The Mary
and Michael Jaharis Health Law Institute sent three students to compete in
the 5th Annual Health Law Regulatory &
Compliance Competition at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School
of Law
. The
Competition was held on Saturday, April 2, 2016, with twelve schools from
around the country competing. The Jaharis Health Law Institute is proud to
announce that the DePaul team placed second overall in the competition!
The Health Law
Regulatory & Compliance Competition requires teams of students to analyze a
particular fact pattern using federal health regulations, rules, and agency
documents, and to present a legal and policy solution to a panel of esteemed
attorneys. Teams were given the fact pattern the day of the competition and
given a little over an hour to review and compose their recommendation.
Third-year law
student, Lana Smith, and second-year law students, Lauren Masching, RN, and
Anthony Lopez, represented DePaul University College of Law. Lana, Lauren, and
Anthony received extremely high praise for their contributions to the
competition. DePaul looks forward to competing again next year!
