W ee.............................................. .. .c o n d council meeting of the year in Austin on September 25, 2010. And, yes, it was a home football week- end for UT- so, de- spite that or because Susan Schultz of it, we had a good turnout at the meet- ing. The date was also fortuitous be- cause it allowed me to report on the Council of Chairs meeting, which I had just attended the day before in Austin. Highlights from the Council of Chairs meeting: * For attorneys, you must be aware by now of the proposed new disci- plinary rules of professional con- duct. The State Bar has reviewed them and is recommending some changes. A redlined version is available on the State Bar website at www.texasbar.com. * Protecting personal information -the Bar suggests that sections need to consider protecting their members' information, especially email addresses. To the extent that sections have membership rosters on their website, they may want to keep the roster in a member only area. The ADR Section does not keep a member roster on its web- site, but we are looking into a member only area to facilitate discussions among members. * ADR Section name change-the meeting heated up at this point! I was called up to the front of the room to present the Section's re- quest to change its name to Dispute Resolution. I recounted the various reasons that the Coun- cil and the Section have for pro- posing the change - see John Allen Chalk's article for more details on this- which make sense to me, especially considering the ABA's Dispute Resolution section and the various universities dispute resolution programs. This pro- posal elicited some questions and comments, as well as an objection from the Family Law section, which was a surprise - keep read- ing.
