The Supreme Court’s Most Extraordinary Term–Introduction

Abstract

In this symposium celebrating a presidential inaugural, we present the scholarly work of some of the most exceptional constitutional scholars and commentators of our time regarding a truly extraordinary term of the U.S. Supreme Court. Present for the symposium were over 400 registrants, including distinguished federal and state court judges, law professors from around the nation, active constitutional litigators and students from numerous university law schools. Many who came study with us or in nearby universities; others traveled significant distances to join us. All found a magnificent university and campus that in slightly more than six decades, has grown in stature to be-by the ubiquitous measure of U.S. News-one of the top 50 universities in the United States.
