Emmanuel College Launches Graduate Certificate in Research Administration
October 06, 2008
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Bryan Mahoney
October, 6 2008 617-264-7725
BOSTON - Professionals working in the dynamic world of research administration impact some of the largest global health and social initiatives that are sponsored by the federal government. Emmanuel College is pleased to respond to the specialized needs of these administrators through the launch of its new Graduate Certificate in Research Administration.
New this fall, this six-course, 18-credit certificate program provides the opportunity for professionals who administer sponsored research programs at colleges, universities and hospitals to earn an academic credential and expand their professional networks. The flexible and innovative program features a cutting-edge approach, with a rigorous curriculum created as a partnership between Emmanuel College full-time faculty and sponsored research expert practitioners from the neighboring Longwood Medical and Academic Area (LMA) institutions and beyond.
"Our commitment in Graduate and Professional Programs is to respond to the needs of our professional students, while keeping a key link to the needs of their employers," said Dean of Graduate and Professional Programs Dr. Judy Marley. "We examined other programs for sponsored research professionals in Boston and while there were some programs dealing in the not-for-profit space, especially around community-based projects, community grants and arts administration, there were no graduate-level credentials that specifically focused on federally funded sponsored grants and contracts."
"Research administration is a growing profession in the Longwood Medical and Academic Area," she added. "With Emmanuel's strategic plan of expanding its partnerships with employers in the LMA through its Employer Connect, and with the opening of our new Academic Science Center in the spring of 2009, the Graduate Certificate in Research Administration was a natural fit."
The concept for the program originally came to Marley's attention after discussions with Jennifer Puccetti '89, the Director of Academic Administration in Harvard Medical School's Department of Global Health and Social Medicine. Puccetti serves as the department administrator managing the grants of Presley Professor of Medical Anthropology Dr. Paul Farmer, the keynote speaker during Emmanuel's 2005 Convocation, whose work in social medicine impacts health initiatives on a global scale.
Conversations on employee development needs in the field of research administration, the bodies of knowledge classically associated with professionals in the field and an assessment of professional association's non-credit offerings revealed a unique opportunity to build - with a graduate credential - an expanded base of highly qualified professionals in an untapped field.
"There was definitely a need to strengthen the field of research administration and to increase pipelines through Emmanuel College internships, to generate both today's and tomorrow's professionals in sponsored programs," said Puccetti. "As we began to reach out to others within Harvard Medical School and the Longwood Medical and Academic Area, we discovered there were many others who agreed and were willing to work with us to conceptualize such an offering. The vision was to bring professionals from both hospitals and universities together, with a goal of extended collaboration for increasingly complex sponsored projects."
Puccetti is one of the program's eight collaborators/content experts, a group that includes professionals from several Harvard University schools, Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Partners HealthCare. Utilizing extensive feedback from focus groups and professional associations in the field, each syllabus was developed to fit distinctly into a cohort model of six sequential graduate courses. Each course is delivered in an accelerated format of seven weeks and the certificate can be completed in just one year of part-time study.
"The need for a program such as Emmanuel's has been building for some time," said Vice President for Research Administration and Finance at Dana Farber Cancer Institute Mark Daniel, the collaborator/content expert for the "Financial Accounting for Sponsored Programs" course. "As someone who has worked in all aspects of this industry for many years and has trained many new staff during that period, I am excited to be a part of this groundbreaking program and a part of the faculty teaching this content."
Using studies, guest speakers and instructional technology platforms, the program's interactive sessions incorporate the critical facets of sponsored research administration, and include grant negotiations, pre and post awards, contract management, compliance, finance and ethical considerations.
Additionally, students who complete the Graduate Certificate in Research Administration may continue on to the Master of Science in Management program with a specialization in Research Administration by completing only six additional graduate courses.
Currently, 17 professionals representing some of the most prestigious hospitals and universities in the LMA are matriculated in the program's inaugural cohort group. A large number of these students are employed by Harvard School of Public Health, the renowned leader of efforts to advance the health of populations worldwide, which according to Marley, derives 80% of its operating budget through sponsored research, primarily contracts. These Harvard professionals' tuition is fully funded by their employer. The Graduate Certificate in Research Administration program not only allows Emmanuel to play a part in their global not-for-profit initiatives, but to expand the scope of the College's founding mission.
"The work of research administrators and sponsored research at institutions such as Harvard University, the Whitehead Institute and Partners Healthcare impacts society while aligning distinctively with Emmanuel College and the Sisters of Notre Dame's commitment to community and education," said Marley. "With this new offering we build on a tradition of collaboration via this transformative academic initiative which supports the sciences. The graduate courses within the program have the ability to influence sponsored research projects not just within the LMA, but nationally and even worldwide."
"As total research and development expenditures have grown tremendously over the past two decades across the country and even around the world in all areas of science and technology, the need for skilled and trained professionals to manage the administrative, legal and financial aspects of this business have grown as well," said Daniel. "I think Emmanuel College's Graduate Certificate in Research Administration program will become a key component in the set of resources that academic medical centers and research universities have to meet critical employee needs."

