About the Seminar:
Join the Education Law Committee for a dynamic seminar about what issues to watch for in 2024.

Whether representing plaintiffs or defendants, participants will acquire practical insights to effectively advocate for their clients in the contest of K-12 Title IX litigation.
The next segment will be an ethics hour covering the status of AI in the U.S. and other countries; and how AI and Generative Artificial Intelligence, also known as ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence), can assist lawyers and law firms automate some legal processes and save some time and effort. The last part of the ethics talk will provide information on what lawyers and law firms need to do to understand the dangers associated with AI (ASI) when no human impute is required or needed.

The speaker will provide a general background on Title IX's applicability to higher education, with a focus on both athletic equity and prevention of sexual assault and violence. The presentation will include discussion of current regulation, enforcement, and case law, as well as the practicalities of the campus Title IX grievance process.
