Constitutional Lawyering: A Discussion with CUNY Law Professors

This event will be a discussion with CUNY Law professors about constitutional lawyering. The event would be centered around practicing civil rights law, the constitutionality of free speech/hate speech, and whether the Constitution could be used as a vehicle or obstacle to prison abolition, among other topics. We have confirmed two professors as speakers so far and are soliciting one more. We are planning to have food for attendees.

Fall Symposium

The Journal of Law and Gender is cosponsoring a symposium with ACS, WLA, Lambda, and the Harvard Alliance for Reproductive Justice in Milstein East, from 10:00am - 2:40pm. The symposium will begin with a breakfast and networking hour, followed by three sets of panels featuring over a dozen scholars, practitioners, and advocates. The topics will range from gender justice to state-level policy and litigation to administrative law post-Chevron.

Behind the Robe

The IU McKinney School of Law chapter of the American Constitution Society will be hosting an event on November 15th from 2-4 pm.

To promote ACS's commitment to its Path to the Bench initiative, we’ve proposed a networking event titled Behind the Robe. This event will be a unique opportunity for students to meet judges from diverse backgrounds in a speed-questionnaire format. Students will be able to ask judges questions about their careers, the challenges they've faced, and their paths to the bench.

This event will be held at the Statehouse and will be in partnership with the Indiana Supreme Court's Race and Gender Commission.

Cherished Hearts

Cherished Hearts will come speak about their diversion program for human trafficking victims.
