Washington and Lee University School of Law‘s Journal of Energy, Climate, and Environment and its Environmental Law Society are hosting their inaugural symposium, Climate Policy for the Obama Adminstration this Friday, February 20. This interdisciplinary symposium, which will be held one month after the Obama Administration takes office, will assess the Administration’s initial steps on climate change and reflect on the road ahead. Our aim is to not only provide interesting academic discussion, but also to produce a policy assessment that might be useful to those advising the new Administration. Panels will focus on managing scientific and policy uncertainty, addressing complexities of scale, reconceptualizing energy policy, and achieving greater justice. A number of presenters will participate remotely to reduce the carbon footprint of the conference. The event is free and open to the public. For more details, please see the symposium website.

If you are a law professor who is just beginning to write scholarship focusing on law and sexuality issues, we encourage you to submit a proposal to the Junior Scholar’s Forum. If your proposal is accepted, you will receive extensive feedback and guidance from academics who have been working in the field.

The Lone Star Regional Legal Research and Writing Conference will be held at Texas Tech University School of Law on May 29-30, 2009. We invite proposals for presentations at this conference and welcome proposals from anyone involved in legal education, including LRW profs, academic support professionals, other-than-skills profs, and law librarians.
While we anticipate and welcome proposals on a broad range of topics, we hope to have sufficient proposals to establish a separate track for those involved in moot court programs, including those who advise moot court programs and do not teach LRW. In addition, we encourage proposals on program assessment and teaching methods.
A complete proposal will contain the following information:
- The presenter’s name and complete contact information.
- A paragraph or thereabouts describing the program.
- A description of the session’s planned structure and teaching approach.
- The preferred length of the program: 25 minutes, 55 minutes, or 80 minutes. (We hope to have more of the shorter programs and fewer of the longer, but we’re flexible.)
- Any other information that you think would be helpful for us to know in making selections and planning the program.
The deadline for submissions is March 16, 2009. We hope to have the program complete before the end of March.
Thank you. We look forward to seeing your proposals and putting together a great program.

Since a growing number of studies conclude that peer review is flawed and ineffective as it is being implemented, why not apply scientific and engineering research and methods to the peer review process?
This is the purpose of the International Symposium on Peer Reviewing: ISPR being organized in the context of The 3rd International Conference on Knowledge Generation, Communication and Management: KGCM 2009, which will be held on July 10-13, 2009, in Orlando, Florida, USA.
