Shrader to Present at the National Association of Law Student Affairs Professionals' Conference

Cathleen Shrader was a presenter at the National Association of Law Student Affairs Professionals’ (NALSAP) Annual Conference in Indianapolis at the end of June. She presented with Bradley Skolnik,  Executive Director of the Indiana Supreme Court’s Office of Admissions and Continuing Education, and Nancy Vincent with the Illinois Board of Admissions to the Bar on the topic of “Learning from Bar Examiners: Strategies for Passing the Character and Fitness Standard for Bar Admission.” They discussed challenging cases for a board of law examiners, reviewed cases that require further scrutiny than the typical applicant, and provided insight on how students can prepare for an appearance before the Board of Law Examiners.
