Indiana University Department of Recreation, Park, and Tourism Studies presents the inaugural lecture series honoring the legacy of Dr. Betty van der Smissen (M. S. 1954, Re. D. 1955) on Friday, April 22, 2011 at the Indiana Memorial Union on the Bloomington campus.

Beginning in 1955, Dr. van der Smissen’s career in higher education defined her professional life by integrating teaching, research, service, and mentoring of both faculty and students until the final days of her life. Her expertise in risk management and legal liability made her one of the foremost authorities in the country, and she cherished working with her law colleagues and loved debating the issues of the day. In that spirit, Reb Gregg and Jim Moss, two of Betty’s esteemed colleagues, will present and debate selected legal issues in outdoor recreation in a lively, entertaining, and educational format.

Reb Gregg, from Houston, Texas, is a leading attorney, lecturer and writer in legal liability issues for adventure, education and recreation based outdoor programs. Jim Moss, from Denver, Colorado, is an attorney, professor, speaker, writer and expert witness specializing in outdoor recreation law.

Attendance at the presentations and debate are free.

Both presentations are being simultaneously web cast beginning at 1:30 p.m. (EDT) on April 22, 2011 as part of the Department’s professional learning system powered by the Eppley Institute for Parks and Public Lands. The web cast will be available to anyone interested in continuing professional training, and .1 CEUs are available for attendees with payment of a nominal fee. Interested individuals can register for this webcast at www.eppley.org in the Course Catalog under the Safety (Facility Management) category.
