Texas Bar Journal editorial board

By Michael Smith

SBOT President Harper Estes appointed me to one other thing this year, and that was to return me to the editorial board of the Texas Bar Journal, this time as vice chair.  I was originally appointed to a three year term on the TBJ board by then-president Eduardo Rodriguez when I joined the Bar board in 2005 as his appointment - each Bar president appoints one incoming director to the editorial board.  I rotated off, but Harper asked me to come back on as vice chair.  I recently met with TBJ editorial board chair David McAtee and editor Kevin Priestner in Dallas about some of the great ideas they have for the TBJ this year, and am looking forward to our first full meeting of the editorial board next month.
Once again, I'm posting here to solicit comments about the Texas Bar Journal - if you've got gripes, kudos, or ideas, just drop me a line.
