The Arizona Summit Law School (ASLS), Interna- tional Law Society is pleased to announce several new programs and exciting events that are avail- able to our members.
We are proud to announce that we established a Jessup team this year. Our Executive Board met with ILSA representatives at the International Law Weekend in New York City in 2012 and was inte- gral in getting this program off the ground. Our fall 2013 semester moot court team worked extreme- ly hard to participate in Jessup and we are proud of them for putting ASLS on the map!
Additionally, we have a new externship opportuni- ty for our students. The International Law Society and the ASLS International Program Development Committee have joined forces to forge a relation- ship with the Industrial Court of Botswana. Our students are able to work with the Industrial Court as remote externs. They communicate directly with Industrial Court Judges that assign tasks to them via email or video conference. This relation- ship was forged with the help of Goemekgabo L. Tebogo-Maruping, Judge President of the Indus- trial Court of Botswana. We are grateful for the op- portunity to work with them.
We held our fall orientation mixer on September 19, 2013. We were able to generate a lot of inter- est at the orientation mixer and pulled off an excit- ing event just one month later.
On October 29, 2013, we partnered with the J. Ruben Clark Society and the Federalist Society to
host a riveting debate! The debate, titled “Should International Law Trump US Law: The Syrian Con- flict,” addressed human rights abuses and the use of chemical weapons in Syria. ASLS international law professor, political consultant, and critically ac- claimed author Chris DeRose participated in the debate against Brigham Young University Law School professor David Moore. Professor Moore is an international law and foreign relations scholar, and former clerk to Justice Samuel A. Alito, Jr. (dur- ing the U.S. Supreme Court 2007 term and from 1996-2000 when Justice Alito served on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit). We nearly exceeded capacity for the space, but were able to stretch the catering to provide for 120 attendees. It was a great success and we are so thankful to our co-sponsors and speakers.
During the spring semester we plan to host an- other debate and a mixer with local business pro- fessionals. We are also considering bringing back a panel of speakers from our “2012 International Speaker Series.”
