The Oklahoma International Law Society is hosting an event 4 to 6 p.m. on Monday, April 2, with Evelyn Aswad, the Assistant Legal Adviser for Human Rights and Refugees in the U.S. State Department. Everyone is invited and encouraged to attend! The event begins in Classroom 6 at 4 p.m., and she will give a lecture on her role in Legal at the State Department. There is a reception following the lecture in the Sneed Lounge from 5 to 6 p.m., where all attendees will get a chance to meet Evelyn Aswad and enjoy great Italian food.
I know this is short notice, but Evelyn Aswad has a very busy schedule, between writing legal opinions for our current Secretary of State and negotiating on behalf of the United States of America around the world. This is a rare opportunity for our law school. Everyone - students and faculty - are highly encouraged to attend.
Please attend this wonderful event!

In Their Words: Bringing the Uniform Bar Exam to Oklahoma
Last summer, my classmate Trae Havens and I were privileged to serve Oklahoma by interning with the office of Oklahoma Supreme Court Justice James Winchester. Throughout the summer, we worked on a variety of different research projects, such as writing draft opinions and organizing files for oral arguments, but the most important thing we did was research for the potential adoption of the Uniform Bar Exam, or UBE, in Oklahoma.
