As mentioned on the blog earlier, the heart and soul of the blog, Andrea Kupfer Schneider has been selected as the 2017 Recipient of the ABA Section of Dispute Resolution Award for Outstanding Scholarly Work. This award honors individuals whose scholarship has contributed significantly to the field of dispute resolution. She absolutely deserves this honor. However, I don’t think it adequately addresses the fun-loving, sarcastic side of Andrea.

Therefore I propose that we honor her in another way. Let’s create poetry and/or songs. I started with Haiku but limericks and sonnets have also been proposed. Feel free to post them here in the blog comments or forward them to me if you won’t be in San Francisco. Or blurt them out at her randomly during the ABA DR conference, preferable between sessions, not during them. If you would be more comfortable speaking her praise after a drink, join us Friday night at the conference as we raise a toast to her accomplishments and she toasts us in return.
