Law Lunches at Hampshire

The Law Program features a speakers’ forum which brings prominent legal practitioners and scholars from many parts of the world to give talks and lead discussions. In our Law Lunch series, informal gatherings are coordinated by a volunteer group of students and faculty who organize the talks and make tasty meals that help nourish the intellectual exchanges that take place.

Recent Law Lunch topics include the exoneration of death row inmates through DNA testing, alternative juvenile justice models, human rights in Tibet, same-sex marriage and legal equality, reproductive rights of women of color, the establishment of constitutionalism in the new Eastern Europe, and the effects of the War on Terror on U.S. civil liberties. Law lunches take place several times each semester and often feature students presenting their own law-related research and reports on their internships and field experiences. Students are welcome to suggest speakers and topics for Law Lunches.
