Law, Politics, and the Media . . . and pizza!

The American judicial system today operates in a complex environment of legal principle, political pressure and media coverage. LAW 839/PSC 700/NEW 500: Law, Politics and the Media introduces students to the court system and its environment as a single, integrated subject of study. The course is sponsored by the Institute for the Study of the Judiciary, Politics, and the Media and co-taught by faculty drawn from law, journalism and political science. The course also features dynamic lectures by prominent practitioners from the bench, the bar, media, and the world of policymaking.

Interested? Join us on Thursday, October 30, at 12:00pm in Dineen Hall’s MacNaughton Collaboratory for an informational meeting. Law, Politics and the Media faculty will be there to answer any questions you may have about the course, and pizza will be served.
