The Institute for Ethics in Public Life invites you to join us for "Conversations on the Constitution: Due Process and Equal Protection", in person or on Zoom.

The Constitution is the founding document of US democracy, yet most of us have probably not read it or thought much about what it says or why. Understanding how our government was supposed to function, and why the founders set it up that way is particularly important in the current era due to the battles over government powers playing out in the courts and society.

For the sixth of the "conversations on the Constitution" hosted at the Institute this year we will be discussing due process and equal protection rights, particularly as they pertain to civil rights.

Dr. Raymond V. Carman, Jr., is Assoc. Prof. and Chair of Political Science. He teaches courses on public law, constitutional law, civil rights and liberties, legal research and writing, and judicial politics. He is the author of Making Good Law or Good Policy?: The Causes and Effects of State Supreme Court Judges’ Role Orientations (Springer 2017).
