President's Message

Thanks for checking out the blog! We've got some exciting things planned for the International Law Society this next semester. In addition to our bi-weekly, lunchtime meetings, we will be holding several "International Law Movie Nights." We haven't decided what night of the week we'll be holding these, but each will tie in with the topic of the lunchtime speaker. For example, one week we'll have a speaker talk about the Rwandan genocide and the ICTR, and then we'll have an International Law Movie Night where we'll watch Hotel Rwanda. These will be open to both students and the public and will serve as a great way to, as ILS' purpose states "increase the awareness of and passion for" international law.

I've also been impressed with the enthusiasm the law school's student body has shown for international law. We had an amazing turnout at our organizational meeting this past semester, and people have really stepped up to the plate for officer positions. All of this gives me confidence that the International Law Society will be at ASU for a long time to come. If you're interested in finding out more about the officers and their vision for ILS, navigate to the "Officers" page. In the coming weeks each should be posting a short introductory message letting you know a little about their vision and passion for international law.

If you have any questions, concerns, or ideas on who you'd like to come speak or how best to proceed, please feel free to send ILS an e-mail at azstate.ils@gmail.com.
