2025 Law Review Symposium

The Art of Judging

Legal scholars and jurists will delve into the complexity of the judicial craft, discussing the intellectual, practical, and human dimensions of judicial work. The symposium will address decision-making, courtroom management, and writing, as well as the impact of evolving technologies on these core judicial functions. Additional focus will be given to the increasing challenges judges face in responding to litigants’ wellness issues, managing their own well-being, and maintaining the judicial persona—both inside and outside the courtroom.

Tentative Date: Friday, October 10, 2025

Sponsored by the University of Arkansas School of Law and the Arkansas Law Review.
