Philantropy Roundtable 2013 Annual Meeting

"Teaching Constitutional Principles to Future Lawyers

Palos Verdes 7

The arguments have been honed. The briefs have been filed. Starting on the first Monday in October, all that remains is for the attorneys to stand before the Supreme Court. Thousands of man-hours go into those oral arguments and the rapid-fire questions from the Justices. Yet the foundation for those few high-stakes moments is laid in constitutional law classes, where professors help future lawyers learn the principles of Constitutional interpretation. In recent years, donors have given increasing attention to fostering constitutional teaching. Three of these professors—who do not always reach the same conclusion—will explore how donors can continue to foster America’s Constitutional principles.

Michael W. McConnell, director of the Constitutional Law Center, Stanford Law School
Eugene Volokh, Gary T. Schwartz professor of law, UCLA School of Law
John Yoo, professor of law, University of California, Berkeley School of Law
Truman Anderson, executive director, Stuart Family Foundation (Moderator)"
