Abstract
More specifically, the goals of the course are to: (1) demonstrate the Constitution's central position in the daily concerns of doctors, teachers, parents, students, employers, workers, journalists, public officials and lawyers; (2) explore basic components of the U.S. judicial process, as well as landmark cases and doctrines in U.S. constitutional law; (3) show that the legal process is a complicated one which continues outside legislatures and courtrooms; (4) encourage students to develop more logically coherent positions on fundamental political, legal and ethical problems of our time.
