ILSA Chapter Happenings
we have also added some simulation games in which the participants represent certain nations and the United Nations (as mediators) in nego- tiating to solve a hypothetical situation that usu- ally involves several aspects of international law. The next simulation will involve a transfer of land based on treaty obligations. There are elements of intellectual property, displacement of individu- als, competing definitions of “national interest”, and treaty interpretation, involved in the simula- tion.
On November 22, the International Law Society will hold our second annual Karaoke Fundraiser in which law students purchase songs that their professors then have to perform! Last year’s event was a great success and we look forward to an even bigger turnout this year.
In December, Gonzaga ILS will be partnering with Mission Possible, a club made up of a group of stu- dents that travels each spring to an impoverished area to do humanitarian work, to raise money by providing an opportunity for law students to have their pictures taken with Santa Clause before the stress of final exams sets in. The Mission Pos- sible members will be travelling to the Dominican Republic over spring break in 2014 and Gonzaga ILS is honored to help fund this worthwhile cause and their international humanitarian work.
Gonzaga ILS will also be partnering with the Gon- zaga Journal of International Law (GJIL) in the spring to host a two-day symposium open to lo- cal practitioners and students. The focus of the symposium this year will be immigration and we will have a distinguished panel of speakers with intimate knowledge of the subject. Each speaker will present and bring his or her expertise in a specific subject area under the umbrella of im- migration.
Lastly, Gonzaga ILS Board members are work- ing with Professor Mary Pat Treuthart to create an intensive, short-term class focusing on the fundamentals of International Human Rights as
a response to a recent administrative decision to offer the normally semester long class only every other year. Professor Treuthart has traditionally taught this class and is excited to be able to offer it in another format. At this time, the plan is still in formational stages, however, our vision is to meet for approximately one week for three hours per night to learn the fundamentals and then con- tinue the class in an online chat type forum where we would address specific instances and issues in more depth outside the classroom.