Royal Oak businesses float new event for Holiday Magic Parade
ROYAL OAK — If free parking and the 11th annual Holiday Magic Parade aren't enough to bring families downtown on Sunday, business owners are hoping a new event where they offer special deals and activities will.
During Parade-a-Palooza, about 40 restaurateurs and retailers will roll out the red carpet for everyone coming to welcome the man in the red suit.
The parade starts at 2 p.m. Sunday, which is a new day and time. For its first decade, the procession that brings 20,000 people to Washington Avenue was on a Saturday morning.
Parade-a-Palooza, which will go from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., is designed to give parade-goers reasons to come early and stay late. Children under the age of 12 will eat free at 10 restaurants and merchants are having sales, activities and giveaways.
Michele Beck, owner of That Girl Resale, 738 S. Washington, will give "Indian corn on a stick" to children who draw a picture or write what they are grateful for and put it on the store Thanksgiving tree starting at 1 p.m.
"It's yummy," Beck said of the lollipop-like treat made of popcorn, nuts and fruits held together with sugar.
Her shop is usually closed on Sundays because it is such a slow day for retailers.
"That and I need a day off," Beck added.
Shopkeepers asked for the parade to be moved to a Sunday, when parking is free, to increase foot traffic on their down day and finally it is happening, said Gary Baglio, owner of Five15 Mojo and president of the Royal Oak Retailers Association.
"We've been asking for this for four years because Saturday is already a good day for us and it makes sense to do it on a day when parking is free," he said. "People won't have to rush to their cars and plug meters, so we hope they stick around." Continued...
His store is discounting Christmas ornaments 25 percent. Shoppers also will find 25 percent off outerwear at Rise and 20 percent off cards at Pronto Corner Store, jumbo rolls of gift wrap at Write Impressions, hand-made jewelry at Noir Leather and pottery at Creative Art Studio.
Mar Vela Boutique is giving out candy. Children can make a card for $1 at Stella Boutique.
"I bought stickers and all kinds of scrapbook decorations and have envelopes so kids and adults can make something special," owner Linda Isrow said. "We're going to have snacks, too, and if someone buys an ornament they can personalize it for free."
Isrow said Sundays are hit or miss for her and have been quiet lately.
"We're supposed to have good weather Sunday so I hope a lot of people stop in," she said.
Dog owners often walk their best friends downtown during parades and next door to Stella Boutique they can get holiday pet photos for $5 at Bingo Pet Salon, which is donating all the proceeds to charity.
After the parade, children can visit Santa and Mrs. Claus from 3-5 p.m. at Emagine Theater, 200 N. Main, where little ones under 12 will eat free at Star Lanes. A shuttle will be stationed at Fifth and Lafayette streets to take parade-goers to the theater just east of 11 Mile Road.
Kids under 12 will eat free at BlackFinn, 530 S. Main; Blue Jeans Bar, 412 S. Washington; Café Muse, 418 S. Washington; Cantina Diablo's, 100 S. Main; Fifth Avenue, 215 W. Fifth; Lily's Seafood, 410 S. Washington; Pizzeria Biga, 711 S. Main; Red Fox Tavern, 100 S. Main, above Cantina Diablo's; and Rock on Third, 112 E. Third.
"Have breakfast or lunch, watch the parade and check things out," Baglio said. "Make a day of it."
All participating businesses will have a Parade-a-Palooza poster in the window and should have a bouquet of balloons out front.

