Upcoming Speaker and Elections!

Don't forget that we are having a speaker and elections on 4/20/11.


On Wed April 20, we will host Laurie McKowen as our final speaker of the semester. Ms. McKowen is an alum of WVU law, an authority on WV malpractice law, and  is integrating ADR into her practice. She also spends time with us in Harrison county for Magistrate Court Mediations. Ms. McKowen will talk to us about arbitration. More details about her talk will follow. 

We will also hold elections for officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer)! Next year will be even better than this one, so make sure that you are going to be a part of it by running for an officer position, or taking on the most important job in the club, County Coordinator! There are four county coordinator positions available, and two have been spoken for . . . 

Thanks to our Harrison County Mediators!

Thank you to: Alicia Lauderman, Brittany Furr, Travis Sayre, Kate Charonko, Jaime Ritton, and Jeremy Cooper for jumping in and mediating in Harrison County on Thursday evening!

Michael Aloi to speak to the ADR Society -- Overcoming Barriers in Mediation

The WVU College of Law ADR is pleased to be hosting Mr. Michal Aloi, of the firm Manchin and Aloi. Mr. Aloi will speak at Noon in the Davis Gallery on Wednesday 3/16.

Attorney Michael Aloi is a very experienced mediator and a creative thinker who lectures nationally on the topic of a more holistic approach to conflict resolution. You will find his ideas thought-provoking and helpful in developing creative approaches to conflict resolution of all kinds. This should be especially helpful for ADR mediators in our magistrate-court mediation program. He speaks at the ADR meeting this Wednesday, March 16, at noon in the Davis Gallery. Lunch (from Jimmy Johns) will be provided.


Thanks to John Hickey for the write-up!
