Conflict Resolution Program student Nancy Sharpless and faculty member Sherrill Hayes both recently had articles published on the widely read professional website mediate.com.
Nancy's article is entitled "Alternative Dispute Resolution: Alternative to the Legal System, Not Just to Court" .
Dr. Hayes's article is entitled "What Happened To The “A” In ADR?: Unintended Consequences Of Institutionalizing Mediation".
Both of these articles examine the role that conflict resolution can play inside and outside the court system and a view that the field should move back towards making ADR truly an alternative to court.
