On January 28, the Consular Corps of Louisiana was delighted to invite international LLM Tulane students and faculty to our lunch meeting. Our honored guest and main speaker was the Irish Consul-General, Robert Hull.
Herbert V. Larson, Jr., Senior Professor of the Practice and Executive Director, International and Graduate Program of Tulane University School of Law and his colleague Vernon Palmer, who specializes in comparative law and European and French civil law, together with law students met with the 29 Consuls-General, Consuls, and Honorary Consuls in attendance.
Tulane’s Law School’s LLM and student exchange programs are amongst the oldest in the U.S. and extremely well regarded throughout the world. Tulane and its law and medical schools have been key sources of international relations for New Orleans since 1834.
Lastly, a new dean has been selected to lead the Louisiana Consular Corps and Bret Clesi, honorary consul general of the Republic of Albania who has done a fantastic job, handed over the gavel to Dean William H. Hines, honorary consul of Portugal.
