Second-Best Free Exercise: UT Law Alum Christopher Lund

TNH 2.137 (Gayle Classroom)

UT Law alum Professor Christopher C. Lund (Wayne State University Law School) discusses his new article regarding why the Roberts Court’s new regime to protect the free exercise of religion is a second-best approach that risks leaving minority religions under-protected while not fixing the very problems the Court has long sought to avoid. He will also discuss the instability of free exercise doctrine and where we go from here.

Lunch will be offered. We hope you join us!
