Symposium Coverage from Chapel Hill News and Durham Animal Advocacy Examiner

We had an amazing first Animal Law Symposium last Saturday! Thanks so much to everyone who attended, and to all our wonderful speakers. We'll have audio and materials from the Symposium posted soon. Meanwhile, some press coverage:

The Chapel Hill News wrote an article about how our SALDF organization was formed (just last year by 3L Elizabeth Overcash!) and some background on the Symposium speakers. Read it at http://www.chapelhillnews.com/2012/03/10/70522/legal-eagles-aid-animals.html.

Elizabeth Wilson at the Durham Animal Advocacy Examiner reviewed our Symposium, covering our various panels and speakers, and declared it a resounding success. Read it at http://www.examiner.com/animal-advocacy-in-durham/unc-saldf-s-animal-law-symposium-ruled-an-overwhelming-success-review.
