The 2013 Mid-Atlantic People of Color Legal Scholarship Conference (MAPOC 2013) is fast approaching. MAPOC 2013 will be held January 25-27, 2013, at the University of Pennsylvania School of Law in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. If you have not already done so, please save the date.
A substantial part of the conference will be devoted to hearing and critiquing works-in-progress by new and experienced scholars in an affirming, supportive and safe environment. As a side benefit, MAPOC occurs just in time to figure out if your draft article can be tweaked to be ready to submit in the February/March law review cycle or is more profitably bound to become your summer project. If you are interested in presenting or evaluating a work-in-progress or if you have no idea why the 3S (supportive, serious and safe) environment that MAPOC has always provided is necessary for a fair critique of the work of scholars of color (and fellow travelers), please contact Prof. Hank Chambers at hchamber@richmond.edu or 804-289-8199.
