I am pleased to announce that the following student notes/comments have been selected for publication in the 2012-2013 Akron Law Review. These articles were selected from a very competitive group of student articles by last year’s Editorial Board. These students worked hard to produce timely and well-written articles, which I am honored to include in next year’s volume of the Akron Law Review.
Ryan Doringo – “Revival: Toward a Formal Neutrality Approach to Economic Development Transfers to Religious Institutions”
Justin Green – “The Consumer-Redistributive Stance: A Perspective on Restoring Balance to Transactions Involving Consumer Standard-Form Contracts”
Jessica Knopp – “The Unconstitutionality of Ohio’s House Bill 125: The Heartbeat Bill”
Aaron Richardson – “Hite v. Falcon Partners: Why delay rental payment alone under an oil and gas lease should never extend the lease beyond the primary term”
Brendan Sorg – “Is Meaningful Peer Review Headed Back to Florida?”

Important Message from Dean Martin H. Belsky
Dear Akron Law Alums-in-Waiting:
On June 30, I will reach the end of my term as Dean. Yesterday afternoon, I told the Provost that I will not be seeking reappointment as the Dean of The University of Akron School of Law.
Over the past five years, I have met many of you for lunch or dinner and then again in class or other law school functions. We are proud of your successes and your membership in our Akron Law community.
For our incoming alums in waiting, I look forward to meeting you on June 16th at our admitted student program.
After completing my term as Dean, I will return to full-time teaching at the Law School.
I have appreciated your intellectual curiosity, friendship, and support, and have enjoyed my time as your Dean. I look forward to continuing as a faculty member. This is an outstanding law school with a talented and impressive faculty and staff, loyal and active alumni, and interesting and challenging “alums in waiting.”
Our talented team of administrators will continue to be here to serve you.
Thanks for all you do!
Marty
