The first-ever constitutional studies symposium will take place at 9:30 a.m. Friday in the Oklahoma Memorial Union’s Associates Room.
The event will feature David Cole, Georgetown law professor and civil liberties attorney, and Arthur Raymond Randolph, U.S. Court of Appeals judge, and will be hosted by the OU Institute for the American Constitutional Heritage, according to a press release.
The theme of the symposium is “Habeas Corpus: Law and Legitimacy in Times of Crisis.”
A dinner and lecture commemorating the symposium will be held at 7 p.m. It will offer students an opportunity to hear more ideas and have a question-and-answer session with Cole and Randolph.
“The discussion between Judge Randolph and professor David Cole will provide insights into the difficult question of how our nation should strike the right balance between national security and personal freedom,” OU President David Boren said.
