Aaron Hubbard (’16) wrote a featured article, “Mediation and Religion: General Attitudes of Three Major Religions in the United States,” in the most recent issue of the Louisiana Bar Journal.
Hubbard was a student in the spring 2015 Civil Mediation Clinic. In this clinic, students are trained to mediate resolution of conflict and assist as mediators in civil cases. After training, faculty supervise students in mediating cases referred from the Baton Rouge City Court or other sources. The course covers the basics of negotiation theory, the role of the mediator and fundamental norms of mediation, the skills and process of mediation, and the ethics of mediation.
