Indiana Law students can build their own plan of study by taking classes from a number of different areas, or they can choose an area of focus.
Description This seminar is designed for those who have already taken a course that examines First Amendment doctrine. This seminar will focus on current #hot topics# related to speech in First Amendment law. After a brief introduction to different ways of thinking about the First Amendment, we will examine various attempts to place restrictions on speech in the class room, in the public arena, and in the workplace. The topics we discuss include the following: Racist Speech, Cross Burning, Noose Hanging, Protests at Military Funerals and other protest speech, and Holocaust Denial. While this seminar does not have a prerequisite, students who have taken Constitutional Law II will have an advantage.
