[From Legal Theory Blog we have the following announcement of a Chicago-area colloquium on Constitutional Law that invites submissions from historians.]
Loyola University Chicago School of Law is organizing the Third Annual Constitutional Law Colloquium at the Philip H. Corboy Law Center,
25 East Pearson Street, Chicago, IL 60611. The event will begin on
Friday morning, November 2 and end midday on Saturday, November 3, 2012.
This is the third annual Loyola conference bringing together
constitutional law scholars at all stages of their professional
development to discuss current projects, doctrinal developments in
constitutional law, and future goals. Unless we are overwhelmed, we hope
to be able to schedule presentations for all who submit. In this way,
we will provide a forum for the vetting of ideas, invaluable
opportunities for informed critiques, and networking opportunities.
Presentations will be grouped by subject matter.
The Loyola Constitutional Law Colloquium is aimed at Constitutional Law,
Legal History,
Political Science, and Philosophy scholars teaching at the university,
law school, and graduate levels on matters of constitutional law. We
welcome applications from full-time, part-time, and adjunct faculty
members, as well as post-doctoral fellows from academic discipline
related to the study of constitutional issues (anthropology, history,
law, literary criticism, philosophy political science, sociology, etc.).
Application Procedure: The registration and abstract submission deadline
is May 31, 2012. Conference organizers will select abstracts on a
rolling basis.
