I haven’t even finished my first year of law school and I’m already attending CLE events!
Next Tuesday I’m going to my first CLE event on womens’ issues and discrimination. There is an official press release, but I like the description from the live webcast better1:
Despite progress, evidence of gender disparity remains. Yet female professionals from all disciplines wield power in shifting societal perception through their ability to control their own narratives. This webcast examines the impact female role models in theater, society and law can have on gender bias.
Guthrie artists will read scenes from the provocative play Third by Wendy Wasserstein. Third tells the story of Professor Laurie Jameson, whose life is thrown into disarray when she accuses a student of plagiarism. In challenging the student, who in turn charges her with reverse discrimination, Laurie is forced to question her aggressively feminist ideology, standards and family relationships.
A panel of prominent female leaders and artists, including Sally Wingert who played Professor Jameson in the Guthrie’s 2008 production of Third, will lead the discussion.
I wonder if my friends over at fresh.mn will promote this too. It will have appeal beyond the legal community…
