You could become an effective public speaker! You could become so comfortable speaking in public that you would look forward to public speaking, even if it now terrifies you. You could become the one that people look to when it is time to make a presentation or run a meeting. Wouldn’t that enhance your future? Toastmasters has arrived to help you.
Toastmasters International is a worldwide organization dedicated to teaching all its members to speak confidently and effectively. We are forming a chapter right here at the Law Center. This is a voluntary student activity so there are no grades. This is a particularly important opportunity for students who do not participate in moot court or mock trial activities because they do not see litigation in their future.

If you have completed your first semester of law school, you are invited to the Shepard Broad Law Center Chapter of Toastmasters.
Meetings will take place weekly. The time and place will be announced on the Forum/Newsgroup for Toastmasters.
The very first meeting is Wednesday, September 24, 2008 at 4:00 p.m. in the Large Lecture Hall (“LL”) at the Law Center. The program will include guest speakers who will explain how Toastmasters has benefited their lives and a sample Toastmasters meeting.
Toastmasters can change your life by providing you with skills that will propel you to personal and professional success. We hope to see you at the meeting.
Sincerely yours,
Matthew Rocco ’10 Professor Ron Brown & Professor Joe Grohman
