Ep. 21 - Dyszlewski & Tung: Integrating Diversity Into Law School Courses (Part 1)

Welcome back to a new year here at the Law School Lounge! We are kicking off 2024 with a three-part series inspired by the Integrating Doctrine and Diversity volumes, co-edited by today's guests Professors Nicole Dyszlewski of Roger Williams University School of Law and Genevieve Tung of the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School. In Part One, we discuss the impetus for their work, goals they set with this project, and how the information is meant to be a direct resource for law faculty looking to enhance diversity and equity inclusion within the doctrinal classroom. We have some laughs along the way, but at the heart of this episode is a candid discussion of what it is like to work in the DEI space, how to do so in a respectful and amplifying way, and how to handle bumps throughout the journey.If you want to snag a copy of these two volumes, you will find them at the links below.Integrating Doctrine and Diversity: Inclusion and Equity in the Law School Classroom, available here.Integrating Doctrine and Diversity: Beyond the First Year, available here.Also, if you haven't already, head over to the Integrating Diversity Speaker Series recordings and resources, available on the Roger Williams University School of Law website.You can learn more about Professor Nicole Dyszlewski here and about Professor Genevieve Tung here.We can't wait to see you next week for Part Two!
