Foreword: Conference on Legal Ethics: "What Needs Fixing?"

The remarkable collection of papers in this special issue of the Hofstra Law Review grew out of Hofstra University School of Law's third major ethics conference, which was held at Hofstra from September 9 to September 11, 2001. The papers are linked together by the broad theme expressed in the conference's title: Legal Ethics: What Needs Fixing? n this Foreword, I want to do three simple things. First, I want to talk about how Hofstra put the ethics conference together. Second, I want to comment on the connections between some of the papers.

Third, I want to say a few words about the last day of the conference, September 11, 2001.
