Ohio Legal Scholarship Workshop – Columbus, OH

On behalf of Capital University Law School and the organizers of the Ohio Legal Scholarship Workshop, I am pleased to invite you to attend the semiannual Ohio Legal Scholarship Workshop, to be held on Saturday, February 5, 2011, from 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at Capital University Law School in Columbus, Ohio.

Given the short timeframe to compile the agenda, please let me know as soon as possible if you are interested in presenting at the Workshop. The Workshop is open to junior faculty (those who have been teaching for eight years or fewer) at the nine Ohio law schools, the Salmon P. Chase College of Law and the West Virginia University College of Law, and to others by special invitation. The Workshop provides a supportive environment for individuals to present their current work and to receive constructive feedback from their colleagues at neighboring schools. As in years past, participants will present recently completed articles or works-in-progress for comment by the group. For each piece, we will have a facilitator who will lead the discussion of that work. In addition, participants will have the opportunity to give short presentations on ideas for future scholarship that have not yet developed into a paper. If you are interested in presenting your article, serving as a facilitator, or sharing your ideas for future work, I would appreciate your reply as soon as possible and no later than January 22, 2011 to jgrant [at] law.capital.edu or by telephone at 614-236-6783.

I’ll be sending out further details in January about hotel accommodations and other logistics. In the meantime, please mark your calendars, and please forward this e-mail to any junior faculty at your school that were not on my recipient list. I look forward to seeing you at Capital in February!
