Please join L.E.A.R.N. (Leaders in Education Advocacy and Reform Network) and the Federalist Society for a debate on affirmative action: "Race Preference in University Admissions" featuring Professor Lino Graglia (Texas Law) v. Professor Randall Kennedy (Harvard Law) moderated by Professor Amy Wax (Penn Law). 

The U.S. Supreme Court has recently granted certiorari in Fisher v. University of Texas, a case which will allow the Court to review the precedent set in Grutter. Will they uphold? Overturn? Join us as two of the Nation's leading experts on Affirmative Action debate its merits and future. Fisher is gearing up to be one of the most contentious and important cases for the Supreme Court's next term. 

Will Affirmative Action be established as a bedrock American principle or will it become a thing of the past? Come find out on Thursday April 19th at noon in Room S-240B at the University of Pennsylvania Law School. Mission Grill will be catering lunch.
