The Law & Entrepreneurship Clinic at the University of Wisconsin Law School.

"The L&E Clinic provides legal education on the role of lawyers in entrepreneurship, researches legal issues facing start-up businesses, and provides service to fledgling businesses."

(I'm excited about the location: the Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery, which is a very cool new building on campus that includes a beautiful "Town Center.")

Will there be a lecture on how to start a successful blog?

That is a great idea. The students can get an interns experience helping out start up businesses using consultants skills along with a familiarity with legal structures of businesses. Kind of like a Trade School and a job fair combined.

Is there an entrepreneurship program at the UWM business school (if there is a UWM business school)? I took an entrepreneurship class about 2 1/2 years ago and we read a good bit about programs for businesspeople to help them start their own companies.

If so, this would be a perfect complement to it.

Hey, they should teach me how to monetize this thing! It's not easy.

We call it "UW." UWM would mean UW-Milwaukee around these parts.

And yes, there's a big joint program in entrepreneurship that combines the business school and the law school.

The name of the clinic is a bit of a misnomer. It's really about having students provide legal services at a fairly basic level to folks wanting to start a business but who lack the financial means to obtain legal services otherwise. Perfectly good thing to do, but the "entrepreneurship" is all at the client level -- not much "law and ..." there.
