Lunch and Learn
Lunch and Learn
What is "Lunch and Learn"?
"Lunch and Learn" is a series of informal, interactive sessions where you can meet and have candid conversations with industry professionals, faculty and alumni. These sessions will cover a range of topics relevant to future careers.
What to Expect:
Personalized Insights: Get tailored advice and answers to your career-related questions in a more intimate setting.
Interactive Discussions: Participate in meaningful conversations about career paths, industry trends, and professional growth.
Networking Opportunities: Connect with peers and professionals who share your interests and goals.
How to Participate:
RSVP: An email will be sent closer to the event date. Please RSVP using the link sent in the email. Please remember that these discussions are meant to be small, so there will only be 10 slots per meeting. The sessions will be recorded and made available to students on the community resource site.
Prepare Your Questions: Think about what you want to discuss or any specific career concerns you have.

Virtual Book Club
Virtual Book Club
Did you know that Prof. Anderson (howard.anderson@purdueglobal.edu) hosts a monthly book club? In it, students consider famous works as future lawyers. Students read famous legal-related works as future lawyers. While your seminars discuss legal rules, the book club considers broader questions about legal history, professionalism, and justice. For example, why is the criminal standard of proof that of “proof beyond a reasonable doubt,” rather than something lower or higher? What makes a lawyer a “good” one? Is it ever “right” to do something “illegal”—or “wrong” to do something “legal”? Besides providing a forum to talk about such questions, the book club also aims, indirectly, to help students improve their writing. Good writers are good readers. The selections are examples of good writing that will help students develop an “eye” for editing their own work.
Meetings are open to everyone. Indeed, several regular participants are 1L students. The discussion is informal.
The meetings take place on Zoom, at the end of each month (on rotating Saturdays and Sundays). You can find the dates on our PGLS calendar or the PG 675 Brightspace Course. For those who cannot attend live, the meetings are recorded on the SBA Brightspace page.
