    How would you rate the value of the materials provided as part of the course?

    Well, it's a mixed bag. I did like the way that the two judicial panels were conducted and the judges actually were talking about practical tips and some of the internal processes of the court. Interesting. However, some of the new speakers were disappointing (specifically on the topics of statutory construction and "appellate tips" from an old practitioner). Seek out substitutes for next year.

    Always exceptional materials, content, and speakers.

    Very good.

    Best section was Beyond the Font Wars, super helpful.