Both districts varied less than 1 percent from where they were last year. Lee County added 59 students for a total of 7,177, while Tupelo lost 57 for an enrollment of 7,508.
Tupelo's enrollment includes the Early Childhood Education Center, its pre-kindergarten program for 4-year-olds. The district's K-12 enrollment is 7,235 students.
Lee County's largest growth came at Saltillo High School, which now has 925 students, or 49 more than last year. Guntown Middle, Mooreville High, Mooreville Elementary and Shannon Middle School each increased their enrollment by at least 20 students.
Lee County Superintendent Jimmy Weeks said the biggest reason for Saltillo High School's growth is large classes of younger students moving through the system and eventually reaching the high school.
For instance, he said, this year's senior class at the school has 190 students, while the eighth-grade class at Guntown Middle has 278 pupils.
"Even though we graduate 190 kids, if all of these eighth-graders come back next year and become freshmen, we are still picking up almost 90 kids at Saltillo High School," Weeks said.
"I think people have been moving into Saltillo for whatever reason over the last several years, whether they were coming for Toyota or buying a house in the county. A lot of them have school-aged kids, and each year we have seen more growth there."
Meanwhile, Verona's enrollment is 477 students, a decrease of 60 from last year. Shannon High School declined by 29 students.
The growth is leading the county to discuss plans to find more space.
"What it means for us in the long run is some additional school buildings or school campuses in the district," Weeks said. "In the short run, it means we need to get on the stick about our long-range plans and doing what we need to do to build another school campus."
Saltillo High School and Shannon High School particularly need more space, Weeks said. The plan may be to add to existing campuses rather than build new school campuses.
"I think, if we do determine we need to build a new school or two schools, it would require a bond issue at some point in time," Weeks said. "I'm not sure when, and I hope the economy would improve by then. Without a bond issue, I don't think there is any way we can build a school."
Tupelo's largest growth came at Tupelo Middle School, which grew by 82 students for a total of 1,127. Tupelo High School has 57 fewer students, or 2,095 total.
Tupelo's data compare Sept. 30 of this year to Sept. 19, 2011, so the year-to-year comparison may be slightly skewed.
"Looking at the data as a whole, we don't see any spikes or major decreases," said TPSD Assistant Superintendent Matthew Dillon. "We are pretty flat."
Dillon said district administrators continue to monitor the attendance throughout the year.
"We are always looking at those patterns to see if we have appropriate space and teacher units," he said.
The only place the district is currently looking to expanded is the Early Childhood Education Center, Dillon said. Tupelo is working on a grant request to help it do so.
"With ECEC, we want to get more students involved in that program so that we can get more students better prepared for kindergarten," Dillon said. "We are looking to expand that.
"Class sizes across the district are very good. We feel very confident in where we are across the district with our number and our capacity."

Looking for Robert McMillan who emigrated to Canada
Robert MCMILLAN was my Great Grandfather. He Fathered my Grandad named Hugh BELL. Born 1874 in Islay, Scotland.(he was illegitimate) Robert MCMILLAN wanted Hugh to bear his name so my Grandad became Hugh Bell MCMILLAN. Robert emigrated to Canada with his wife and I think he had two Daughters. I have no names for them though. He kept in touch with Hugh who married Mary Henderson NAISMITH and they had a large family, my Father being one of the children. Robert offered to pay for the whole family to go to Toronto, Canada but they declined as one of their children died and they didn't want to leave him buried on Scotland soil alone. I would be most grateful if anyone could shed on light on this for me. I have a lot of information concerning Hugh's family with his wife Mary if anyone needs help with that.
Thank you.

Durant Main Street's Music on Market Square (MOMS) returns at 7 p.m. Thursday on the square in downtown Durant. Grandpa's Neighbors will be performing.
Grandpa's Neighbors is a mother-daughter group that base out of Bennington. The girls play guitar, bass, mandolin, autoharp and fiddle. Grandpa's Neighbors sing in a style reminiscent of the country churches that were the backbone of every community in rural America. Their truth-filled messages always point back to Jesus, the source of their strength.
The inspiring, moving and often witty lyrics encourage both the mind and the soul. Their tight harmony is sweet and simple, not taking away from the message of the song and blessing anyone who appreciates music.

