Slouching Toward Bethlehem With The Ninth Amendment, William W. Van Alstyne
Slouching Toward Bethlehem With The Ninth Amendment, William W. Van Alstyne
Faculty Publications
This review discusses Charles Black’s work “Decision According to Law”, which examines the tendency and the means used by activist judges to provide fair decisions through the use of more flexible principles of Constitutional law. While Black’s writing style is both informative and powerful, his original thesis regarding the Ninth Amendment acting as Congressional endorsement of the courts’ activist role is uncompelling and poorly supported.

Responding to the trend of media rights being subjugated through the legal process, this article examines Justice Stewart's suggestion that the media should be treated with extra deference in First Amendment cases. This examination looks at the sufficiency of the press's claim of judicial harshness, whether the press should be treated differently than other speakers, and also compares press freedom in foreign nations.

Making Sense Of Desegregation And Affirmative Action, William W. Van Alstyne
Making Sense Of Desegregation And Affirmative Action, William W. Van Alstyne
Faculty Publications
This review discusses J. Harvie Wilkinson's From Brown to Bakke and its companion work, Counting by Race: Equality from the Founding Fathers to Bakke and Weber written by Terry Eastland and William J. Bennett. Wilkinson's work is found to maintain a narrow focus on its specific subject of school desegregation and the Supreme Court, but it suffers from over-exaggeration and an abundance of adornment in his writing style. Counting is a provocative piece that asserts the position that the Constitution is still not color-blind, despite what many have proposed, and makes an authoritative argument for such a claim.

Ada Lois: The Sipuel Story, Ruth E. Swain
Women in History & the Law
Ada Lois Sipuel Fisher (1924-1995) applied to the University of Oklahoma College of Law in 1946. Her application was denied, and in Sipuel v. Board of Regents of the University of Oklahoma, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Oklahoma had to provide her with the same opportunities for a legal education as it provided other citizens. Rather than admit her to OU, the state established a law school specifically for her. She refused to attend, and her attorneys argued that the school did not afford the same educational opportunities as OU. The Oklahoma Attorney General conceded, and Fisher was …

Chapters Of The Civil Jury, Doug R. Rendleman
Faculty Publications
The civil jury, though constitutionally protected by the seventh amendment, has remained a controversial institution throughout much of Anglo-American legal history. Our romantic ideals are questioned by critics who view the civil jury as prejudiced and unpredictable; proponents note the sense of fairness and "earthy wisdom" gained by community participation in the legal process. This debate surfaces in the process of accommodation between certain substantive goals of the law and the pre-verdict and post-verdict procedural devices courts have employed to control the jury. In this article, Professor Rendleman examines this conflict in his three "chapters" involving racially motivated discharges of …
