JUSTICE ACTION CENTER COLLOQUIUM (2) (CON210)

Professors Deborah Archer, Richard Marsico and Frank Munger

A graded 2-credit mandatory seminar for Harlan Scholars who affiliate with JAC. Each week students are assigned readings relating to JACs curricular groupings, including civil rights and civil liberties; environ­mental law; family law; immigration law; anti-discrimination law and economic justice; labor and employ­ment law; and mental disability law. The readings in­troduce students to these subjects and a difficult issue on the subject of lawyering for justice, describe contrasting per­spec­tives on public interest or cause lawyer­ing, or evaluate the efficacy of legal movements for justice. The Colloquium is open to a limited number of additional students at the instructors discretion.
