Ah, Oxford in springtime! Mercer Law school has been invited to participate in the annual Oxford Consortium for Human Rights program, and I was able to attend with Mercer 2L student Maggie McCoy. We discussed humanitarian law and practice with Hugo Slim and others from the international human rights community, and evaluated the current Syrian crisis.
During the program participating faculty members discussed their academic work. I spoke with my colleague Lyn Boyd-Judson from USC about our article "Toward a Better Contribution of Universities to a Global Ethic." We received great feedback on our article, and the discussion was a lot of fun!
