The inaugural Sue Campbell Oration presented by\u00a0Professor Peter Joy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Published by the Journal of Professional Legal Education in 1991, Sue Campbell&#8217;s<em> Blueprint for a Clinical Program<\/em> highlighted the benefits of\u00a0clinical legal education to both students and staff alike.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of publication there were only two full-scale clinical legal education programs\u00a0operating in Australian Law Faculties \u2013 one at Monash, established in 1975 and the context of Sue&#8217;s discussion, and one established in 1981 at the University of New South Wales.<\/p>\n<p>Since that time, however, over 70% of Australia&#8217;s thirty-six law schools have developed clinical programs, with Sue&#8217;s article \u2013 and the strategies\u00a0it offered other faculties \u2013 truly serving as a blueprint for this expansion. Not only has clinical legal education expanded greatly in Australia, it has now spread throughout the world.<\/p>\n<p>The Susan Campbell Oration\u00a0will review the state of clinical legal education in Australia and elsewhere; evaluate the impact of the strategies that Sue set forth; discuss where\u00a0clinical legal education is today; and suggest a blueprint for a robust and innovative future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> Wednesday 11 May 2016<\/p>\n<p><strong>Time:<\/strong> 5:30-7:30pm<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venue: <\/strong>Monash Law Chambers, 555 Lonsdale St, Melbourne<\/p>\n<p><strong>RSVP: <\/strong>Wednesday 4 May 2016, register<strong> <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1moJdpk\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<em> <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Light refreshments will be provided.<\/p>\n<p>For further information please<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.monash.edu\/law\/about-us\/events\/the-susan-campbell-oration-blueprint-for-the-future-of-clinical-legal-education\">click here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
