Whatever their
prowess in the classroom, members of the faculty are no less productive
in writing law review articles, preparing treatises on crucial legal
issues, and publishing textbooks considered the standards in the field,

Evidence Online
With increased computer capabilities in the renovated classroom
building, UC Hastings is able to introduce interactive exercises that put
students in charge of their own learning. One such exercise is a
computer program in evidence developed and refined by Professor Roger
Park.
Covering such topics as character evidence, hearsay, impeachment, and
rehabilitation of witnesses, it places a student in the role of a trial
lawyer called on to raise objections to the introduction of evidence in
the course of a simulated trial. The exercise is programmed to recognize
correct or closely connected answers.
