Law schools train students to 鈥渢hink like a lawyer鈥濃�攖hat is, to think analytically and incisively about complex legal issues they will confront throughout their careers.  But a law school is also a community in which faculty, staff, and students can apply those same analytical skills to conversations about current events and social issues. At 柑橘直播 Law, we are always looking for opportunities to enrich and strengthen our community through pop-up discussions, guest speakers and extracurricular programming that tackle some of the big issues facing our society.

Members of the 柑橘直播 Law community gathered in October for a series of events exploring the recent 鈥淭ake a Knee鈥� movement in sports. In small group settings, faculty, staff and students came together for substantive and thought-provoking discussion. Thoughtful debate highlighted both differing perspectives and common ground shared among participants.

"At 柑橘直播, we welcome all to share their ideas,鈥� remarked Mark C. Alexander, Arthur J. Kania Dean. 鈥淲e urge those who agree and those who disagree to speak up. We often experience the greatest growth by confronting and responding to the ideas which challenge us the most. While we don鈥檛 always agree, we are stronger because of these conversations.鈥�

The 鈥淭ake a Knee鈥� series kicked off with an introductory session led by Andrew Brandt, Director of the Jeffrey S. Moorad Center for the Study of Sports Law.

Students and faculty members led subsequent discussions on a range of topics, including:

柑橘直播 Law continued its pop-up discussion series on Nov. 16 as Professor Ann Juliano led a discussion about legal issues related to issues of sexual harassment and assault.
