凯伦·皮塔·鲁尔 to Lead Clinical & Experiential Programs
在担任临床和体验项目副院长五年后，佩吉·麦瑟尔将恢复全职教学。
Clinical Associate Professor 凯伦·皮塔·鲁尔 will take over the position of associate dean of clinical & experiential programs on July 1. Loor steps into the role following five years of exemplary service by current Associate Dean 佩吉·梅塞尔, who will resume full-time teaching.
Maisel于2014年7月加入波士顿大学法学院，担任临床与体验项目的首任副院长。 在她任职期间，她监督了体验式学习项目的扩展，包括四家新诊所——其中两家与麻省理工学院合作——以及四家新的实习诊所。 她培养的战略伙伴关系，无论是与外部合作伙伴还是在社会工作学院的波士顿大学社区内，都加强了诊所的工作，并为波士顿大学法学院的学生提供了补充和丰富传统理论课程的体验机会。
Her initiatives targeted toward small-and-medium-sized law firms and legal offices in for-profit and nonprofit organizations have enhanced the school’s 校外实习期, and she led the faculty committee that developed the 律师项目, an innovative approach to teach critical skills in research, writing, client counseling, and oral advocacy to first-year students through simulations of real-world legal disputes. Maisel also led the law school’s initiatives to establish JD outcomes and assessment, including hosting a national conference and developing the first curriculum map.
This fall, Maisel will join the 民事诉讼与司法项目 and continue teaching a course on legal ethics and professional responsibility for students completing 校外实习期. She is also developing a course that will prepare students taking international placements in the Semester-in-Practice program. “波士顿大学法学院对临床和体验项目做出了真正的承诺，”她说。 “这是一个绝佳的机会，可以帮助我们制定创新举措，为学生提供高质量的培训。”
卡伦·皮塔·鲁尔（凯伦·皮塔·鲁尔）于2011年加入波士顿大学法律临床系，此前她曾担任佛罗里达国际大学法学院的临床副教授，负责监督在移民和忽视诉讼中代表无人陪伴移民儿童的法律学生。 她的法律生涯始于在华盛顿特区的公设辩护人服务处担任职员律师，在那里她代表贫困客户进行刑事审判和上诉事宜。 During her eight years at BU Law, Loor has taught and supervised student attorneys in the Defender Clinic of the BU 刑法临床项目, where her students represent indigent clients charged with crimes in the Boston District Court. 鲁尔还开发并教授了一个名为“移民经验的规范”的研讨会，通过法律的视角审视移民在美国社会面临的障碍。
An active member of the BU Law community, Loor has organized two 蒂华纳之旅, traveling with Julie Dahlstrom and Sarah Sherman-Stokes of the Immigrants’ Rights & Human Trafficking Program as well as several students to assist migrants seeking asylum. As an expert on the intersection of immigration and criminal law, she has 作证支持立法 that would make Massachusetts a sanctuary state. She encourages her students to use their education to join public conversations around current legal matters, and in 2017 supervised a group of students who 提交了法庭之友陈述书 in a first-of-its-kind case arguing that Massachusetts state and local law enforcement do not have the authority to detain a criminal defendant pursuant to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainer.
作为副院长，鲁尔将以麦塞尔教授的成就为基础，突出该学院在诊所内外的贡献。 她打算在体验项目之外加强与澳门威尼斯人注册网站的合作，为学生增加以实践为基础的课程。 鲁尔进一步希望为学生提供培训和支持，帮助他们成为有文化能力和了解创伤的律师。 她将制定计划，鼓励学生探索与贫困和种族有关的系统性问题，这些问题影响了许多诊所的客户群体。
洛尔说：“通过我们的诊所、实习和实习，波士顿大学法学院的学生可以学习、从事有价值的公共利益和服务工作，并与执业律师建立富有成效的工作关系。” “这些项目是我们与我们自己的社区联系和影响的一部分，因为波士顿大学法学院的学生在当地法院甚至世界各地实习，因为他们在国际法律服务项目中旅行。 我很荣幸和激动能与其他经验丰富的澳门威尼斯人注册网站一起工作，因为我们将继续实践，创新，并考虑我们的项目可以积极影响我们的学生和法律专业的方式，并赋予弱势客户群体权力。”
