ILSA Chapter Happenings
What will follow is international legal research seminars, an alumni event and what we are prob- ably the most excited about: a series of work- shops organized with our Chapter’s support pre- ceding the Employment Network Event 2015.
The Employment Network Event is a career fair organized by our program, having in attendance international legal professionals and recruiters in various fields of international law. To illustrate the importance of the Event, in its 2014 edition, more than 30 employers, ranging from international courts and tribunals, international corporations, law firms and governmental entities have been in attendance and have sought suitable candidates for their internship or employment positions.

After a bit of a hiatus, the Wyoming Society for International Law was revived by two of the University of Wyoming College of Law students in the spring semester of 2014. We have been gaining traction at the University of Wyoming with some great events this semester. We have brought in speakers with diverse backgrounds and we hope to continue planning events in the upcoming spring 2015 semester as well. We have had fantastic feedback and an impressive turn out in terms of student membership, profes-
sors, and other community members that have joined us at our events.
In the first week of October, the Univer-
sity of Wyoming College of Law held its annual Law Week. Many clubs associated with the law school brought in speakers throughout the week to present current events in their field and their own research. The Wyoming Society for Interna- tional Law invited Professor Ved Nanda from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law to be our speaker for Law Week. Professor Nanda is a distinguished member of the international law community. He has served as the President for the World Jurist Association, is a member of the advisory council of the United States Institute of Human Rights, and is a former United States delegate to the World Federation of the United Nations Association. He has held many other no- table positions in the international community, as well as been decorated with numerous awards for his scholarly work and publications recog- nized all over the world.
Professor Nanda came to the University of Wyoming College of Law to discuss the United States’ involvement and use of force on the Is- lamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS). His insightful presentation covered the necessary measures used to mitigate the risk of ISIS attacks. Profes- sor Nanda also explained how the United States was able take action under the UN Charter and Customary International Law. The University of Wyoming community was lucky to have Profes- sor Nanda’s perspective on this important topic, and he was very receptive and engaged with the abundance of questions that he received from both students and community members.
Additionally during this Fall semester, the Wyo- ming ILSA chapter teamed up with the Natural Re- sources Law Club and invited Dr. Tony McLeod to discuss his work with the Australian Government on Water Law Reform in the Murray-Darling Ba- sin. Dr. McLeod has done extensive work in Aus- tralia working with the Prime Minister and other
