About the Federalist Society

We are conservative and libertarian students concerned with the current state of our legal system. The Federalist Society was founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be.

Each semester, we work to promote awareness of these principles at UM Law and beyond, through a wide range of activities including speeches and debates, as well as social and networking events. For more information, visit the national Federalist Society website, or contact us.



I know the Federalist Society is a non-partisan organization, but....
For those of you who support President Bush, Books and Books at Lincoln Road on Miami Beach is hosting an event in which you might be interested. On Thursday at 8:00, they are hosting John Podhoretz, author of How Dubya Became a Great President While Driving Liberals Crazy.

In the interest of balance, John Edwards has tentatively scheduled an event on UM's campus sometime in the next week and half, but it is not absolute and there are no details. Have a great week.
