Symposium - The Roberts Court & Equal Protection: Gender, Race, and Class

The American Constitution Society sponsored the Class panel for the South Carolina Law Review's Symposium entitled "The Roberts Court and Equal Protection: Gender, Race, and Class" on February 29, 2008 at the University of South Carolina School of Law. The symposium addressed recent Supreme Court decisions regarding equal protection, including the school desegregation cases and the partial-birth abortion case, and possible areas for new litigation. The presenters focused on the Court’s constitutional philosophy regarding equal protection in the areas of gender, race, and class. The scholarship presented at the symposium will be published in the South Carolina Law Review's symposium issue in the summer of 2008.
