Legal Commentary

For the last few days, I?ve been at the Law and Society conference in Montreal.  One of the things that I have learned from talking with people here is that there are a lot of different conferences aimed at junior faculty, and that many junior faculty with whom I?ve spoken do not know about them. It seems like it would be useful to put together a list enumerating these conferences and giving a bit of information about each one. (Some conferences, like Law and Society, are open to everyone; others, like the junior crim profs gathering in DC every summer, are limited to specific topics; and others still, like SEALS, are limited to specific geographic areas.) 

I would really appreciate it if anyone involved in a conference targeted at junior faculty would send me an email (in the next week or so) giving the name of the conference, when it is usually held, who is welcome,  and who to contact if people are interested in attending or presenting.  Since this is the last day of my blogging, I?ll send the list to Dan for posting.  My email address is frederick.hessick@asu.edu. Thanks.
