If you’re into immigration law at all, you’ll know that Kurzban’s Immigration Law Sourcebook is the book to have on your shelves. And today, I am proud to announce that our new copy of the 11th edition has arrived!
It’s green, it’s shiny, it has that new book smell and it’s full of immigration law goodness. And did I mention it was a gift?
Yes, all thanks is due to the Brehon Law Society for donating the funds to pay for our copy of Kurzban’s and thanks also to Tom Ivory, one of the Brehons who volunteers at our monthly legal clinic, for suggesting this wonderful donation.
So thank you Brehons! I promise we’ll put the book to good use – it won’t be shiny for long.
If you’d like to make a donation to support our legal clinic or any of our other programs, please don’t hesitate to contact me on 610-789-6355 or visit our “Donate” page for more information.
We were absolutely thrilled to welcome John Byrne and Chris Buchanan to the Immigration Center for lunch today. For those of you who haven’t yet come across the John Byrne Band, you can check out a few clips on our youtube channel and on John’s website (where you can also buy copies of his new CD). And if that’s not enough, both Brian Mengini and Denise Foley were on hand to take lots and lots of photos!
John and Chris played a mix of original songs and old favourites and had everyone singing along – even Breac – though some people felt that his howls were more of a protest than a sign of appreciation.
