New issue.

Check the library door. The first issue of inter alia is ready to be consumed.

Issue soon.

At 11:30 AM on Monday, SBA has arranged to have all the student organizations say a few words to the incoming 1Ls. And, for some reason, inter alia has been included in that presentation. Which means I need to stand up in front of a bunch of 1Ls and say a few words. Lucky me.

I'm planning on publishing the first issue of inter alia on Wednesday, August 31st. So please send submissions to crtaylor@uidaho.edu.

I'd appreciate confessional pieces. A "what I did last summer" diatribe would be welcome. Or a "I've only been here a week, and I'm already sick of law school" rant. Or a "Trial Ad is just another word for purgatory" bitch-fest.

I'll accept pieces which discuss the finer points in some obscure or old-timey legal discipline. The proper color for the saddle according to donkey show law in Texas before and after statehood, for example. Or a discussion of the rise of international admiralty law, the decline of piracy, and the phenomenon known as global warming.

And of course I'll accept any event announcements. I know, for example, that SODA is planning its annual drag show for Friday, September 16. And I'd like any event coverage, even if it is self-serving.

And I'll take anything else that can be printed on paper. Photographs of oversized kittens. The arrest warrant for your great uncle Zachary. A contract for the sale of 1000 widgets. Anything. Unless it sucks. In which case I'll pretend the paper was full, using one clever nom de plume after another, until you're convinced I have an army of writers. Whereas it is often just me and the hundred monkeys, fighting over a single typewriter. Damned expensive ribbons.
