MARITIME LAW SOCIETY
Tulane's Maritime Law Society sponsors frequent programs exploring various aspects of admiralty and maritime law. By taking advantage of the presence of a significant maritime industry in New Orleans and of visits to Tulane by distinguished practitioners and professors of maritime law from throughout the world, the society presents an impressive range of programs. Recent programs have included tours of tug boats and other "hardware" of the industry, as well as speakers discussing such varied subjects as the US Coast Guard, maritime treasure and salvage, careers in maritime law, protection and indemnity insurance, the more practical aspects of maritime practice, and comparative maritime law.
