Open Source Programming at 2010 Annual Meeting

AALS is requesting proposals for Open Source programs for the 2010 AALS Annual Meeting in New Orleans, Louisiana. Open Source sessions at the Annual Meeting are novel ideas for programs proposed by groups of faculty members and selected by a committee in a competitive search. The programs should be innovative and include interactive and out of the ordinary approaches to presenting the topics.

The goal is to encourage a “bottom up” process in which scholars collaborate to develop fresh and exciting ideas for a program at the Annual Meeting. These are not Section, law school, organization, or institution-sponsored programs. An Open Source Program is one developed by a group of faculty members in various subject matters, who have an original topic that they would like to present at the Annual Meeting.

To ensure exceptional topics for the Open Source programs, proposals should not feature a program or subject that could be offered by an AALS Section or conflict with other programs being presented at the 2010 AALS Annual Meeting.

Submission of ideas for programs with a detailed explanation of the program topic along with possible speakers should be e-mailed to opensource@aals.org by April 17, 2009.
