STU College of Law was honored to once again welcome to campus the Virgil Hawkins Florida Chapter National Bar Association’s 3rd Annual Empowered Advocacy Symposium, a dynamic two-day event featuring high-level advocacy training, live courtroom demonstrations, and impactful discussions led by judges, board-certified attorneys, and distinguished legal leaders from across Florida.
A highlight of the symposium was a fireside conversation with Florida Bar President Sia Baker Barnes, moderated by world-renowned journalist and attorney Katie Phang of The Katie Phang Show, offering thoughtful perspectives on credibility, influence, and the responsibility that define the modern advocate’s role.
We extend our sincere thanks to the participating bar associations, distinguished speakers, attendees, and our students for contributing to the event’s success.
Special appreciation goes to Professor Sandy Boisrond and Professor Loris Gayle for their invaluable support in coordinating the symposium’s on-campus activities and helping ensure its success at the law school.

Professor Brian C. Potts visited the Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) remotely on February 23 to deliver remarks and field questions on his recent essay, “One True Sentence: Hemingway’s Advice for Lawyers in A Moveable Feast.”
Renowned scholar Dr. Irene Gammel of TMU, chair of the annual Hemingway Society Conference, assigned this essay to her students and invited Professor Potts to present to her class. Professor Potts told the students to develop good writing habits and encouraged them to rejoice that there is no such thing as great writing, only great rewriting.
