Two EMLS officers have been selected as associate editors for the Appalachian Journal of Law. The competition for editing positions on the journal was intense, but both Matt Hardin and Westley Ketron were chosen to serve on the editing staff for 2012-2013. Both Ketron and Hardin will be writing publishable student notes over the coming academic year, and look forward to contributing to the academic conversation on legal and policy concerns in the mining industry. Each of these new editors has past experience with the mining industry; Ketron served this summer as a law clerk for Alpha Natural Resources, and Hardin as a clerk for Fogle Keller Purdy, PLLC, a Kentucky defense firm which frequently represents coal mining interests.
Next week, the Appalachian Natural Resources Law Journal will be making its selections. Check this blog to find out which EMLS members were selected as editors for that publication, which specializes in articles dealing with energy issues in Appalachia.
