Very thought provoking and worthwhile. There is a typo on a slide that talked about "seeding" authority; it should be "ceding."

Well done Tracy!

Great content- the course covered a lot of fundamental legal concepts and how those relate to current events/current concepts.

I enjoyed this. It brought up a lot of points that I haven't considered before.

Interesting - Enjoyed chance to think about justice in our society in such a macro perspective. Ofthen feel like daily oractice is so micro.

I failed to see how some things directly related to each other, interesting for the most part.

Excellent presentation. Thank you, Professor McCormack.

Excellent speaker.

Really enjoyed it. Agree that attys tend to get tunnel vision to only the areas they practice in. Especially liked the portion that focused on the demise of the jury system and rise of the arbitration, with the subsequent loss of oversight.

Truly inspirational speaker

Thank you for providing this free CLE. The speaker was very clear and thorough in her comments and presentation.

great course

Great course!

Professor McCormack was a great speaker. She raised some fresh ideas that I hadn't considered. I thought the comment on the jury pool being assigned by how long they had been on the role, and how that could have impacted tort reform was particularly thought provoking. The audio quality and slides were easily to follow in the online format.

Very thought provoking.

Excellent program

Very well presented and timely given the current socio-political climate.

Really well done!

This was a really engaging and timely approach to the topic that I enjoyed viewing -- compelling and insightful approach to the topic. Thanks.

Excellent topic, presentation, and slides--worth my time!

Thought-provoking. Excellent

The topic was very thought-provoking. The presentation was excellent.

Excellent course.

This presentation was truly inspiring. Prof. McCormack made me want to be a better lawyer. She is a voice of reason in this age of insanity.

Excellent presentation.

I thought the presentation was insightful, well-organized, and thought-provoking. It connected a lot of aspects of the legal profession which I had not considered in this particular context.

This is one of the most thought-provoking ethics presentations I have ever heard. Excellent and motivating rather than just "checking the boxes." Thank you for making it available.

Quite informative and helpful in covering new era issues in Ethics.

Great program. Outside of the box

Very good presentation.
