Call for Symposium Topics

The Northwestern University Law Review has begun symposium selection for a live symposium to be held at Northwestern University School of Law in the fall of 2011 or spring of 2012. That symposium will be published in the 107th volume of the journal. We encourage interested parties to submit symposium topics beginning on January 1, 2011.

If you would like to submit a topic for our consideration, please prepare a proposal of no more than five pages, outlining the following information:

* Topic
* Why the topic is timely
* Why the topic is important
* How the topic advances legal scholarship
* Proposed list of participants
* Proposed panels (topic and the list of participants for each panel)
* Possible funding
* Any additional information that might help us in evaluating your proposal

You should submit your proposal to Lindsay Dunbar (l-dunbar2012 [at] nlaw.northwestern.edu), the Review’s Special Sections Editor. Feel free to contact Lindsay should you have any questions about the proposal. To allow for ample time to secure symposium participants, we plan to select the topic by May 2011.

We are looking forward to working with you on selecting the most engaging topic for our 2011–2012 symposium.
