LAW 615 - Justice and Leadership

Credits: 1

This course helps future lawyers engage the question, “What does it mean to lead and live wisely for a good and just society?” To this end, we will read a selection of timeless and contemporary texts related to the idea of Justice drawn from law, literature, history and philosophy. Based on these texts, we will participate together in a Socratic dialogue meant to challenge assumptions, broaden perspectives and offer intellectual and moral resources for leading in our time. This course will be graded based on a paper.
