WINTER TERM – January 4 – January 13, 2023
The law school offers a Winter Term in conjunction with the Spring 2023 Semester, and all Winter Term courses will be held completely remotely. Credits earned over Winter Term are considered part of the Spring 2023 semester, and Winter Term tuition will be billed at the same time Spring 2023 tuition is billed. Registration for Winter Term opens at the same time as Spring 2023 registration. Students must include the credits in which they intend to enroll during Winter Term in their Spring 2023 semester course load calculations. Reminder: part-time students may be enrolled in a maximum of 12 credits for the Winter Term/Spring Semester combined, and full-time students may be enrolled in a maximum of 17 credits.
Not all Winter Term courses are open to first-year students. Winter Term courses that are available to first-year students are noted with an asterisk (*) below.
All winter courses count as Distance Education.
For planning purposes, students should expect to complete 20–30 hours of work outside class for each Winter Term course. There will be assigned reading prior to the first class for all courses. Please consult the course syllabi, once posted, for this and the other course requirements. All courses will be graded CR/NC (except as noted below), and will be considered in-class credits under Academic Regulation 3-3.1.

Notes
* Not all Winter Term courses are open to first-year students. Winter Term courses that are available to first‐year students are noted with an asterisk (*).
(N.1) This course is graded. The course will include a mix of class meetings via Zoom; outside-of-class individual and group work; and an individual coaching session with the instructor. The basic course is 1 in-class credit. Students may opt for 2 credits; the second credit is considered an out-of-class credit. Students opting for the 2-credit version of the course will have an additional outside-of-class project separately arranged with the instructor. All students will register in the 1-credit class, but may elect, after the first class and with the permission of the instructor, to increase to 2 credits. This course requires the purchase of a textbook, and there may be a $15 fee that each student will need to pay to complete an assessment exercise for the course called the “DISC” assessment. Each student will receive a customized report to assist in leadership development for this fee, and specifics will be discussed in the first course session.
