Illinois Academic Fellowships

posted 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.

Bankr-L

  • As a public service, the University of Illinois College of Law operates Bankr-L, an e-mail list on which bankruptcy professionals can exchange information. Bankr-L is administered by one of the Credit Slips bloggers, Professor Robert M. Lawless of the University of Illinois. Although Bankr-L is a free service, membership is limited only to persons with a professional connection to the bankruptcy field (e.g., lawyer, accountant, academic, judge). To request a subscription on Bankr-L, click here to visit the page for the list and then click on the link for "Subscribe." After completing the information there, please also send an e-mail to Professor Lawless ([email protected]) with a short description of your professional connection to bankruptcy. A link to a URL with a professional bio or other identifying information would be great.
