VAPs also are invited to attend faculty meetings, participate in faculty workshops, and are given opportunities to engage in mock job talks, mock job interviews, and scholarship reviews. Alumni of our VAP program have gone on to hold tenure-track appointments at other esteemed law schools, including the University of Florida, Washington and Lee University, University of Alabama, and Temple University.
The position is a 10-month, terminal visiting position beginning in the summer of 2017. Salary is commensurate with experience and VAPs receive health and dental benefits.

You guys should hire a struggling Solo or ordinary State's Attorney to teach this.
Criminal Law Curricula: How to get a Mope out of Jail. 2.How to try a DUI 3. Prosecute a Domestic Battery and Protective Order. 4. Guns, drugs and Gangbangers. That same solo can teach Law and Economics too. How to get five bills per court appearance from that Gangbanger. It's my Economics that counts as a Lawyer. Got to pay those loans. Law and MICRO Economics. Mrs. Deep State prefers me to pay the bills. Very simple.
And that applies to Legal Writing keep it simple too. A high volume municipal court trial judge (whose wife yelled at him last night, etc.) has no time nor patience to read a verbose law review and magnum opus gorgeous brief. A one page motion with three short paragraphs will get your foot in the door. If you can't say it in five words, "what the hell are you trying to say?"
