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.

UM Professor Steve Vladeck is quoted several times in this ABA article concerning SCOTUS's denial of cert in the Padilla case. While I disagreed with Professor's Vladeck's position on the Unicco strike, I think it is valuable for UM to have a professor who is recognized in his field. The more faculty UM has who are recognized like this, the more respect UM and our degrees will have.
