Program on Gun Control
The Chicago-Kent Law and Humanities Institute, joined by the Student Bar
Association, presented a program on Wednesday, November 10, about the City
of Chicago's lawsuit against various gun manufacturers, dealers and distributors.
The speakers, who outlined their legal theories for an audience of over
100 students, alums and guests, were Matthew Getter of Chicago's Corporation
Counsel's Office, and Anne Kimball, partner in Wildman, Harrold, Allen
and Dixon, for the defendants. A lively question and answer session followed.
Next semester the Law and Humanities Institute will present two additional
programs on guns, one dealing with guns and culture, the other with the
Second Amendment.
Talk on Human Rights in Cub
Mr. Luis Zuniga, an expert on human rights and former political prisoner
from Cuba spoke on Tuesday, November 9 on "Human Rights Abuses and the
U.S. Embargo of Cuba". A discussion followed and was moderated by
Professor Bartram Brown.
Talk on Establishing the Rule of Law in Kosovo
As Kosovo emerges from 50 years of Communism, nearly ten years of repression,
and a devastating military conflict, one of its greatest challenges is
to establish a governing structure based on the rule of law.
A panel included Peter Schuler, who served as a NATO lawyer in Bosnia and
teaches a seminar on international policing, and Chicago-Kent assistant
dean, Charles Rudnick, who just returned from two months in Kosovo, where
he was coordinating a legal reconstruction program for the American Bar
Association.
