Columbia Law Students Visit West Point

Twenty-five students from Columbia Law School accompanied by Columbia law professor Matt Waxman visited West Point and the Department of Law to Discuss Law of Armed Conflict Issues. The students attended class with cadets, then had the opportunity to eat lunch with cadet law majors in the Mess Hall. Following lunch, the group took a historical tour of West Point, then met with D/Law faculty to discuss law of armed conflict vignettes. This event strengthened ties between the two programs and was part of a larger effort to enhance civil-military relationships and enrich scholar/practitioner collaboration in the area of international law.
