A busy week of school kicks-off ... and ends with something exciting

This is my first full week at school, so things are starting to get busier.

On the plus side, I have this event to look forward to this weekend:

Ave Maria [Law School] to host John Paul II Symposium

(May 31, 2006) – Our Sunday Visitor Institute recently awarded Ave Maria School of Law a $12,500 grant to help fund an upcoming symposium titled, “John Paul II and the Law,” set to take place September 15-16, 2006.

The Symposium will explore the potential impact of Pope John Paul II’s writings on the law. World-renowned legal and religious scholars will present papers, and discuss such topics as sanctity of life, religious freedom and the social teachings of the Church. The articles presented will be published in Volume 5 of the Ave Maria Law Review, available in the spring or summer of 2007. [More...]

A good group of speakers, to be sure (PDF).

There's another great local event on the horizon. I'll be posting details on that shortly...
