Until the very end, my dear friend and colleague Burns Weston was passionate, hard-driving and committed to changing the world. That’s why I was stunned to learn that Burns passed away yesterday, a few weeks shy of his 82nd birthday. When he failed to make a scheduled telephone call, friends checked his condo and found him dead. Burns was a well-known international law and international human rights scholar at the University of Iowa College of Law. He was also founder of its noted Center for Human Rights.
