International Conference on the Future of Legal Education

Steven D. Schwinn

Steven D. Schwinn joined the faculty at the John Marshall Law School in Chicago in 2007, where he teaches and writes on Constitutional Law and legal writing. He was previously on faculty at the University of Maryland School of Law, where he taught Constitutional Law, Poverty Law, legal writing, and a clinic on trade and poverty--the first law school clinic at the U.S. Court of International Trade. His teaching seeks to combine legal doctrine and theory with actual legal work, especially in the first year. He has thus taught first-year clinics in constitutional law, post-conviction remedies, and administrative law. Prior to entering academia, he was assistant general counsel at the Peace Corps.
