Međunarodna udruga savjetnika za igre na sreću (IAGA) objavila je dobitnike stipendije Shannon Bybee za 2018., godišnjeg programa koji dodjeljuje nagrade za najbolje znanstvene istraživačke radove koje su o relevantnim temama o igrama napisali akreditirani studenti pravnog fakulteta kao dio njihovog rada tijekom predavanja školske godine.
Godišnji podnesci se traže od studenata prava na pravnim fakultetima u Sjevernoj Americi, a ocjenjuje ih odbor odvjetnika članova IAGA-e koji se bave pravom igara na sreću. Dobitnici stipendija za 2018. godinu su:
“The Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act and its Legal Implications: How Its Invalidation Will Impact Indian Gaming’s Legal and Regulatory Framework” by Francisco Olea, University of Arizona College of Law
“It’s Time for Wizards to Give Up the Illusion and Show Their Cards: How Wizards of the Coast Circumvent Gaming Law to Make Millions” by David M. Stern, UNLV William S. Boyd School of Law

“The Bybee Scholarship is an excellent way to encourage the next generation of gaming industry legal experts to become engaged in critical gaming issues,” commented Jennifer Roberts, Bybee Scholarship Committee Co-Chair and Associate Director of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) International Center for Gaming Regulation. “With so many interesting topics to cover, this year we received a diverse selection of submissions covering everything from exploring problem gambling issues in Victoria, Australia to online gaming regulations in Canada and the US, and the impact of the sports betting invalidation of PASPA for tribes. We are pleased that we continue to receive such excellent submissions and look forward to presenting this year’s winners with their awards at IAGA’s G2E cocktail reception in Las Vegas.”
The Shannon Bybee Scholarship Award was established to honour the memory of Shannon Bybee, one of IAGA’s founders who had a distinguished career as a gaming attorney, Nevada regulator, industry executive and pioneer in the field of education in casino operations and gaming law. Inducted into the American Gaming Association’s Hall of Fame in 2002 because of his significant contributions to responsible gaming, Bybee also played an important role in the development of problem gambling regulations and advocacy.