The Link Cuff
In the photograph, the late Robert Kennedy is wearing a shirt with link cuffs, the single fold cuffs from white tie that close with cufflinks instead of buttons. The look is cleaner than that of a turnback cuff.
The complication to the relatively rare link cuff has to do with the internal construction. According to Alex Kabbaz of Kabbaz Kelly, the cuff's interlining should be stiffer than it is for a button cuff since it must support the weight of a metal cufflink. A French cuff of course has the assistance of an additional fold of cloth for that purpose.
Ask your shirtmaker if he offers the style.

That picture warrants at least one trial shirt with that cuff configuration. Thanks for the inspiration. My shirtmaker also thanks you.

When I found that some single cuff shirts did not quite support the weight of metal cufflinks, I resolved the problem by using silk knot cufflinks instead.

Mickadeit: Chapman lessons transcend the law
By FRANK MICKADEIT
I graduated from law school on Friday. I learned a lot at Chapman, and much of it had nothing to do with the law. I learned what it was like, for example, when 180 people start to panic at the same time. You see people at their best, and a few at their worst. The night before graduation, we had a banquet. At every table I could have poin

I could write about all four items in my verbose and opinionated fashion but, right now, I want to talk about breastfeeding because almost everyone I talked to before delivery said it was one of the hardest parts of parenthood.
For most of our third trimester our "Princess Pea" had her head stuck firmly under my lower right rib, and on our 35th week we went for an ultrasound to check her position. While waiting for the results, we were pulled aside by the radiologist and told to go straight to Maternity.
As it turned out, I was in labour and The Pea wasn't doing so hot. Right after they hooked me up to the fetal heart monitor her heart rate dropped and the room filled with nurses and doctors who stripped off my clothes, put needles in my arm and started saying 'cesarean'. This happened two more times and before I knew it they had flipped me over with my ass in the air and rushed us to an OR.
Unfortunately, when The Pea was pulled out her Apgar score was 2 (very low) and after resuscitation she was taken to the NICU. I, on the other hand, was stitched up and sent to the recovery room to wait for 2 hours. Afterward, I was taken directly to my room.
The midwife tried, The Husband tried, and I tried, but it took another 6 hours for me to see our baby.
In that time The Pea was bottlefed 3 times. Thankfully, the midwife managed to get some donor milk from the BC Women's Milk Bank and The Husband did all the feedings.
Far from how I imagined it, the first time I was handed The Pea I was also handed a bottle.
Apparently, the doctors' orders were to bottlefeed every 3 hours because The Pea was premature, had low blood sugar, and needed more than colostrum. Instead of a bottle, we asked for a lactation aid to supplement while breastfeeding but was told it wasn't a good idea. We tried anyway and it didn't really work but we'd made our point. The next day a nasogastric tube was inserted for that very purpose.
Here's the thing - I didn't feel labour and did nothing more than lay on my back while a team of nurses and doctors did the work. Once the baby was out, more doctors and nurses took her and kept on doing the work. I kinda felt optional.
This was wrong.
And the only way I could prove it was
to get up
every 3 hours
and walk through the maternity ward,
past all the labouring women,
past all the new moms and babies,
past my nurse who told me more than once to go back to bed to rest,
and feed our baby.
And the only way I could prove it was

and walk through the maternity ward,

past my nurse who told me more than once to go back to bed to rest,
and feed our baby.
So, with the support of the midwife, The Husband, and the NICU nurses, that's what I did. Even after I was discharged, The Husband and I stayed. Living out of various hospital lounges, we fed our baby every 3 hours and soon the tube was out. We kept on for 7 days and were exhausted, but on that 7th day we took home an entirely breastfed baby.
And she thrived.
Now, I'm a health professional and this experience made little sense to me. I know the "breast is best", especially for premature babies, and that those same babies have a lower breastfeeding rate.
In my years as a community pharmacist I've talked to countless breastfeeding moms. I've attended Le Leche League meetings. I've read books like Dr. Jack Newman's Guide to Breastfeeding. I know the importance of feeding shortly after delivery and not separating mom and baby.
I had a supportive husband and a mom who breastfed all her babies, including twins.
I mean, come on, I even had a midwife.
And we still had a hard time breastfeeding. Through this we learned that not everyone is on board with the boob. However, when the time came we knew what we needed to do and we did it. And would do it again and again because, you know what? The boob rocks and The Pea has some chubby cheeks to prove it.

