2015 Media Law School

University of South Carolina

The 2015 Media Law School, hosted by the University of South Carolina School of Law and College of Information and Communications and sponsored by the American Board of Trial Advocates, will provide selected journalists with the opportunity to develop a better understanding of the key stages of civil and criminal proceedings and to learn enough basic law to report accurately on many important issues in the news.

From Sept. 30 to Oct. 3, approximately two dozen journalists who are selected as 2015 Media Law School Fellows will not only receive instruction from law professors and experienced lawyers, but they will have an opportunity to interact with and ask questions freely of the instructors. 

Best of all, the school is able to provide this experience with no registration fee, no housing cost, and with a $400 travel allowance to help offset the cost of coming to Columbia.  Fellows will stay three nights at The Inn at USC Wyndham Garden and classes will be held within walking distance of the Inn on the campus of the University of South Carolina.

Deadline to apply is Aug. 15.  For more information: http://www.law.sc.edu/media_law_school/
