Prof. Reich Paulsen Leads Trial Workshop in Uzbekistan

Associate Dean Sharon Reich Paulsen recently led a trial practice workshop for law students and faculty members from Tashkent University in Uzbekistan. The workshop provided a vehicle for teaching about hallmarks of the American trial system in both theory and practice, and concluded with 22 students putting on a full trial in front of a jury made up of Uzbek law professors. The workshop also provided an opportunity to showcase experiential learning techniques to the law faculty. The trip was arranged by the NGO Regional Dialogue with funding from the State Department. Two adjunct professors from Boston College also participated.
