Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia will headline a list of prominent speakers this year at the Kansas University School of Law.
The speakers also include Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Linda Greenhouse and former U.S. Solicitor General Seth Waxman.
Scalia on Nov. 15 and 16 will make his second trip to KU in five years. He will speak to a Constitutional Law class and be host to a series of forums for students, faculty, staff and alumni. The events will not be open to the public.
Scalia also will attend a reception at the law school honoring KU students and graduates who have served as judicial clerks at the state and federal level.
Greenhouse, Supreme Court correspondent for the New York Times and a Pulitzer Prize winner, will speak at 3:30 p.m. Oct. 17 in 104 Green Hall. She has covered the court since 1978 and appears regularly on the PBS program “Washington Week in Review.”
Her lecture, titled “The Supreme Court After Bush v. Gore,” will be open to the public.
“I think it’s one of the most important things we can do educationally, to let people see a real live justice or somebody like Linda who’s covered the court for years and years,” said Stephen McAllister, law dean. “It’s important to let students hear it from their mouths. It also makes someone like a justice more human.”
Waxman will speak in the spring semester, but no date has been set.
Other law school events scheduled:
“The Media and Government Regulation,” a symposium sponsored by the Kansas Journal of Law & Public Policy and the Media, Law and Policy Program at 1:30 p.m. Nov. 8.
A symposium on the impact of international economic and financial organizations on national sovereignty Feb. 28.
