will be visiting the law school to take part in a special seminar with
Professor Cross. The seminar will take place from noon to 1:30 in Room

by at noon to greet the visitors. There is no need to stay the entire
time, just for a few minutes.

Class Ranks are now available. To obtain your class rank email Dean Sealing from your @louisville.edu account. Contact Dean Sealing at Keith.Sealing@Louisville.edu Dean Sealing WILL NOT send your class rank to private accounts such as Gmail or Yahoo. This is a security measure for your ...protection, as there is no way to confirm your true identity on these private accounts and we cannot release your rank to anyone other than you without your written permission. For the same reason, phone requests will not be accepted. You will be given two class rankings, one based your status as a full-time (day) or part-time (night) student, and one representing a combination of full- and part-time students with the same class status as you based upon the number of credits completed. All of the following calculations are based on the number of credits you completed by the beginning of this semester. The hourly breakdown is as follows:

Animal Law Moot Court Results
The Animal Law Moot Court Competition was held at Harvard University
this past weekend. The University of Louisville sent two moot court
teams: Lauren Bean/Rexena Napier and Sarah Haegele/Melissa McHendrix.
Additionally, Ebert Haegele competed in the closing argument
competition. All competitor...s performed very well and impressed the
judges. Final scores are not out yet, but unofficially both moot court
teams went 1-1 against top teams such as Duquesne, Berkeley (Winner of
Best Brief), and New Mexico. Out of 16 teams, only four make the
semi-finals and unfortunately neither UofL team advanced among such
tough competition.

Racial and/or Ethnic Minority $1,000 Scholarship Available!
The Louisville Bar Association is offering a $1,000 scholarship to a (1) second- or third-year student that is (2) a member of a racial and/or ethnic minority that has been under represented in the legal profession, (3) has a 2.50 or better GPA and (4) is a per...manent resident or citizen of the USA. This scholarship was announced previously but there were no applicants by the February 2nd postmark deadline. However, because of the weather the LBA has extended the deadline to February 9. Considering the dearth of applicants, if you meet the criteria you have a very good chance of winning the scholarship if you apply. We would hate to see $1,000 in cash go unclaimed! See Dean Sealing for the application.
