Summer Law Study Program in Rome

Villanova Law and University of St. Thomas School of Law are pleased to announce the third season of their summer law study program in Rome. Located at John Cabot University in the heart of Rome, the summer program offers comparative law courses and, when possible, courses related to the Catholic mission of the sponsoring schools. Students may earn six credits, while experiencing the many religious, cultural, and historical aspects of Rome. Courses offered in summer 2009 are Comparative Consumer Protection, International Art & Cultural Heritage Law, International Entertainment Law, and Professional Responsibility in the United States and Abroad.

Students in good standing who have completed at least one year of full-time or part-time study at an ABA-accredited law school are welcome. Applications will be accepted through February 16 or until the program is filled.

Dear Reader,

Can I be direct with you?

War abroad. Socialists on the rise. AI upending human life. Endless uproar online. The modern attention economy doesn’t want readers — it wants users enslaved to the tyranny of the present.

First Things is the antidote: literary excellence, timeless truths, and a fixed point of reference in a culture that has lost its bearings.

But we can’t do it without readers like you.

Our goal: Raise $150,000 by November 1 to sustain First Things in the year ahead.


Your gift anchors readers in the permanent things.
