4 Zesty CLE September Law Happenings
Summer draws to a close, calling students from their interim routines back to
the lecture halls of law school. And for the associates on the block, the end
of summer signals, well...no wearing white to work after Labor Day? Anyway,
September may sound the gong on carefree days of summer, but it also holds the
promise of stimulating law events across the country. Symposia to
conferences, legal employment to nutritional law--there is no shortage of subject
topics or types of gatherings spanning coast to coast
