The Law Of Reputation And The Interest Of The Audience, Laura A. Heymann Sep 2011

The Law Of Reputation And The Interest Of The Audience, Laura A. Heymann

Faculty Publications

Although an individual has control over many of the statements, acts, and other biographical data points that are used to construct her reputation, she does not ultimately have control over the result of that reputational assessment, the pronouncement of which is a task reserved to others. Reputation is fundamentally a social concept; it does not exist until a community collectively forms a judgment about an individual or firm that has the potential to guide the community’s future interactions. Despite reputation’s relational nature, discussions of the law’s interest in reputation tend to focus on one of two parties: the individual or …

Odious Discrimination And The Religious Exemption Question, Laura S. Underkuffler May 2011

Odious Discrimination And The Religious Exemption Question, Laura S. Underkuffler

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

Recently, claims have been asserted that religious exemptions should be afforded to individuals who object to providing public and commercial services to gay and lesbian individuals, as otherwise mandated by law (e.g., municipal clerks who must grant same-sex marriage licenses, or commercial vendors who are asked to serve at same-sex weddings). This article argues that just as religious exemptions of this sort are not granted for discrimination on the basis of race, religion, national origin, or gender, they should not be granted for discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or transgender status. Discrimination on the basis of an individual's …

In An Academic Voice: Antisemitism And Academy Bias, Kenneth Lasson Jan 2011

In An Academic Voice: Antisemitism And Academy Bias, Kenneth Lasson

All Faculty Scholarship

Current events and the recent literature strongly suggest that antisemitism and anti-Zionism are often conflated and can no longer be viewed as distinct phenomena. The following paper provides an overview of contemporary media and scholarship concerning antisemitic/anti-Zionist events and rhetoric on college campuses. This analysis leads to the conclusion that those who are naive about campus antisemitism should exercise greater vigilance and be more aggressive in confronting the problem.

Grading The Graders And Reforming The Reform: An Analysis Of The State Of Public Education Ten Years After No Child Left Behind, Jonathan C. Augustine, Craig M. Freeman Dec 2010

Grading The Graders And Reforming The Reform: An Analysis Of The State Of Public Education Ten Years After No Child Left Behind, Jonathan C. Augustine, Craig M. Freeman

Jonathan C. Augustine

Congress overwhelmingly passed the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001(“NCLB”), bipartisan legislation intended to bring about substantive reform in public education. The purpose of this article, written ten years after NCLB’s enactment, is to analyze the practical effects of NCLB’s theoretical solutions to public education’s systemic problems. Using Louisiana’s public education system as the real-world model for the law’s application, the authors ultimately recommend specific solutions for the president and Congress to consider as they contemplate changes to NCLB. The authors, like other education advocates referenced in this article, support a triparate partnership approach to educating public school children. …
