The Federalist Paper, Summer 2024
This spring has been one to celebrate here at FedSoc national headquarters! We continued our tradition of providing high-quality and balanced programming on the most important legal issues facing our country, and our many chapters have been as active as ever. In March, the Student Division hosted its 43rd annual National Student Symposium with over 700 attendees from law schools across the country. Students listened to panels featuring judges, academics, and practitioners on the theme “Why Separate Powers?” Several notably successful student chapters were recognized with Feddie Awards, and law students from all over the country had the opportunity to meet like-minded students and lawyers from other schools and cities. This year’s Florida Chapters Conference was a great success. It featured a panel with three former U.S. Attorneys General, along with many other excellent panels and events. The Lawyers Division also hosted several other statewide and regional conferences this spring, including in Ohio and Wisconsin. The Practice Groups remain very active, and they hosted the Twelfth Annual Executive Branch Review Conference this year. As always, the conference featured excellent debate and discussion about the role of the executive branch in important legal and policy issues such as immigration, the environment, and religious liberty. The Practice Groups also revived our long-standing DC Lunch tradition, now held at Carmine’s Italian Restaurant. All of these things and so much more are featured in this issue of the Federalist Paper, and we hope you enjoy learning what we’re up to here at FedSoc!