A few weeks ago I wrote about a new book coming out called Drinking Vancouver, which is about great places to drink hereabouts. I hadn't got my hands on it yet, but I still wrote about it because it was said to have a strong focus on BC beer. Also, I knew it was written by John Lee, author of the Lonely Planet Vancouver City guides, so it must be good.
Last week, Emily from Touchwood Editions, publishers of the book, let me know that there is going to be a launch party for Drinking Vancouver at the Alibi Room on Thursday the 28th from 6-8PM. There will be books on sale and you may even get to meet the author. Even better, this event is open to all comers. Check out the Facebook page for the event here.
With sharp, witty reviews of the best spots in town to slake your thirst, DRINKING VANCOUVER is the pocket-sized booze bible for locals and visitors craving a night out on the town. Written and compiled by travel and feature writer John Lee, this book is handily divided into eleven neighbourhoods from the heritage bars of Gastown to the slick joints of Yaletown to the gritty pubs of the Downtown Eastside. You'll find special sections with top drinking, dining and ambience suggestions, as well as recommended watering holes for the next time you're on the road in other parts of British Columbia.
With Vancouver's long-overdue bar renaissance upon us, this is the first hands-on guide to toast the city's newly hot bar scene.
Maybe I'll see you there?

Well, that was one of the worst Bears games I've seen. Ever. From the very beginning, it looked like they weren't even TRYING. WTF?
I've seen enough of Jason Campbell. If I remember correctly, Josh McCown did well for us last year. I don't care how green he is-- he can play better than Campbell. AND... McCown actually tries to win.
But I don't expect a change. Lovie is still stubborn as hell.
Here's the main thing I'm curious about-- Could it be that the Bears are giving up because they think Cutler will be out for an extended amount of time? Little else could explain their absolute piss poor stinking pile of crap play. The Bears are a better team than we saw tonight.
I hope I'm wrong about Jay. With that shitty line, he is the only guy who can take this team anywhere.
But if no Cutler next week, we should go with McCown.

Early start subdues Black Friday crowds, long lines (WITH VIDEO)
SARATOGA SPRINGS — Ann Marie Hatch ran the Black Friday marathon to end all marathons.
At 5 a.m. Thursday, she got up to cook Thanksgiving dinner. After a long day in the kitchen, she went to Bennington, Vt., to be on hand for a Wal-Mart sale at 8 p.m., but stayed out shopping until well past midnight.
Friday morning, following a few hours of sleep, she was in Saratoga Springs for another sale at Kohl's.
"I had a strategy," the Hoosick Falls resident said.
Hatch was among the thousands of people who descended on area stores to kick off the 2012 Christmas shopping season. However, much of the mad rush and craziness — people camping out in long lines — from past years was missing because of stores that opened Thursday night, taking some of the pressure off Friday's frenzy.
"It was so organized — that was the key," Hatch said. "I think people have finally learned their lesson."
Wal-Mart, Kmart, Sears and Target are just some of the stores that jumped the gun on Black Friday.
Friday's bright sunshine and balmy spring-like temperatures brought out plenty of Broadway shoppers in downtown Saratoga Springs.
"A lot of stores opened at 6 a.m. with sales," said Roger Goldsmith, owner of Crafters Gallery on Broadway. "People from out of town are visiting friends and family in Saratoga. Plus, we have a lot of locals." Continued...
Downtown merchants hope to be bustling again today with a special Small Business Saturday promotion that features discounts at many participating stores.
Best Buy in Wilton opened at midnight Thursday and within two hours about 80 televisions had gone out the front door, along with numerous computers, tablets and Kindles, a store employee said.
Charmane Dow of Greenwich browsed through aisles, searching for an Elvis Presley CD for her 10-year-old niece.
"I've turned her on to Elvis," she said.
Her Christmas list has lots of kids on it, so she got up at 4 a.m. Friday and headed straight to Bon Ton at Wilton Mall to find children's boots. Then, she went off to hunt for a Dream Lite, which turns bedroom ceilings into starry nighttime scenes, for her granddaughter.
"I was also looking for a dog bed and I ended up buying pillows," she said with a laugh.
Despite her early start, Dow said there's a limit to the things she'll go through to find something special.
"I don't need anything bad enough to stand in line eight hours," she said.
Dow said she was somewhat surprised by Friday's relatively light turnout.
"People were able to start shopping Thursday, which took away from Black Friday," she said. Continued...
Audra Wilcox, who works at Daily Treasures in the mall, echoed those thoughts.
"To be honest, it's not really as busy as I expected it to be," she said. "A lot of stores were doing their sales on Thursday."
Things were even a bit quiet for the mall's Santa Claus.
"I'm not surprised," said St. Nick (aka Joe McTiernan of Gansevoort). "All the mommies are out doing shopping — they don't want kids with them — so they can get good deals. I'll be busier in the afternoon — that's when kids start filtering through."
While his elves were busy at the North Pole, Santa greeted kids from 9 a.m. to 8 a.m., a pretty long day.
"Especially when you're 72," he said, smiling.

