The Law & Society Workshop is an exciting forum for the exchange of ideas between graduate students and established legal scholars. In this workshop, scholars and students combine the study of legal issues with the methodology and perspectives of the social sciences and humanities. Everyone with interests in this area is welcome to participate in the workshop. We meet three times each quarter, and feature guest speakers and student presentations. Among the presenters last year were: Kristin Bumiller (Amherst), Stuart Scheingold (U of Washington), Bruce Carruthers (Northwestern University) and Benjamin Frommer (Northwestern University).

In 2002-2003, the workshop was run by Aaron Beim, a Sociology graduate student. Among the presenters were:

Kristin Bumiller (Amherst), Stuart Scheingold (U of Washington), Bruce Carruthers (NU), and Benjamin Frommer (NU).

In 2003-2004, the workshop was run by Sociology graduate students Heather Schoenfeld and Gabrielle Ferrales.
