As I have threatened, a few days ago, I sent emails individually nagging colleagues to send me their recent DR syllabi so that I can update the syllabus page on the DRLE website.

Thanks so much to those who already responded.

If I sent you an email and you haven’t responded yet – don’t make me send the dogs after you.

If I didn’t send you an email, please accept my sincere apologies – and hereby consider yourself nagged.

I would like to get the syllabi by Monday, June 22, if possible, so that I can unveil the new webpage in time for people to refer to them as they prepare their courses for the fall.

Please include this publication agreement. You can use a single form for all your syllabi.   If possible, it would be great if you would sign, scan, and email it.   But you can mail or fax it if you prefer.

Of course, we will include bread-and-butter courses like ADR survey, negotiation, mediation, and arbitration.

We would also like to include more exotic courses including, but not limited to collaborative law, comparative and/or international DR, dispute system design, and online dispute resolution, among others.

We will also include courses on traditional subjects that include significant DR elements.   For example, we will include family law, labor law, and pretrial litigation courses fitting this category.

Some of you have colleagues who frequently teach DR (including adjuncts) but, shockingly, do not subscribe to Indisputably or the DRLE listserv.

Please pass this along to them, with instructions for subscribing to the listserv.   (To subscribe to the blog, click the button in the banner at the top of the page.)

FYI, we are limiting the syllabi to courses taught at US law schools. Although it would be great to include syllabi from other disciplines and/or countries, that’s too much for us to manage.

If you have any questions or want to discuss this, please let me know.
