Five questions for Frederic Bloom

Earlier this year, Frederic Bloom, J.D., was named to the newest cohort of President’s Teaching Scholars, high recognition for excellence in and commitment to learning and teaching, as well as active, substantial contributions to scholarly work. He teaches Civil Procedure, Evidence, Federal Courts and related courses. "The law is a distinctly human enterprise: It is made by people, with people, for people," he said. "I sincerely believe that my students will be better attorneys, better advocates, better neighbors and better leaders if they remember that important fact."
