Harry Krause Emerging Family Law Scholars Workshop
The Family Law and Policy Program—in conjunction with the University of Minnesota School of Law, Bar Ilan University, the University of Indiana—Indianapolis School of Law and the International Society of Family Law—is pleased to provide a forum for emerging scholars to hone and sharpen their ideas in family law and related subjects through the Harry Krause Emerging Family Law Scholars Workshop. The workshop is named for Professor Krause, who as a member of the Illinois law faculty, mentored many budding family law scholars across a half century of teaching.
Selected scholars and where their resulting papers were published appear below for the 2015 and 2016 Workshops. A Call for Papers for the 2023-24 Workshop will be sent in Winter 2023 for the Spring Workshop.
