In Celebration Of Dissents (And Lengthy Textbooks): How Digital Became Different For The Fourth Amendment And Why It Is Time For A Real Warrant Default, Stephen E. Henderson Jan 2022

In Celebration Of Dissents (And Lengthy Textbooks): How Digital Became Different For The Fourth Amendment And Why It Is Time For A Real Warrant Default, Stephen E. Henderson

Faculty Articles

The last decade has brought tremendous change to the Fourth Amendment, finally resulting in a ‘digital is different’ norm. We stand at an inflection point between a monolithic, analog past and a murky future of yet-unarticulated constitutional digital policing rules. It is a good time, then, to reflect upon how we came to be here and where we ought to go. This Essay first looks back to a monumental, majestic dissent: that of Justice Louis Brandeis in the 1928 decision of Olmstead v. United States. Every American, and especially every law student, ought to know that opinion, and judges …


Beyond The Narrow Harvard Model Of Legal Education: Restoring Legal Education According To The Proposals Of Valentin Tomberg, Brian Mccall Jan 2022

Beyond The Narrow Harvard Model Of Legal Education: Restoring Legal Education According To The Proposals Of Valentin Tomberg, Brian Mccall

Faculty Articles

Professor Mark Jones has argued that legal education needs to be “reliberalized” by returning to a state in which “all law students receive a basic minimum exposure to the general subject areas of legal history, jurisprudence, and comparative law, as well as to the general subject areas of international/trans-national/global legal studies . . . .” Jones’s call to restore the cultural dimensions has recently received an additional source of strength. The recent publication of an English translation of Dr. Valentin Tomberg’s doctoral dissertation for the first time, under the title The Art of the Good: The Regeneration of Fallen Jurisprudence, …

Join With Me, Won't You? Civic Engagement, Covid-19, And The Millennial Generation Of Law Professors, Joseph Schremmer Jan 2020

Join With Me, Won't You? Civic Engagement, Covid-19, And The Millennial Generation Of Law Professors, Joseph Schremmer

Faculty Articles

My goals in this essay are to place legal education’s COVID-19 crisis into this broader context and illuminate the unique opportunity that millennial law professors have to create the conditions for more robust community participation within and outside of our law schools. Part I summarizes the decline of civic engagement and social capital in preceding decades and its consequences for law, public discourse, and quality of life. Part II outlines how this deficit of social capital exacerbates the challenges facing law schools and professors in delivering legal education and constructing community during the coronavirus pandemic. Part III explores the unique …

Code Of Silence, Melissa Mortazavi Jan 2019

Code Of Silence, Melissa Mortazavi

Faculty Articles

To read the literature on professional responsibility is to inhabit a world focused on what is said explicitly about what it means to be a lawyer: the aspirations of the canons, the commands of the Model Rules of Professional Responsibility, the clarifications of court and ethics opinions, and the guidance of the Restatement. However, it often neglects what is not said: spaces where silence reigns. This article takes a different approach; it listens to the taciturn. This article draws insight from when the bar chooses to be silent in the face of widely known violations of the law of lawyering. …


Measuring Law School Clinics, Colleen Shanahan, Jeffrey Selbin, Alyx Mark, Anna Carpenter Jan 2018

Measuring Law School Clinics, Colleen Shanahan, Jeffrey Selbin, Alyx Mark, Anna Carpenter

Faculty Articles

Legal education reformers have long argued that law school clinics address two related needs: first, clinics teach students to be lawyers; and second, clinics serve low-income clients. In clinics, so the argument goes, law students working under the close supervision of faculty members learn the requisite skills to be good practitioners and professionals. In turn, clinical law students serve clients with civil and criminal justice needs that would otherwise go unmet. Though we have these laudable teaching and service goals — and a vast literature describing the role of clinics in both the teaching and service dimensions — we have …
