The Distinguished Roger L. Shidler Lecture
The Distinguished Roger L. Shidler Lecture, featuring Boston College Law School Professor Alfred C. Yen, will be held on Wednesday, May 15, 2024 at William H. Gates Hall.
The Distinguished Lecture is named for Roger L. Shidler (UW Law class of 1924), a founder of the law firm Shidler, McBroom, Gates & Lucas (now K&L Gates). Through the years, the firm grew to become one of Seattle’s most vibrant and influential law practices. To celebrate Roger Shidler’s legacy, this series brings outstanding academics, judges and practicing lawyers to UW Law to discuss leading issues in intellectual property law, an ever-more important economic driver for our region and the global economy.
