Our 2023 programming theme is The Supreme Court: Final? Infallible? Future? We will be convening conversation on the decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court, how they inform our perspectives on and understanding of the law and our judicial system, the role of external forces, such as public opinion, and whether and what reforms should be considered.
