- Organizing continuing legal education seminars and similar programs for IPBA members and others at which such subjects are addressed;
- Identifying opportunities for Committee members to write articles for publication, speak at continuing legal education seminars and elsewhere, and otherwise participate in professional analysis and discussion of such subjects;
- Participating institutionally with other organizations that engage in the activities described in paragraphs 1, 2, and 3 above; and
