The Witherspoon Institute’s William E. and Carol G. Simon Center on Religion and the Constitution, which I have the honor to direct, will again sponsor its annual summer seminar this year, “The Moral Foundations of Law.” Held August 5 to 9, 2013, on the campus of Princeton University, this seminar for law students and graduate students in closely related fields will be under the overall direction of Professor Gerard V. Bradley of Notre Dame, with sessions led by Professor John Finnis of Oxford and Notre Dame, Professor Robert P. George of Princeton, and yours truly. We will once again have a federal judge as a guest lecturer. The application deadline is April 1. You can find more information here .
