Distinguished Jurist in ResidenceThe Siena College Distinguished Jurist in Residence Program provides unique opportunities for judges to share their expertise and experience with the community by working with students, faculty and staff in a variety of formal and informal settings. These prominent jurists lead discussions, conduct workshops, advise, critique, mentor, counsel and pique our students' interest in pursuing a career in law. The Distinguished Jurist also serves as a coach for the Moot Court/Mock Trial teams.
