Correction to the Correction to the Corrections and Clarifications (IMPORTANT)

ILSA must issue an important correction to the Corrections and Clarifications to the Jessup 2020 Problem. Clarification #8 had an incorrect date. The correct date should be 20 June 2019. Unfortunately, an earlier post had incorrectly stated that the date should be 20 April 2019. That was incorrect, and we apologize for the mistake and any confusion that that may have caused.

You can download an updated version of the Corrections and Clarifications below.

ILSA welcomes Samantha Wilson

ILSA is pleased to announce a new addition to our team, Samantha Wilson, who will be taking over as Program Assistant. Originally from Washington state, Samantha is a recent transplant to the Baltimore-DC area. She graduated from McDaniel College (Westminster, MD) in 2018, completing her studies in Political Science and French Language & Culture. An avid international learner, she most recently completed a year abroad in Cote d’Ivoire as a Fulbright-appointed English Teaching Assistant. When she isn’t working on the Jessup, Samantha enjoys eating copious amounts of papaya, practicing Muay Thai, reading books of varying genres, and learning Russian. We hope everyone will welcome her to the team.
