SSM DEBATE IN NYC

[If you go, why not let me know what you thought of it?--Eve]

On October 14 (Thursday of next week), the New York Lawyer's Chapter of the Federalist Society will be hosting a debate at the NYC Cornell Club:

Same-Sex Marriage: Who Decides?

Prof. William N. Eskridge, Jr.
Yale Law School
v.
Prof. Hadley Arkes
Amherst College

Moderated by:Hon. Loretta A. Preska
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of N.Y.

The debate, which will begin at 7:30pm, will center on questions of federalism and institutional competence, but I'm sure the merits of the underlying issue will creep in, especially in the question-and-answer period. And with even mayors engaging in constitutional interpretation, there's a lot to talk about.

The two speakers are two excellent scholars who are also very well-spoken. Entertaining, even. And there's a reception beforehand (at 6:30pm). It'll be a good place to be after work and before your night cap.
