Richard L. Aynes Writing Competition
In recognition of his many contributions to the law school’s intellectual property law program, the school’s Intellectual Property Advisory Council created the Richard L. Aynes Writing Competition. This competition is open to all students enrolled at The University of Akron School of Law. Each participating student will be required to submit a paper (minimum of 10 pages) on a constitutional aspect of intellectual property law. Students may submit original papers written specially for the competition, or papers already written to meet their GWR requirement, for the Akron Intellectual Property Journal, or for a course grade.
A panel consisting of Professors Aynes and Samuels will select the best paper. The author of such paper will receive a $500 cash award.
All papers must be submitted on or before February 10, 2012. The award will be presented at the March 20th meeting of the Intellectual Property Advisory Council.
For further information, please contact Professor Samuels at x7898 or at samuels@uakron.edu