Tax Clinic Students
- What kind of clinical program is the Tax Clinic?
- What kinds of cases do students handle as part of the Tax Clinic program?
- Practice Skills Learned in the Tax Clinic
- Making a Difference in Clients' Lives
- Structure and Requirements of the Tax Clinic
What kind of clinical program is the Tax Clinic?
The Tax Clinic is a one semester clinical program (described in more detail below) that is offered to between 8 and 10 students in both the fall and spring semesters, and 6 students during the two summer semester term. Students are awarded 6 credits for the program. Four (4) credits are for casework and two(2) credits are for class work. The Tax Clinic is taught by Clinical Professor Diana L. Leyden. Any second-, third- or fourth-year day or evening division student who has completed a J.D. federal income tax course may enroll in the Tax Clinic. The Tax Clinic consists of three components:
- Seminar: Three (3) hours each week students are taught tax law and procedure and lawyering skills, and are introduced to guest speakers form the IRS, DRS, and area attorneys;
- Tutorial: One hour each week each two member team of students meet with the Director to discuss their cases; and
- Casework: Each students spends 15-20 hours each work working on cases, attending client or IRS/DRS conferences, or preparing for lawyering events. Each team of two students handles between 4 and 6 cases each semester.
Students who complete one semester of the Tax Clinic can register for Advanced Fieldwork. In the Advanced Tax Clinic students can continue with client representation or design a special program. Examples of programs that Advanced Tax Clinic students have worked on are:
- Designing and running workshops on tax related problems (e.g., credit repair, small business taxes) with community organizations;
- Preparing legislative testimony for regulation of Refund Anticipation Loans; and
- Working on a book showcasing the problems faced by the working poor when interacting with the IRS.
"What a great ways for people in the community to get some help and a great way for students to learn some practical lawyering skills."
--Ted Karns, '01, Principal, Private Equity, Princeton University Investment Company
What kinds of cases do students handle as part of the Tax Clinic program?
The Tax Clinic represents over 100 low income taxpayers every year.
"I was amazed at the spectrum of issues our Tax Clinic clients faced. Witihin weeks of enrollment, I was applying a wide range of substantive and procedural tax law to my clients' needs. We worked on challenging cases."
--Brennan Price, '04,Chief Technology Officer at ARRL
Clients are provided high quality legal representation at three levels before the Internal Revenue Service and the Connecticut Department of Revenue Service.
- Audits: Students prepare for and represent clients in connection with audits of income tax returns.
- Appeals Students represent clients with regards to the appeal of an adverse audit, the exercise of due process rights after the IRS first tries to collect a past tax by a levy or a lien or the denial of an offer in compromise, or the appeal of an adverse determination of the request for innocent spouse; and
- Collection during the process of proposing an alternative payment plan or a compromise of tax liabilities.
The Tax Clinic also represents its clients in litigation. The Tax Clinic appears before the United States Tax Court with respect to litigation of tax matters, including adverse audit determinations or denials of collection alternatives and generally once a semester attends the United States Tax Court trial session in Hartford, CT. The Tax Clinic also represents clients before the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut, the United States Court of Federal Claims, and the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit with respect to refund actions and Freedom of Information litigation.
The Tax Clinic does not fill out tax returns or provide other accounting services. The Law School sponsors a Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) site that is operated in Hartford during the tax filing season. Students interested in enrolling in the Tax Clinic or in providing tax-related public service are encouraged to participate.
Practice Skills Learned in the Tax Clinic
