What has law school to do with Jerusalem? A fair amount, it turns out—at least in possibility. Addressing this somewhat-untouched subject will be an upcoming conference of Touro Law School: “The Place of Religion in the Law School, the University, and the Practice of the Law.” Featured speakers include a federal judge, several university presidents, Fr. Robert John Araujo, and various other academic and legal experts representing both Christian and Jewish perspectives.
The conference will take place the weekend of May 2-4, 2012. Read more about it—or sign up to attend— here .
