We’re excited to have Reason as a Silver Level sponsor this year at the 8th Annual International Students For Liberty Conference! Reason is the monthly print magazine of “free minds and free markets.” It covers politics, culture, and ideas through a provocative mix of news, analysis, commentary, and reviews. Reason provides a refreshing alternative to right-wing and left-wing opinion magazines by making a principled case for liberty and individual choice in all areas of human activity.

Reason has some fantastic sessions this year, and their Executive Director Nick Gillespie will be moderating Friday night’s discussion with Ron Paul and Judge Napolitano. The sessions are listed below:

General Sessions

 

How to Make the Libertarian Moment Permanent: Reason’s Guide to the 21st Century

Panel moderated by Nick Gillespie

Breakout Sessions

 

Nick Gillespie, Veronique de Rugy, Robby Soave, Screwing You with Your Pants On

Who could have imagined that the drug hazed youth of our parents generation would morph into the largest American demographic that relies on government. Baby boomers are single handedly increasing the national debt through ridiculous pension promises and federal entitlements and you’re paying for it all.

Katherine Mangu-Ward, Elizabeth Brown, Ron Bailey, Good news! Robots are going to take your job and have sex with your partner

Driverless cars, Amazon package drones, and automated McDonald’s cashiers are on the verge of reshaping the modern economy–and that’s just the beginning. Will the jobs they displace cause unique hardship or opportunity for civilization to grow? Also, sexbots.

Ron Bailey, The End of Doom: More Reasons to Hate Boomers

Ron Bailey’s new 2015 book called The End of Doom rebukes the health and environmental alarmism of too many pundits in America. With falling cancer rates, reduced costs of clean energy, population stability, and innovative cures to pollution Bailey offers a balanced and hopeful vision of humanity’s future.

Jack Hunter & Jeffrey Tucker, Voting or reading: How do we win?

Rep. Walter Jones, Antiwar Republican: A conversation with Rep. Walter Jones

From proposing “Freedom Fries” to being the most vocally antiwar representative in the House, Rep. Walter Jones’ foreign policy story makes him the most interesting man in the Congress. Join him for a discussion of his personal transition and what you can do to end entanglements abroad.

YAL Regional Directors, So you’re a libertarian. Who gives a $h*t?

What’s the point of being the smartest, purest, most well-educated libertarian on the planet if you don’t do anything about it? This interactive session will teach effective messaging and how to be successful recruiting students on a college campus.

Major Neill Franklin, Mike Riggs, Tim Lynch, moderated by Dr. Will Ruger,  Incarceration Nation: Police militarization and prohibition

Each day’s news brings new stories of militarized police brutality, often in connection with the drug war. Join movement leaders as they discuss over-criminalization and the negative effects of prohibition on society.

Kayla Westbrook, Will Adams, Casey Dietrich, Get paid to promote liberty: Find a job or internship in the movement

Are you a college graduate looking for a job? Is getting a good internship way more complicated than you thought it would be? Learn from expert (and employed) activists as they talk shop about how to score a job promoting your philosophy.
