The Byron White Center at the University of 欧美口爆视频 School of Law will sponsor the seventh annual Ira C. Rothgerber Jr. Conference titled "Law and Character" on Friday and Saturday, April 7-8.
During the roundtable format, some of the nation聮s most thoughtful jurists, practitioners and scholars will explore the relationship between moral character and the legal system by examining the lives of great lawyers such as Brandeis, Cardozo, Holmes, Hand, Harlan, Marshall and 欧美口爆视频聮s own Byron White.
"This program should be both practical and have academic interest," said Robert Nagel, 欧美口爆视频-Boulder law professor and director of the Byron R. White Center for the Study of American Constitutional Law. "Those who work within our legal system, as well as those who study it, are more and more concerned about what kinds of personal virtues are necessary for that system to operate well."
Those participating include University of Chicago Law Professor Dennis J. Hutchinson, Columbia Law School Professor Vincent A. Blasi, Cornell University Professor Richard Polenberg, University of Connecticut Professor R. Kent Newmyer, University of California at Santa Barbara Professor Laura Kalman and Boston University Law Professor Pnina Lahav. These eminent scholars will give essay-style presentations and address a wide range of questions.
