1 Ad Rem: Mag. Int'l L. Students Assoc. 1 (1992-1993)

handle is hein.jessup/ilsaqrtly0001 and id is 1 raw text is: Ad Rem The Newsletter of the International Law Students Association Special Issue September 1992 Welcome Back ... to another year of that wonderful experience we all know as Law School. Hope your summers were all enjoyable, or at the very least, productive. There's been a lot going on behind the scenes at ILSA while you were gone, all of which is covered in the newsletter and the packets sent to each Chapter in early September. Make sure everyone is filled in on the details. New officers ILSA has all new officers this year. Former Chair Bob Brown has been succeeded by his St. Louis University counterpart Elizabeth Hoover. Laura Lehman of Brooklyn Law School, knownforherpast work with the Journal Conference, has replaced Mark Zaid as Vice-Chair. Denise Hodge's term as Executive Director also ended this year, and she left the office to Brett Lorenzen, a recent graduate of the University of Iowa College of Law, in early July. Brett will fill the role of Executive Director, as well as Administrator of the Jessup Competition, for the next two years. We'd like to thank, once again, the In This Issue... Fall Congress See Page 1 ASIL Student Membership Discounts See Page 4 ILSA - ELSA Relations Flourish See Page 2 Jessup Competition Information See Page 3 Journal Conference Host Needed See Page 4 former officers for the many hours of long work they put in, and the many achievements they made during their terms. Computers The ASIL recently replaced all of the computers at Tillar House, and the Executive Office is still trying to finish the conversion of ILSA records. While we're transferring them, we're also trying The ILSA Fall Congress and the International Law Association's International Law Weekend will be held in conjunction with each other again this year. The events are scheduled for Friday and Saturday November 5 & 6, and will be held at the Bar Association Building in New York. ILSA has reserved hotel space, and formal registration packets and schedules for both events will be sent to all chapters in late-September. ILSA is being charged for the use of the Bar Association's space this year, so we will be forced to cut back a bit on programming. The ILSA Regional Committee will meet Friday morning, and ILSA Chapter and Journal oriented workshops will be held Friday afternoon, to be followed, hopefully, by a tour of the UN Building. The Fall Congress will meet on Saturday morning, and the infamous Career Panel will again be held on Saturday afternoon. Though we had to cut our substantive panels, the ILA is offering a full-slate of activities for the weekend, including panels on Environmental Law, The New International Order, and The to get everything re-written and updated. It's been a slow process. A number of the changes this has produced are already evident. Member surveys have been implemented this year to help us better track and serve the ILSA Membership. The Newsletter has been moved in-house, and we'll be working on improving regularity during the coming year. Projects such as the (cont'd page 3) Protection of Women under Current Human Rights Norms. The ILA panels will feature speakers such as Annie Petsonk of the EPA (a big hit at the ILSA Congress last year), Edith Brown Weiss, Ambassador Edward Perkins (US Permanent Representative to the UN), and former National Security Council Advisor Theodore Sorenson. With more time to devote to the Career Panel, we hope this year to expand both its size and length. Look for it to involve a substantive agenda of advice, as well as an at-large question and answer session with the panelists. Also, please note the information on ILSA Regional Organization that was enclosed Chapter Mailings. Formal incorporation of Regions into the National structure will be discussed at length that weekend, and we'd like to see all chapters represented in NY to express their opinions and aid us in making these decisions. Make sure your members are informed of the date for this year's Fall Congress, and keep an eye on your mailbox. We look forward to seeing all of you there!4 Fall Congress; ILA International Law Weekend Set for November 6-7 I LSA
