Students with the International Relations Organization (IRO) learned about Germany and German law from Stocks, German lawyers practicing in California and German interns working at the consulate.

About 40 USC Law students and Prof. Edwin Smith attended the Feb. 27 event.

"Consul General Stocks was an excellent host and we had a lot of great conversations with German lawyers who attended the event," said Josh Lockman, president of the IRO.
