SPOKANE, Wash. Flags replaced people at the Presidential Inauguration, representing Americans who couldn’t attend in person because of the pandemic.
In previous years, there would be hundreds of thousands if not more than a million people descending upon Washington D.C. to witness the President and Vice President be sworn in, and as Dean of the Gonzaga School of Law, Jacob Rooksby puts it, it is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
“It was a really cold January day and we got up early, and waited in a massive line to gain entry, and then finally we did make it in, and you were seated very close to the people next to you, we were fortunate to have some really good seats,” recalled Dr. Rooksby.

As of Dec. 3, the five jurisdictions with emergency diploma privilege precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic had announced plans for a remote bar exam in February 2021.
Louisiana scheduled a remote open-book bar in February, according to a Nov. 25 state supreme court order. The other four jurisdictions Washington, D.C.; Utah; Oregon; and Washington have announced remote Uniform Bar Exams, which are offered by the National Conference of Bar Examiners.
None of the jurisdictions has yet released plans for July 2021 admissions, but law school deans in those regions are telling third-year students to plan for a bar exam, which could be in-person or online. Also, state supreme courts in some jurisdictions have appointed task forces to study the issue.
