It's that time again! The ACS Supreme Court Preview /Review! Join the ACS and Prof. Raban for a discussion about the latest cases and decisions.
The First Amendment and the War on Terror at the Dawn of the Trump Administration.
Constitution Day lecture with Prof. Raban in room 184. Noon -1 pm.
Today we celebrate Constitution Day! Constitution Day is actually on Sunday, Sept. 17th, but the day is celebrated on the adjacent weekday when it falls on a weekend. Constitution Day was created in 2004 when Sen. Robert Byrd proposed an amendment to the Omnibus spending bill. In 2005, the US Department of Education announced that this law requires that any school receiving federal funding provide some kind of educational programming related to the American Constitution on Constitution Day. Traditionally, UO Law has taken on this responsibility because the rest of the university is not yet in session on Constitution Day. We don’t mind. We like to talk about the Constitution, and cake is a bonus.
ACS is partnering with The Public Law and Policy Program for a conversation concerning the First Amendment and the War on Terror at the Dawn of the Trump Administration with Professor Raban
This event will be held on Monday, Sept. 18 from 12-1 p.m. in room 184 of the law school.
ACS will be having a 1L Meet and Greet at noon on Tuesday, Sept. 5 in room 142 (tentative).
Come talk to the Board, ask questions, get a quick overview of the events we are having this year, and eat a cupcake!
Hope to see you there!
It was great to see all of the student interest at the Group Fair today! We will have the latest information sent out to the list very soon.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!
