Ivaylo Valchev Participates in Richter Scholars Program at Lake Forest College

2011 Jul 15

Ivaylo Valchev `14 of Arlington Heights, IL has been named a Richter Scholar at Lake Forest College.

The Richter Apprentice Scholar Program offers a unique research opportunity to a small group of outstanding students early in their college careers. During the summer between their first and second years, Richter Scholars are employed for ten weeks as apprentice scholars working one-on-one with faculty members conducting independent research.

Valchev is researching whether or not the recent legislative banning of the use of international and foreign law is warranted by examining references to international and foreign law in decisions of the Rehnquist and Robertscourts with Professor Chad McCracken.
