	Library display on life of Prof. Culp
	The decision to dedicate the display case to Professor Jerome Culp was made almost immediately upon hearing of his death. Many of us in BLSA (2Ls and 3Ls) had the opportunity to get to know Professor Culp in and out of school, and we felt that dedicating the library board to Professor Culp was the only thing to do. The IL’s, upon hearing our stories of Professor Culp, were more than willing to set aside there plans in favor of our proposal. As a group, the BLSA members acted expeditiously, as we all felt that it would be best if the bulletin board were set up by Friday morning. We sorted through old Duke Law School photos to find images of Professor Culp. We read through his writings, pulling passages that we found particularly relevant. We also solicited written statements from students who we knew to have special relationships with Professor Culp that transcended the classroom. At first, we were unsure if the use of student statements would be appropriate, but upon reading Frank Chao’s words (posted in the display in the library), we knew written statement must be included. For, indeed, Professor Culp did have a profound effect on many of the student’s here. So many people were willing to drop what they were doing to accomplish our memorial for Prof. Culp. The job was completed at about 1 A.M. Friday morning. We were all proud, so proud of our work at the end of the night and were pleased to be able to acknowledge the contributions of a person that meant so much to so many of us. Throughout this process, we all learned a lot. The IL’s, many of whom never met Professor Culp, were surprised to learn of all of his achievements. They seemed to fully realize how important this task was by the end of the night. The 2Ls and 3Ls, even those that knew Professor Culp in some capacity, were amazed that there was so much that they never knew. We thought about the display board that was empty at the beginning of the month and, we reflected upon how the making of the board had brought us together as a group. I think that Professor Culp would have appreciated what we had done. Maxwell Schardt more less

	Another Side of New East Asian Cinema
	13 evenings of recent Asian cinema - featuring hits from China, Japan, Hong Kong, and South Korea Organized and sponsored by the Asian Pacific Studies Institute and the Film/Video/Digital Program. Cosponsored by the Dept. of Asian and African Languages and Literature and the John Hope Franklin Humanities Institute's "Making the Humanities Central" Project withsupport from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation andthe Vice Provost for Interdisciplinary Studies Mon 2/23 White \| Sopyonje-w/ introductory talk by Prof. Jonathan Kramer (d. Im Kwon-Taek, 1993, 112 min, South Korea, Korean with English Subtitles, Color, Video) The specifically Korean tradition that is reclaimed in Sopyonje is the type of folk-song known as pansori, described as a musical sublimation of South-West Korea's collective grief and suffering - in other words, a kind of blues. The film's three central characters are itinerant pansori singers in the 1950s and 1960s, and their travails are an allegory of the intrusion of westernizing and modernizing influences into Korean culture in the aftermath of World War II. The story unfolds through flashbacks: two orphans, a boy and a girl, are apprenticed to a pansori master who pressures them to sacrifice everything for the art; the young man rebels and runs away, but years later we find him roaming through the rural hinterlands in search of his adoptive sister, who is rumored to still be travelling and singing pansori. The tale has one truly shocking twist, but the overall tone is plaintive, elegiac and serenely beautiful. more less

They are currently in need of 7 additional judges to fill each of the 4 time slots below (for a total of 28 rounds of judging), and your help would be greatly appreciated. Jill Miller reports that she has judged the high school competition for the last two years, and it has been a very rewarding experience, involving 100s of talented high schoolers and college students. This year, the competitors will be coming from as far away as California and Canada. The arguments are based on the hypothetical case of CBL v. Kilgo Bd. of Education and involve free speech issues relating to a story published in an "alternative literary magazine of Kilgo." Dean Miller has a copy of the bench brief in her office, and it will not take long to educate yourself on the issues. The following slots are available; if you could do more than one, the college organizers would be eternally grateful. 9:00 AM 10:45 AM 1:45 PM 4:00 PM Please email Ben Pollack at bmp5@duke.edu with your available times, and please copy Dean Miller on your message as well.

	Meeting of American Society of International Law (Open in a new window)
	The JD-LLM program will sponsor a group of students interested in going to the annual meeting of the American Society of International Law (ASIL) in Washington. This meeting is the highlight of international law - certainly in the US, possibly worldwide. Tons of interesting talks and panels, and people to meet. Plus, our very own Prof. Pauwelyn will be on one of the panels. He will also, we hope, serve as an anchor point for the DUke community at the Washington meeting. The meeting takes place March 31-April 3 in Washington, and you can find all relevant information, including the program, at http://www.asil.org/annual_meeting/index.htm . For students it is an absolute bargain: 30$ if you are not a member of ASIL, 0$ if you are. You should indeed become members of the society, because student membership is only 30$, and in addition to covering the costs for the meeting, this gets you a subscription to the American Journal of International law for free. See the URL below. The JD-LLM program is willing to sponsor a significant portion of the hotel costs in Washington (the exact amount depends on the number of students interested in going). Otherwise, we hope for students to organize a group hotel rooms, and carshare on their own. Carolin Spiegel (carolin.spiegel@law.duke.edu) has promised to coordinate, or find someone to coordinate for her, so you should contact her directly. The money, of course, is primarily for JD-LLMs, so if very many students are interested, we give priority to those students. Otherwise, we expect to be able to fund non-JD-LLMs as well. For further information, contact Profs. Ralf Michaels and / or Michael Byers more less
