The rights secured by the First Amendment include the liberties of religion, speech, and the press, as well as the freedoms to peacefully assemble and petition the government. Texas Law's newest Center, led by Director Steven T. Collis, provides opportunities for deliberation about these rights and the controversies related to them. Such deliberation may occur in forms that include conferences, scholarship, lectures, conversations, and debates.
Asma Uddin (professor, author and attorney) and award-winning journalist Emma Green (The New Yorker) join The First Amendment Center for this important discussion.
The Global Summit offers the opportunity to showcase ideas in all areas of constitutionalism, to highlight publications in the field, to engage in rewarding and collaborative intellectual exchange, and to enjoy occasions for informal interaction.
After a nationwide search, the Center is pleased to announce that Professor John Greil will be joining the law school faculty as a Clinical Professor to teach in the Law & Religion Clinic.
