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.

This column appeared in the New York Times on Sunday, March 28 and authored by Tom Campbell, a former Congressman from California. The purpose of the column is to offer advice to President Bush for his reelection campaign. While the Federalist Society is non-partisan, much of what Campbell says appeals to coservative libertarian ideals and Campbell spends a great deal of time discussing how Bush should go about selecting nominees to the Supreme Court.
