In April the Northwestern International Law Society organized the first annual International Law Week at the Law School. The week's activities brought together local academics and experts in international law. Topics covered throughout the week included "International Business Law: Myths and Realities" and "Combating Impunity for International Crime."

On Thursday, April 3, Professor Anthony D'Amato moderated a lunchtime discussion on International Human Rights Law. Panelists included (pictured from left) Professor Mark Wojcik, John Marshall Law School; Professor Ryan Goodman, University of Chicago Law School; and Professor Douglass Cassel, director of the Center for International Human Rights at Northwestern Law.
