He noted the growing demand for lawyers studied in international law. And he dis- Contributing Editor cussed how new economic realities are transforming the legal profession, perhaps Deborah J.

While the situation at first may seem like a relatively Amy Lai ’11 simple matter to fix, it is, in fact, extremely complex, as attendees found out at the Julie Michaels Third World Law Journal’s October symposium on experiential learning. For one thing, clinics are more expensive than podium classes because of smaller faculty- Michael O’Donnell ’04 student ratios and higher overhead. For another, there are disparities within the Jane Whitehead clinical and non-clinical faculty ranks that need to be addressed. Even so, the Law Jeri Zeder School, long considered a pioneer in clinical education, is determined to revitalize its programming and remain a leader in the field. Read how on Page 12.

  • New Hampshire Road Trip!
    JANUARY 2012 Remembering Longtime IOP Advisor Milt Gwirtzman New JFK Jr. Forum Microsite Alumni Q & A with Peter Buttigieg ’04 2012 Polling and Research Careers and Internships New Mayors Conference NEW HAMPSHIRE ROAD TRIP! With the 2012 Republican presidential primary race in high gear this fall, students packed buses to nearby New Hampshire to meet presidential candidates as the IOP conducted timely younger voter public opinion research in Iowa and the Granite State. Welcome to the Institute of Politics at Harvard University Trey Grayson, Director The 2012 election cycle is in high gear, and the past six months have been fast- paced at the Institute. As you will note in this newsletter, the IOP has been at the forefront of election and campaign-related programming, with events, conferences and younger voter research unavailable anywhere else. One of my biggest goals since beginning service as the Institute’s Director has been to improve how the IOP utilizes technology – in an effort to maximize efficiency internally and best distribute and share our content externally to audiences inter- ested in politics and public service. Toward this end, we are very pleased this month to unveil the new online home for John F. Kennedy Jr. Forum programming at www.jfkjrforum.org (see feature on next page). The new microsite not only has a state-of-the art design but also can broadcast Forum programming in a format allowing Forum events to be streamed live or viewed later on any computer or device, including iPads and iPhones. We are also hard at work building a new IOP-wide website – scheduled to be completed next fall – which improves our current website layout and better integrates key online content from Institute students and student publications like the Harvard Political Review.

The study shows how Occupy achieved a disturbing positionality relative to the forces which routinely dominate public discourse and proposes that Occupy’s encampment was politically intolerable to the status quo because the movement held the potential to consolidate critical thought and action.

Angelo* "Thank you, God bless you all, and God Bless Citizens United!" 1 The irony in Stephen Colbert's voice was apparent, but his point was not lost amongst the satire: following the Supreme Court's green-light in the controversial case Citizens United v. FEC, the unprecedented amount of money being expended in anticipation ofthe 2012 federal elections is cause for concern, and nothing less than the integrity of American democracy itself is at stake. Colbert's late-night demonstration of the ease with which candidates can create and subsequently 'distance' themselves from so-called super 'PACs' - political action committees that exist solely for promoting a specific candidate3 - made a mockery of a system built to safeguard the electoral process but now being manipulated by those who can ' pay to play' at the expense of those who cannot afford to have their voices heard. 4 Why should the amount of money in politics matter to the average American?

  • UNSW Law Appoints Professor Dimity Kingsford Smith As Inaugural Minterellison Chair in Risk and Regulation
    For immediate release UNSW Law appoints Professor Dimity Kingsford Smith as inaugural MinterEllison Chair in Risk and Regulation The Chair has been established through a philanthropic partnership with MinterEllison, an international legal and consulting firm headquartered in Australia and regarded as one of the Asia-Pacific's premier firms. Professor Dimity Kingsford Smith, a leading voice in corporate and financial regulation, has been named the inaugural MinterEllison Chair in Risk and Regulation. The establishment of the Chair comes at an opportune time when national leadership is required to address the findings of the Financial Services Royal Commission. The Chair will study risk governance, risk management and regulation to help organisations identify, understand and respond to known and unknown risks. This will develop new ideas and means of regulation to improve industries, such as financial services, to the benefit of society and the economy. One of Australia’s leading corporate law scholars, Professor Kingsford Smith’s work covers areas including financial services regulation, corporate governance, online investing and theory and practice of regulation. Professor Kingsford Smith previously served as the National Australia Bank’s First Wealth Customer Advocate. In addition, she is a member of ASIC’s External Advisory Panel and has written research reports for ASIC. She was the inaugural chair of the Conduct Review Commission of the Financial Planners Association, a disciplinary panel in the financial services sector, and was a member of the Code Committee of the New Zealand Financial Markets Authority between 2011-2017. "I look forward to working on the big questions of how to deal fairly with risk and regulation and all the stakeholders they effect,” said Professor Kingsford Smith.
