Recent Vanderbilt Law School graduate Ramon Ryan has been selected for the 2021 Fellowships at Auschwitz for the Study of Professional Ethics (FASPE) program. Ryan, who will soon join Nashville’s Bass Berry & Sims as an associate, was one of only 16 law graduates chosen for the program. FASPE engages early-career professionals and graduate students in the fields of law, business, journalism, medicine and seminary in an intensive course of study focused on contemporary ethical issues in their professions. Fellows typically participate in a two-week program in Germany and Poland, which uses the conduct of lawyers in Nazi-occupied Europe as a way to reflect on legal ethics today. Ryan was the editor-in-chief of the Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment and Technology Law and last year authored a paper on satellites that prompted federal legislation. He is set to clerk for Judge Todd Hughes of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit starting in 2023.
