Climate Law and Policy The world’s first legal research centre devoted to climate change was officially opened at The Australian National University by Environment Minister Peter Garrett in June 2008. The ANU Centre for Climate Law and Policy (CCLP) was established in response to a growing awareness of the legal dimensions of global warming.

LSS Law Ball 2010

Couldn't afford to fork out the $450 to get to Splendour? Don't worry we've got your back...for just $85 you can come to one of the biggest events of ANU's social calender - the LSS LAW BALL!

WHEN: Saturday 31st July
WHERE: National Ballroom, Hotel Realm
TIME: Pre drinks from 7:00pm. (Doors will strictly close at 7:30pm)

This year the theme, as voted by the people on the LSS website poll, is MAD MEN (Apparently quite a popular theme. If you are heading to the MedSoc bash the night before, you can let us know how it goes down...)

Haven't jumped on the Mad Men bandwagon yet? Wondering what the show is all about? Well, it isn't just a "theme", it is about a time, a place, a feeling. It's not just Marilyn's Hollywood, or JFK's America, it's 1960s New York, where the world is a prize for the taking.

Mad Men is about how those icons of not so long ago feel - stylish, suave, and sophisticated, a time with fewer consequences, fewer worries, fewer complications. Go back to a decade where politically correct was six martinis over lunch, then shut the door, and have a seat. Think bespoke suits, beautiful ball gowns and pearls. The 1960s before the mini and go-go boots came to fame.

TABLES
A word on tables: If you want to be seated with your friends at Law Ball then PLEASE be organised. We will be doing tables when you purchase your ticket - only people that have PURCHASED a ticket will be able to write their name down, so if you want to sit with your friends make sure you buy them all together. Otherwise we will put you on a random table. (Best way to avoid this is to purchase a table - there are 10 people to a table)

No changes will be made to tables once all tickets are sold!!!

Our friends at Monkey Bar have organised some awesome DJs to play on the night and have put on some amazing drink deals for Law Ball guests - standard drinks wills be $3-$4 and selected cocktails for $8-$10.

If you are not sure if you can make it to the actual Law Ball and would like to come to the after party please email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and we can try to arrange entry for you!
