Jan. 23 Boyd Briefs Now Available

The Jan. 23 edition of Boyd Briefs is now available.

This week's edition features Professor Jean Sternlight, student Lee Gorlin, and alumna Gina Bongiovi '07.

Professor Sternlight is a highly regarded authority on alternative dispute resolution among Boyd faculty and across the nation. As the Director of the Saltman Center for Conflict Resolution, she has played an integral role in the development of Boyd’s national reputation. 

When not attending Boyd as a part-time evening student, Gorlin works as a “Creative” for Apple, where he teaches consumers how to navigate and enjoy the company’s products. He is currently the president of the Organization of Part-time Law Students, a student mentor of the Academic Success Program, and a staff member on the Nevada Law Journal.

A graduate of UNLV’s joint JD/MBA program, Bongiovi currently works at her own practice that focuses on helping startups and small businesses. She is an active volunteer for the Vegas Young Professionals and Las Vegas Metro Chamber’s Business Council. Additionally, she has helped start nonprofits, including Dress for Success, Vegas Shepard Rescue, and Working K9 Rescue.
