Three Cardozo School of Law Professors to Present Papers at Stanford/Yale Junior Faculty Forum

May 20, 2005
-- Three faculty members of the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law of Yeshiva University – Professors Barton Beebe, Daniel Crane, and Myriam Gilles – were recently chosen to present their work at the sixth annual Stanford/Yale Junior Faculty Forum, to be held at Stanford Law School on May 27 and 28. No other law school has multiple faculty members presenting their work this year. “Cardozo has been known since its founding for a young, vibrant and prolific faculty. We are delighted that the junior members of our faculty, who follow in that tradition, are again being recognized for their scholarship by the larger scholarly community,” Dean David Rudenstine said. Professors Scott Shapiro, Kevin Stack, and former Cardozo professor David Golove were selected in previous years. Last year Kevin Stack presented The Statutory President, which was published in the Iowa Law Review in January. This is the second time Professor Beebe was chosen. Professor Beebe, who has taught at Cardozo since 2000, will present Search and Permission in Trademark as part of an Intellectual Property panel. Professors Mark Lemley and Margaret Jane Radin of Stanford Law School will serve as commentators and the paper will be published in the Michigan Law Review. Professor Crane will present The Paradox of Predatory Pricing as part of an antitrust session and will receive comments by Prof. Jeremy Bulow of Stanford University and Prof. Alvin Klevorick of Yale Law School. His paper will be published in the Cornell Law Review. Professor Gilles will present Opting out of Liability: The Forthcoming Near-Total Demise of the Modern Class Actions as part of a civil litigation and dispute resolution panel with commentators Prof. Pamela Karlan of Stanford Law School and Prof. Judith Resnik of Yale Law School. Her paper will be published in the Michigan Law Review. The forum was founded by a law professor from Stanford and one from Yale and is held each spring – at Yale one year and Stanford the next. The topics alternate between private and dispute resolution law and public law and humanities. This year’s topics will cover private law and dispute resolution. Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law is well known for its prolific and high-profile faculty as well as top-ranked programs in intellectual property, alternative dispute resolution, corporate and criminal law, entertainment and communications law, legal theory, and Jewish law. The Law School’s clinical program has been cited as one of the best in the country. Cardozo has graduated more than 8,500 students since its founding in 1976.
