Texas Bar Association Sponsors Human Rights Writing Contest

The International Law Section of the Texas State Bar is sponsoring a writing contest on human rights.   The contest is open to law students attending school in Texas, or Texan law students attending school elsewhere, including LLM students.  Deadline is March 1, 2019.  First prize, $1500 and a trip to the Bar Association’s annual institute.  According to the contest sponsors, “[t]he essay may address any aspect of international human rights law that the contestant chooses.”  

What a great way to get students thinking and writing about human rights law.  Would other bar associations consider similar contests?
