For the fifth year, Mississippi State’s political science and public administration department is sponsoring the Bulldog Lawyer Continuing Legal Education Seminar. 

The daylong Oct. 9 program for university alumni will take place in Ballroom C of The Mill at MSU. Those interested in attending should be aware that the event occurs a day prior to the Bulldogs’ Saturday [the 10th] home football game with the Troy University Trojans.

The seminar offers six hours of continuing legal education credit, including one credit hour in ethics. The flat-rate registration fee is $225, and early sign-ups are encouraged.

In addition to various sessions, the provided lunch will feature remarks by MSU Men’s Head Basketball Coach Ben Howland.

Complete seminar details, including a registration form, are available at http://pspa.msstate.edu/pdf/continuing_legal_education_2015.pdf.

Whit Waide, an attorney now serving as an MSU political science instructor, said his department established the seminar in an effort to “create a network of MSU alumni attorneys and use that network to enhance our pre-law advising efforts.”
