it) is an educational and training school made up of students, teachers, university lecturers and young professionals. Founded during the year 2000 in Catania, it fosters the participation of Italian students (from middle to secondary schools, and universities) in the Model United Nations (MUN); nowadays Diplomatici consti- tutes the only European body accredited by the United Nations Association of the United States of America (UNA USA) and by the National Col- legiate Conference Association Inc.

This year the Catania ILSA Chapter is taking on a new challenge supporting Diplomatici to realize the initiative “Change the World Model United Nations – CWMUN”: the project is the fruit of 10 years of experience aimed at promoting the right for students to International mobility and will be the first academic simulation organized in New York by a non-American association. A second edition of last year’s mooting course will also start in the spring semester.
Our students have already started training for the 2012 edition of Premio ‘Giuseppe Sperduti’, the Italian moot court simulating a case concerning the application of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
To conclude the fall semester, we are planning a conclusive meeting in December to present our activities calendar for 2012 and recruit new students: old and new members will join. In our quest to promote international law, Catania, Catania ILSA Chapter will also put forward, by March 2012, a series of meetings for the screen- ing of movies and short films produced by differ- ent countries about women’s rights: during ev- ery meeting students will analyze the condition of the female population of a specific country and will have to confront their standards of living with different problematic realities.
Catania ILSA Chapter is working hard and in just three years since its establishment has suc-
ceeded at standing out in the national panorama thanks to devotion of its members and, espe- cially, the support of the International Law Chair. We will continue to do our best.

The University of Tulsa, College of Law Interna- tional Law Students’ Association is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The TU ILSA has had a very successful year to date with high recruitment and retention rates. The chapter is dedicated to providing awareness of international law is- sues and providing students with opportunities to become evolved with the international law community. The TU Chapter is constantly trying to keep members informed as to current intern- ships, study abroad opportunities, lectures, and competitions.
The TU ILSA Chapter kicked off its year with a cooperative event coordinated with the Univer- sity’s Black Law Students’ Association and the Hispanic Law Students’ Association at Hibiscus. A Latin venue where students were able to take lessons on various Latin influenced dances. This was a great event geared towards social net- working and providing an opportunity for diver- sity immersion outside of the academic world.
The University of Tulsa’s ILSA chapter kicked off its lecture component with a discussion from TU’s own Dean Janet Levit. Dean Levit lectured on the field of transnational law. Students were provided with a fresh outlook on the shape of the international law environment, and how she feels that a better approach to international law
