Lecture by Professor Ross Davies-Monday, March 8, 2010

On Monday, March 8th,  the law library will host a lecture by George Mason University Law School’s Professor Ross Davies - “The Last Word,” in room 122  of the Law school at 1 PM.  Professor Davies graduated from the University of Chicago Law School in 1997 where he was Editor-in-Chief of the   University of Chicago Law Review. Since 1997, he has been Editor-in-Chief  of The Green Bag, An Entertaining Journal of Law  (www.greenbag.org)

?Once in a great while a member of the Supreme Court of the United States tries to get the last word. “Last word,” that is, in an official sense – a late-breaking opinion issued by a Justice acting as a Justice. Not informal last words such as anonymous stabs at colleagues via the press, or extemporaneous ejaculations from the bench, or post-retirement changes of heart.
