Martha C. Nussbaum Student Roundtables
In the interest of facilitating conversations about important legal issues across viewpoints, the Law School faculty and the Office of the Dean of Students are organizing a series of conversations with students hosted by faculty members and other members of the Law School community. The roundtables are styled after the faculty weekly roundtables, where faculty members gather over lunch to discuss various topics of legal and societal import. Discussions are limited to 8-12 students, and registration is required.
