[blindlaw] 2011 Jacobus tenBroek Disability Law Symposium

[Peter Donahue]

Hello Fred and everyone,

    With such a long lead time there's no reason why you can't make plans 
now to attend the 2011 Jacobus TenBroek Disability Law Symposium in person 
to avail yourself of all it has to offer. Perhaps this is one of the reasons 
why the announcement was made now to allow those wishing to attend to begin 
making their arrangements to be there in the flesh.

With the long lead time for the 2011 Jacobus tenBroek Law Symposium I wish 
to raise two issues:
First: Organizers of the important symposium should consider alternative 
geographic sites for this annual legal conference.  Limiting the site every 
year to the NFB Baltimore headquarters limits the ability of many to 
participate in the discussion and interact with attorneys and otehrs who are 
advocates for blind and disabled.   It is rather ironic that a conference 
named in honor of a long time professor of law at the University of 
California is never held in that state.  Perhaps for the 2012 or 1023 
symposium the conference could be held in California, Texas, Colorado or 
another Western state.

Second:  Will the 2011 tenBroek Symposium be webcast or streamed so that 
others unable to travel to Baltimore can fully participate?  In this current 
technological age there is no valid excuse for not webcasting this important 
event.

Thank you:   Fred W. Lopez, Member DC Bar
