage a student's law school performance and jeopardize their admission to the bar.

Halloween 2024

 Halloween is almost upon us, and we invite you to dress up for the day. That’s right! On Thursday, October 31st, we encourage you to liven up the building with your best costumes. Faculty and staff will be keeping an eye out for and offering silly prizes for best outfits (individual and group categories, with special shout-outs to those of you who think up awesome law-related costumes!).

Dear students:

The law school is excited to host our fourth annual Halloween celebration! We know how hard you all work and are excited to enjoy a day that brings back some fun.

First: costumes! We encourage costumes, especially those related to law & legal themes. Deans will have little prizes for great costumes, so be sure you show off around the building!

When you arrive to the building on Thursday 10/31 feel free to grab a Halloween “passport” from the stations located in the lobby as well as the 2nd and 3rd floor galleries.

These passports tell you which suites/offices are hosting trick or treat stations. Note that the Undergrad Program at 3401 Market St., Suite 202 will also be participating!

For every suite you visit, get a sticker for your passport as well as some treats.

Drop off completed passports in the lobby at the end of the day and be entered in a drawing for a small prize.

In addition to the suites, plenty of individual faculty will host trick or treating at their offices. Look for the pumpkin on doors throughout the building.

Please ONLY visit those doors marked with a pumpkin! Otherwise folks may be in meetings, giving presentations, or doing other important work, so be respectful!!

What makes a good costume? Be thoughtful and sensible. Remember that you will still be attending classes and interacting with others in the building. Avoid costumes that make us question your character and fitness, such as using someone's ethnicity/culture/religion as a costume, making light of serious social issues, and so on. Keep things fun, light, and appropriate so everyone can enjoy the day. And please refrain from simulated or real weapons as part of a costume because putting us on lockdown will harsh everyone’s fun!

We can’t wait to enjoy the day with you,
Deans Corrigan, Boardley, and Oates

Research Assistant for Professor Fernando J. Loayza Jordán - Project: Contesting the Fiscal Social Contract

 I am looking for a research assistant for a project that investigates taxation as a social phenomenon. Taxes do much more than move wealth around: they shape how we perceive ourselves and how we connect with our political communities.

From Professor Fernando J. Loayza Jordán

I am looking for a research assistant for a project that investigates taxation as a social phenomenon. Taxes do much more than move wealth around: they shape how we perceive ourselves and how we connect with our political communities. This research project will study the features of the US fiscal social contract (how US citizens are part of the social contract through paying taxes and voting on taxes) and how it impacts and constrains the US tax policy debate.

The time commitment will be between 6-8 hours weekly, including a weekly meeting with me. Your background in social sciences is more relevant than your knowledge of tax law, so feel free to apply even if you haven't taken tax law courses. Students who qualify for Study Work funding are preferred. If you are interested, please send me your resume and cover letter at fjl38@drexel.edu.

Presentations for Department of Justice’s Honors Program, Summer Law Internship Program (SLIP), and Tax Division

 You're invited to join the Division for a virtual presentation on the Department of Justice’s Honors Program and Summer Law Internship Program (SLIP) positions.

You're invited to join the Division for a virtual presentation on the Department of Justice’s Honors Program and Summer Law Internship Program  (SLIP) positions.

During the presentation, DOJ members will discuss tips for applying to Honors Program and SLIP positions and the Tax Division generally—which is one of the best-kept secrets in the Department. For example, the Tax Division was the second highest ranked  organization within the Department of Justice in the 2023 Best Places to Work in the Federal Government Rankings. Our advice is likely to be useful in applying to other DOJ components through the Honors Program, too.

Tax courses or experience are NOT required! The Tax Division, primarily located in Washington, D.C., represents the United States in criminal and civil litigation around the country. Tax Division attorneys are immediately assigned cases and given hands-on litigation opportunities that are virtually unmatched in other private or public sector roles. We strive to build a collegial working environment that reflects the diversity of America, and we welcome applications from candidates of every background. 

We will present four sessions in August, before the SLIP and Honors Program applications are due on Tuesday, September 3. All law students are welcome to attend any of these presentations (and the presentations will all cover the same content). The information for joining each presentation is below. 

Information for Joining the Tax Division’s Presentations

The presentation will take place on DOJ’s virtual WebEx platform. You can also join by phone by calling 415-527-5035 and entering the meeting passcode. No need to RSVP, just show up.

  • Wednesday, August 21, 12:30-1:30 pm EDT via Webex
  • Thursday, August 22, 7:00-8:00 pm EDT via Webex

Spring 2025 Schedule

We are happy to provide you with early notice of the Spring 2025 schedule! We hope this will help you to identify any conflicts that may affect how you move forward with the Fall while there is still time to add and drop.

We are happy to provide you with early notice of the Spring 2025 schedule! We hope this will help you to identify any conflicts that may affect how you move forward with the Fall while there is still time to add and drop.

The full schedule with credits, notes, and descriptions is available on the University’s Term Master Schedule. You can view the visual grid version of the schedule, as well as the Spring exam schedule, on DragonNet.

Please do review all notes. For instance, there are several courses that meet for less time than their credits would suggest (e.g., 4-credit Business Organizations meeting about 3 hours per week) because that time is added to the out-of-class work in the form of problem sets, simulations, and other assignments. In these cases, you will see a note under Section Comments that says “Substantial asynchronous work required.”

Course registration for Spring 2025 will take place in October, and we will send more detailed information about dates and processes closer to that time.
