New Faces, New Ideas - CU Boulder Mini Law School

Published: May 8, 2025

Exterior of building at University of Colorado Boulder campusThis fall, the University of Colorado Law School is excited to present a brand-new program highlighting six new faculty members joining Colorado Law this year. This six-week series is designed specifically for non-lawyers who are interested in learning more about different areas of the law.  There will be no homework, tests, or required reading, so you can fully enjoy and focus on learning!

As an added benefit, all participants will be able to apply for free to the University of Colorado Law School's JD, LLM, or MSL degree programs this admissions cycle. 

We anticipate people will be able to participate in this program in three ways:  (1) live, in person in Boulder, Colorado at the University of Colorado Law School at 6pm MT each week; (2) live, online, via Zoom livestream at the same time; or (3) at your convenience, via a recording of each week's panel that will go out approximately 2 days after the live session has concluded.
