handle is hein.journals/lablaw34 and id is 1 raw text is: V Editors' Page We welcome you to this first issue of the ABA Journal of Labor & Employment Law that has been edited by the faculty and students of Saint Louis University School of Law. We are honored that SLU Law and the William C. Wefel Center for Employment Law will serve as the new editorial home for the Journal. We will take the editors' prerogative to introduce SLU Law, the Wefel Center, and the three faculty editors to the section membership and the wider readership. SLU Law is the oldest law school west of the Mississippi River and is proud of its role in serving the St. Louis legal community and the wider national bar. Located in downtown St. Louis, SLU Law offers students access to leading law firms, corporations, gov- ernment agencies, and non-profit organizations. The City of St. Louis Civil Courts Building and the Thomas F. Eagleton U.S. Courthouse are steps away, giving students a unique opportunity to see the law in action. SLU Law has active and engaged alumni who assist our pro- gram of legal education and for whom we are most grateful. SLU Law has a long commitment to the study and practice of labor and employment law, manifested in the Wefel Center for Employment Law. Founded in 1987 by the late Professor John Jack Dunsford, and led for many years by Professors Josef Rohlik and Susan Tonie Fitzgibbon, the Wefel Center is one of three centers of excellence at SLU Law. Through the Wefel Center, SLU Law students may earn a concentration in labor and employment law. Fellowships are available for summer positions in labor and employment law, and further study opportunities are available through our Semester in Washington, D.C., program. The Wefel Center regularly holds conferences and meet- ings and has sponsored the annual meeting of the St. Louis Human Resources Management Association. And now we want to introduce ourselves to the readership. The new faculty editors are Professors Miriam A. Cherry, Matthew T. Bodie, and Marcia L. McCormick. Miriam A. Cherry serves as Associate Dean of Research of SLU Law and as Co-Director of the Wefel Center. She teaches Employment Law, Contracts, and a seminar on Virtual Work, among other courses. Her research interests include the intersection of employment law and new technologies, especially as viewed through a global lens. She is the co-author of the books Global Issues in Employment Law (West 2008), and Invisible Labor (University of California Press 2016). She is a recognized authority on legal issues of work in the gig economy and in 2018 served as a visiting scholar at the International Labour Office of the United Nations.
