This week, I picked up the plaques at Midwest Trophy and began preparing them to be shipped to the county bar associations. Even as small of a task as dropping off and picking up something at a local business requires public relations skills. It's important that the organization you are representing is viewed favorably by those who do business with it. The process of preparing all the follow-up materials for the Law Day contests will take a while, but by mid April, all winners should receive their awards. As another follow-up aspect to the Law Day contest, all teachers who participated will receive a packet including certificates and ribbons for the students who received honorable mentions along with a survey designed to measure their satisfaction with the contest. This job required getting together materials that I had already prepared and stuffing envelopes, basically, but it took hours to complete. It was a good lesson in realizing how every communication with target audiences is important and requires a lot of behind the scenes work... mostly done by interns, ha!
Something a little more exciting I got to do during week ten was research and write up a piece for the April OBJ to appear in the FYI section about the new dean of the OU College of Law, Joe Harroz. Next week the OBJ goes to press, so I also completed the compilation of the Bench and Bar Briefs section.
