E Fry is a go!
::jumping up and down:: I did it I did it I did it!
CRT class: great.
Subject: very interesting.
Topics covered: wow.
Readings: neato mosquito.
Prof: amazing.
Evaluation: problem.
The syllabus says: "... students will have an opportunity to grapple with moving the theory into the realm of legal practice. A practical application of its principles in a legal project with an advocacy organization, community group, non-profit organization or association or a government department will form a key component of the course. This can be a paper, brief, factum or research memorandum (with attached public education or other materials developed for the organization if applicable.)"
The course ends January 20, but we were given until February 15 to develop an idea with a community agency, and until April 11 to carry it out. This pleased the rest of the class, but did not please me; I wanted the course to be over when it was supposed to be over, and not drag on into the next term, where I'll have three other classes and the Law Review to work on. We barely made it through last term as it is; I was seriously debating dropping to two classes and the LR, instead of three, even before this.
Plus, there's the problem of how do you develop a project with a group or agency. The prof said that she had friends at LEAF who would be glad to take us on, but as I've heard nothing from them, I started to contact other agencies. 12 of them. Not a peep.
Until today. Elizabeth Fry Society of Ottawa is all jazzed about this, have a bunch of intersting proposals, and I've got till next Thursday to research the options and then settle on which one I want.
Yay!
::scurrying off to start research::
::scurrying back for a quick post-script::
So my response to everybody's very thought-provoking answers to the assisted reproduction questions will have to wait until tomorrow.
