Now for students too! CALI has recently added software for student
purchase to our third-party software program. Check the enclosed catalog
for offerings such as Top 10%, Socratutor, Para
Mason, and First Year Toolkit.
CALI implemented the third-party software program to provide the CALI
member schools with the widest possible access to teaching, learning, and
productivity tools that can be applied to legal education. CALI searches
for appropriate software, reviews the products, and negotiates a
substantial discount for CALI members. Although CALI does not endorse
these products or provide technical support for them, you will be
supported by the vendors as a regular customer.
To CALI Reps. and lab managers: if you would like copies of the pre-
printed catalogs and order forms, or for any other information, call Joleen
Willis, LEAP Director, at (312) 906-5303.
