We also have an opportunity for students to attend the meeting for free if they volunteer. We ask our volunteers to commit to a certain time period. When helping with programming during the day, volunteers assist with program set-up (speaker tent cards and gifts) and CLE (Continuing Legal Education) sign-in. After the program, volunteers assist in handing out CLE paperwork to attendees. During the program, volunteers are free to sit in on sessions (as long as you’re keeping an eye out for late comers, questions, etc). We also ask our volunteers to help ensure programs end on time by informing program chairs when their time is coming to a close. A volunteer instruction sheet will be available at each program room and section staff will be roaming and available for questions.
