Learn about becoming a 2021-22 student member of one of the Austin Inns of Court! The Inns provide excellent opportunities for law students to meet and be mentored by local judges and practicing attorneys across a range of fields. Each Inn meets monthly, fall through spring. Students are assigned to a team of attorneys and judges, which meets to prepare and then present a program at one of the Inn meetings. This is an excellent opportunity for students to socialize with and be mentored by practicing attorneys and judges.

The Inns will hold an information session for law students on Monday, April 26 from noon to 12:45 via Zoom. The meeting will include short panel discussion and breakout sessions with Inn members. Register by April 25 to receive a link to the Zoom meeting. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

Growing evidence regarding persistent disparities in school discipline poses serious implications about the impact of the educational experience for youth. Statewide, Black students in Texas are approximately two times more likely to experience in-school suspensions (I.S.S.), nearly three times more likely to experience out-of-school suspensions (O.S.S) and are admitted to either alternative or juvenile justice education programs at higher rates than white students. Join IUPRA’s moderated panel discussion around this issue with a focus on equity and school- community solutions.

Moderator: Brion Oaks, Chief Equity Officer, City of Austin

Panelists:

Kevin Foster Ph.D., School Board Member, Austin Independent School District

Andrew Hairston, Director, Justice Education Project, Texas Appleseed

Natosha Daniels, Round Rock Black Parents Association

Farah Muscadin, Director, Office of Police Oversight, City of Austin
