March 10 – Webinar: Q&A with Christine Charnosky, Legal Ed Reporter at Law.com

Please join your AALS Institutional Advancement colleagues for a Q & A with Christine Charnosky the newly named Legal Education Reporter from Law.com. Christine is our law school go-to reporter for all our academic news! While she is new to the law beat, she has 20 years of college-level journalistic experience and is eager to meet as many contacts as possible during her first few months in the role.

Join this webinar to hear directly from Christine, learn how to pitch to her, understand the kinds of stories she is interested in writing, trends she is following, and much more. Liz Field will moderate our discussion. Please register and submit any questions in advance. Real-time questions will also be taken in the chat.
