Two Conflicts Events in Oregon in May
February 2, 2024
Willamette University College of Law will be hosting two events, back to back, in May that may be of interest to TLB readers.
Fifty Years in the Conflicts Vineyard
On May 8-9, 2024, Willamette University College of Law and the Conflict of Laws Section of the Association of American Law Schools will hold a symposium to celebrate Professor and Dean Emeritus Symeon Symeonides on May 8-9, who will retire from the law school in 2025. The symposium will celebrate Professor Symeonides both as a person and as a scholar who has made major contributions in the fields of conflict of laws, comparative law, and transnational litigation, among others.
Attendance in person at the Willamette University campus in Salem, Oregon, or virtually are both encouraged. Please register at this link.
Conflict of Laws Workshop and Call for Papers
On May 10, 2024, Willamette University College of Law will host the first biennial Conflict of Laws Workshop (CLW). The CLW aims to provide a forum to discuss new work in conflicts.
