Faculty members of AALS member and fee-paid law schools were invited to submit a proposal of a poster presentation for the 2011 AALS Annual Meeting in San Francisco, California (January 5-8, 2011).

Goal of Posters at AALS Annual Meeting 

Posters are intended to provide authors an opportunity to present in clear and succinct fashion the thesis and conclusion of their research or to describe teaching innovations outside formal program presentations. Because the focus is on the content of the research and innovative teaching, posters that are primarily promoting a book, software or materials or a law school program or project are not eligible for poster display. Other advertising or fliers are not permitted with posters.
