With stories and photos featuring a hundred faculty, students, staff and alumni, the latest issue of the school’s digital magazine is packed with news and articles about Queen’s Law and its community members. Queen’s Law Reports Online (January 2019) is now available.
The cover story, Advancing Reconciliation, is a collection of all the school’s most recent Indigenous initiatives in answering the Truth and Reconciliation Report’s calls to action. These initiatives range from an art installation and a pro bono project to understanding through learning on a Mohawk Territory.
Other features include:
- Q&As with two new key staff members – Laura Kinderman, PhD’15, an education technology innovator who has joined the school as Assistant Dean of Students, and Blair Crew, an experienced clinic lawyer who is now Director of Queen’s Legal Aid.
- Advice on how to leverage a Queen’s JD from four Law’93 grads who’ve secured top positions in their different types of careers.
- Tips for students and new lawyers from five 2000s grads who’ve been named “leading lawyers under 40” by a Canadian legal publisher.
- Success stories on how to gain “big-city” legal experience in small-market practices from two recent grads – a personal injury lawyer and an Assistant Crown Attorney – who received individualized assistance from the school’s Career Development Office.
In this issue’s faculty profile, Professor Gail Henderson gives an in-depth look into her research on how consumers are protected and informed about financial products, and how banks are regulated.
PhD students are also making a difference. One plans to use her research to make her African country disability-friendly and another is developing a framework to regulate third-party funding in international arbitration.
That’s just a sampling of what’s inside the January 2019 issue of Queen’s Law Reports.
