On March 16, ASL hosted the first annual Black Lung Conference, which was organized entirely by students in the Energy & Mineral Law Society. 38 attorneys, along with government officials, a physician, and a retired judge, gathered in Grundy to learn about the state and federal Black Lung claims processes.
"I'm proud of the EMLS for organizing this conference, and proud of the school for stepping to the forefront in promoting continuing legal education in Appalachia. I'm glad I chose to come to ASL, a school where students have opportunities to take the lead and design conferences from the ground up, shaping the future of legal education in the region. I'm especially humbled at what we were able to accomplish, and am already looking forward to next year's event." said Matt Harden ASL EMLS President.
