SEALS Annual Conference

I regret to inform you that SEALS is now on a waiting list for rooms for the upcoming meeting.  The good news is that Boca Resort has been very accommodating, and has allowed us to exceed our room block.  For some of our meeting days, they have allowed us to substantially exceed our room block.  So, at the moment, we have reservations for hundreds of rooms more than we contracted for.  Nevertheless, we still have a significant number of attendees on the waiting list.  For those on the waiting list, we HOPE that rooms will open up around June 15th. CAVEAT FOR THOSE WHO ARE HOLDING ROOMS: Please be aware that, as in prior years, there is a “penalty date.”

Dear Program Committee Members: In mid-January, we will release a final “for reliance” program.  At this point, I really need your help on two things.  First, if you are aware of any problems with the program (e.g., programs that are scheduled for the same time that should NOT conflict with each), please let me know ASAP.  Second, and very important, for any programs or discussion groups that do not have moderators listed, you are free to choose your own moderator.  However, if you fail to do so by the time I release the January program, we will ask the Moderator Committee to appoint one.  So, if you don’t have a moderator listed, and you wish to choose your own, please

The Southeastern Association of Law Schools(SEALS) is pleased to host the third annual “New Voices in Labor and Employment Law” program during the 2015 SEALS Annual Meeting in Boca Raton, Florida.
