Osler's Razor

I'm already amazed at the level of intellectual activity I am finding here at St. Thomas. Many people here are linked into the national debate on important issues, and that's exciting. Here is a snapshot of what is going on this week:

1) On Wednesday, we will have the final round of our moot court tournament, which has been completely student-run and drama-free. The finals will be presided over by two local judges and the Dean of St. Thomas Law.

2) On Thursday, there will be an amazing forum on the Constitutional powers of the President which will include Akhil Amar from Yale, John Yoo from Berkeley, Michael Paulsen and Robert Delahunty from St. Thomas, and others.

3) Finally, on Friday we will have a symposium on sentencing, with federal judges Ralph Erickson, Patrick Schiltz, and myself.

That's a busy (and interesting) week!
