Making Constitutional Law: On the Front Lines

All of our faculty members possess an unwavering dedication to their students and their scholarship. These three are shaping the future of law and the courts in substantive ways and their love for teaching transforms the ordinary classroom into an inspired place where ideas flourish.

Tara Grove

A renowned expert on constitutional law and an authority on textualism as an interpretive philosophy, Prof. Grove has published scholarship on those subjects in some of the leading law journals in the country. In 2021, she was among a select group named to the Presidential Commission on the Supreme Court of the United States, a bipartisan committee charged with examining proposals to reform the Court.

Lawrence Sager

Lawrence Sager is one of the nation’s preeminent constitutional theorists and scholars. He has written and co-written dozens of articles, many of them now classics in the canon of legal scholarship and our understanding of the founding document. His expertise also encompasses philosophy, and he helps lead our Law & Philosophy Program. 

Richard Albert

With a focus on constitution-making and constitutional design, Richard Albert is one of the premier scholars of comparative constitutional law. He is a prolific author, editor, speaker, and an advisor to governments and parliaments on constitutional reform.
