The Frank Evans Center for Conflict Resolution
  As the practice of law evolves, attorneys spend considerably much more time in negotiations, mediations, and arbitration rooms than the courtroom. As a result, it is imperative that law students possess not only the ability, but also the expertise in these contemporary methods of legal representation.
The Frank Evans Center for Conflict Resolution (FECCR) has as its primary mission the education of law students in both the theoretical foundations and practical applications of dispute resolution policies and procedures. In a broader sense, the work of the center advances dispute resolution policy and practice through education, research and service.
The FECCR serves as the focal point for dispute resolution education within South Texas College of Law. The FECCR provides a variety of opportunities for students to learn the theoretical foundations and practical applications of dispute resolution law, procedure and policies.
The Center, named after a former Chief Judge of the First Court of Appeals, in Houston, Texas, the Honorable Frank G. Evans, known as the father of ADR in Texas, sponsors and administers a variety of programs and projects, including classes, clinics, externships and dispute resolution competitions. In addition, the Center has the privilege to be one of the few, if not the only Center in the country, which has two Past-Chairs of the ABA Section of Dispute Resolution, Dean Emeritus and Professor Jim Alfini and Professor Kimberlee Kovach.
In addition to its educational initiatives, the Center also serves an active and important role in the local, state, and national dispute resolution communities.
