Congratulations to Professor Chris Jenks!

I am delighted to announce that Lt. Col. Chris Jenks — currently the head of the International Law Branch at the U.S. Army JAG, an occasional contributor to Opinio Juris, and my very first PhD student (my colleague Gerry Simpson is his other supervisor) — has accepted a tenure-track assistant professor position at SMU’s Dedman School of Law.  Chris will be a great addition to SMU’s faculty, which already has a number of excellent young scholars who write about international law, including Jenia Iontcheva Turner, Anthony Colangelo, and Jeffrey Kahn.

Congratulations, my friend!
