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

Very informative and well organized, notwithstanding the title of this presentation.

Interesting panels. The last one w Judge Hughes was a bit too conversational (he is funny, I did like that) and could've had a bit more discussion of maritime law. The first panel could've just been dubbed an intro to state court for federal practitioners, lol. Not much maritime. Love all the written materials!
