Food for Thought Dinners: The Berkman Center invites you to join us for dinner this term for informal discussions among students taking the various cyberlaw-related courses offered at HLS this Fall.

Please contact Wendy Koslow at the Berkman Center (e-mail: wkoslow at cyber.law.harvard.edu) if you are interested in signing up for a FFT Dinner or, better yet, access this web app. |
