Dr. Eileen Servidio participated in an Extraordinary General Meeting of the French National Bar Council (Conseil National des Barreaux) held in Paris on September 25th in the presence of the French Minister of Justice Michèle Alliot-Marie. Dr. Servidio contributed to a workshop about the reform of the French penal procedure and presented a study on the role of lawyers in the American procedure compared to the French procedure. She also shared with the audience composed of French lawyers the Anglo-Saxon perspective on the new reform project of the French judiciary (projet Léger) which proposes the abolishment of the investigating judges (juges d'instruction) who have been a specificity of the French legal system. |

From current issues in the Middle East taught together by an Iranian historian and an Israelli journalist, to NGO management taught by the director of Human Rights Watch in France, every class was fascinating and taught by some of the most impressive people I could ever have imagined. I immediately felt at home in this small but active AGS community because, although students and professors are all from different parts of the world, everyone takes the time to understand each other's perspective. Overall, I would recommend AGS to anyone with a thirst for intellectual stimulation and a drive to not only understand the world of international relations, but engage in it..
