Bakke To The Wall: The Crisis Of Bakkean Diversity, Gabriel J. Chin

William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal

In the years since the United States Supreme Court's affirmative action holding in Board of Regents v. Bakke, many educational institutions have struggled to apply Bakke's doctrine to their admissions policymaking. Professor Chin asserts that Bakke is incoherent because it does not explain whether the diversity it tries to foster is cultural or racial. Furthermore, he argues that neither a racial nor a cultural basis works under the Bakke scheme, leading to the difficulties schools confront in framing an affirmative action program.

Focusing on law school admissions policies, Professor Chin argues that because of Bakke's weakness as law, it is …

The Ten Precepts Of American Slavery Jurisprudence: Chief Justice Roger Taney's Defense And Justice Thurgood Marshall's Condemnation Of The Precept Of Black Inferiority, A. Leon Higginbotham Jr.

Cardozo Law Review

Approximately twenty-five years ago, a group of thoughtful scholars, under the tutelage of Stanley Katz and Owen Fiss, met at the University of Chicago to discuss slavery law. Stanley Katz has previously noted that the conference generated extraordinary academic inquiries, as well as many books and articles. In this Article, I will describe briefly the intellectual journey I have traveled which was, in no small part, shaped by the conference and the interrelationships I have had since then, with so many scholars, as we have tried to get better insights into the interrelated issues of bondage, freedom, and the Constitution.

Dna Fingerprinting: The Failings Of Frye, John Mccabe

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This article examines a line of precedent which has utilized the Frye standard to exclude forensic DNA evidence. An analysis of these cases provides support for the criticism that the Frye standard is subject to manipulation by those seeking to exclude evidence. Examining the scientific debate concerning the statistical interpretation of DNA evidence reveals that the Frye standard is a poor conceptual framework to evaluate an emerging forensic technique. The ambiguities of Frye allow the presentation of scientific controversy, which is inherent in any scientific advance, as constituting a lack of general acceptance. Furthermore, the adversarial nature of the Frye …

Born To Lose: The Illinois "Baby Richard" Case--How Examining His Father's Pre-Birth Conduct Might Have Led To A Different Ending For Richard, Gerald W. Huston

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This casenote examines the factual and legal circumstances surrounding the controversial "Baby Richard" case--a case in which the courts applied a "best interests" test, and in so doing, removed a child from the home of his adoptive parents to return the child to his birth parents. By drawing comparisons to practices in other jurisdictions, the author concludes that a thorough examination of the birth father's pre-birth conduct likely would have changed the court's decision.

The Conclusion That A Sinister Conspiracy Of Foreign Origin Controls Organized Crime: The Influence Of Nativism In The Kefauver Committee Investigation, David R. Wade

Northern Illinois University Law Review

The Special Senate Committee to Investigate Organized Crime in Interstate Commerce began its work on May 10, 1950 and concluded with the submission of its final report on May 1, 1951. The function of the Committee was to fully study the extent to which organized crime makes use of the facilities of interstate commerce. Following hearings held in 14 cities and testimony from more than 600 witnesses, the Committee concluded that a sinister conspiracy of foreign origin controls organized crime. The Committee's hearings were the first Congressional Committee hearings televised live to a national audience. This Article examines the influence …

The Origins Of The Law Of Slavery In British North America, William M. Wiecek

Cardozo Law Review

In American experience, slavery originally appeared as a response to economic need. Subsequently, racism emerged as a justification for slavery, required as a response to the inherent contradictions of slavery. First there was slavery, then racism, then a fatal fusion of the two.

Environmental Reform In An Era Of Political Discontent, Walter R. Burkley

Vanderbilt Law Review

When Congress sought in 1995 to restructure the federal environmental regulatory schemes, it looked like a good fight to pick.' Congress, Republican-controlled for the first time in decades, was armed with an apparent mandate to shrink the federal government. Moreover, Americans were concerned about jobs and the economy. Environmental regulation, so the argument goes, impedes competitiveness, which in turn leads to loss of jobs. In addition, if history is any guide, environmental concerns tend to suffer in times when the economic interest of individuals is the driving political force. Given these dual concerns over the economy and the size of …

When Ignorance Is Not Bliss: In Search Of Racial And Gender Equity In Intercollegiate Athletics, Rodney K. Smith

Missouri Law Review

While racial and gender-based inequities regularly occur throughout our broader culture, this Article focuses on their presence in the context of athletics. Part II of this Article examines possible racial and gender implications associated with the common unwillingness, in the academic context, to take seriously the academic skills or values that may attend participation in athletics. Effective efforts to deal with racial and gender- based inequity in the operation of intercollegiate athletics will have to account for the presence of this broader academic ambivalence toward participation in athletics. Part III, in turn, deals with the existence of racial and gender …
