Fill Out Your CSALE Survey of Instructors Now!

The Center for the Study of Applied Legal Education (CSALE) is finishing up the 7th iteration of its triennial law clinic and field placement survey. CSALE needs your help by participating in the Survey of Clinical Instructors, which is closing in the next few weeks so it can then combine the responses and issue its free survey report.

Data from the survey is critically important — faculty at almost every school have relied on CSALE data in considering their clinic and field placement course design and pedagogy, improving their employment conditions, and as a reliable resource for over 250 law review articles and books.

All full-time law clinic and field placement instructors, regardless of title or position, should have received an email invitation (from Bob Kuehn at WashU) with an individualized link to their CSALE Survey of Instructors in early February, with follow up reminders every two weeks. Please fill out the survey today and urge your colleagues to hurry up and do the same.

If you have any questions or cannot locate your survey invitation, contact Bob Kuehn, CSALE Vice President, at rkuehn@wustl.edu.