Students in the Tax Clinic receive special certification by the IRS Director of Practice that allows them to represent clients at all stages of the administrative practice. For clients who have problems related to an examination (audit) of a tax return, a student may correspond with a service center or local exams office and attend a conference with an IRS revenue agent. The Tax Clinic students have been very successful in resolving problems at this stage because they prepare thorough document submission and are well prepared in attending conferences. Working in teams, students use skills learned in the Tax Clinic to assist clients in securing enough credible documents to support claims made on returns or to understand when claims cannot be supported. Students also rehearse for conferences by engaging in moot conferences with the Director, Staff Attorney, other students or area practitioners to prepare for actual IRS conferences.
If a client seeks help in appealing an examination finding, a student may work to counsel the client on his or her rights to an appeal conference or other choices. If the client decides to appeal, the student will work with the client to prepare a written appeals protest and attend a conference with an IRS Appeals Officer. At this stage, the student may also have the opportunity to engage in negotiation and settlement conferences or the new Fast Track Mediation process.
If a client seeks help in determining how to pay off a past tax liability, a student may counsel a client as to payment or settlement options, assist the client in preparing financial statements, and attend a conference with an IRS revenue officer in connection with an offer to compromise a tax liability. (All of these same types of representation may occur at the state revenue department level as well.)
Finally, Tax Clinic students may represent taxpayers before the U.S. Tax Court. The Tax Clinic has a written agreement with the Tax Court that permits students, under the supervision of an attorney admitted to the Tax Court bar, to litigate before the court in small tax court matters or regular tax court matters which do not involve disputes exceeding $50,000. The U.S. Tax Court has generally held a trial session at least once a year in Hartford, Connecticut. Students who are involved in Tax Court matters may be involved in preparing petitions and other pleadings, negotiating settlements with IRS counsel, arguing motions, and conducting trials.
Making a Difference in Clients' Lives
Most Tax Clinic clients have incomes between $10,000-$40,000. Many are single parents with young children. For a substantial number English is a second language. Often these clients do not possess sufficient education, literary or time to handle the daunting hurdle of corresponding with the IRS or attending meetings. To many clients, the denial of a refund or, worse, the receipt of a tax bill for an amount of $2,000 may mean no school clothes for a child or no holiday or birthday gifts. Representation for such clients in tax matters is nearly nonexistent in the communities served by the Tax Clinic.
Structure and Requirements of the Tax Clinic
There are three major facets of the Tax Clinic program: casework, seminar meetings and tutorials. The casework, of course, is central. Students, working together in teams of two, typically spend between 15-20 hours a week working on their clients' cases. Each student team meets weekly with the Director or Staff Attorney for an in-depth discussion of the casework. These tutorials are used to help students recognize, analyze, and resolve the multitude of strategic, tactical, ethical and interpersonal issues that arise in representing clients. Through the casework, students gain training in lawyering skills including client interviewing, client counseling, negotiation and settlement, draftng legal memoranda and other legal documents, and keeping files.
The Tax Clinic seminar meets once a week during the semester. Early in the fall semester, classes are used to survey the substantive federal tax and practice law involved in the clinic cases. Many classes are devoted to teaching essential lawyering skills. Classes also serve a forums for case rounds in which students share and learn from each other's case experiences.
Tax Clinic students may also participate in role playing exercises designed to simulate the key aspects of lawyering process, including client interviewing and counseling, negotiating, investigation, examining witnesses, and making arguments. IRS revenue officers and Appeals Officers may run in class simulations or appear as guest lecturers. Area tax practitioners also appear as guest lecturers during the semester.

Modified again to add: So since when does exercise come in a can? Maybe if their copy editor was as diligent about his job as we are about running, he might not have missed that pretty funny typo.
