EYE ON THEFutureThe Gift-seekerBrad Bodager Marks One Yearas the Law School’s Chief Fund Raiser“With a 100-plus year history and morethan 10,000 alumni located across the countryand around the world, the law school offersa community of excellence and focus on skillsand service that prepares our graduatesto make a difference.”When Brad Bodager accepted hisappointment as executive directorof the Columbus School ofLaw’s Office of Development and AlumniRelations, the operation he chose to lead littleresembled those of his past employers.For one thing, Bodager’s many yearsof experience in fund raising, developmentand strategic planning had been carriedout in all areas of institutionaladvancement. Most recently, he hadserved as vice president for advancement forPacific Research Institute in San Francisco,where he oversaw a comprehensive corporateand foundation program that raised inexcess of $3 million annually. Prior to that, hespent five years as assistant vice presidentfor development and external relations forClaremont McKenna College in California,and before that, he was with DukeUniversity School of Law for five years asdirector of campaign leadership gifts.Bodager’s career had provided anumber of highly successful ‘best practice’models for how to design and executedevelopment programs that yieldsustainable results.A fondness for Washington, D.C.,where he had earned his own LL.M.from the Georgetown Law Center,coupled with his sense that the lawschool’s alumni and development programwas a gem in the rough, wereamong the reasons Bodager movedback to the East Coast to begin atCatholic University in January 2007.One successful year later, Bodagerspoke with CUA Lawyer to assess wherethings now stand.CL: YOU’VE WORKED IN THE DEVELOPMENTPROGRAMS FOR DUKE’S LAW SCHOOL, AS WELLAS AT OTHER INSTITUTIONS WITH MORERESOURCES — SUCH AS FACULTY AND SCHOL-ARSHIP ENDOWMENT MONEY — THANCATHOLIC UNIVERSITY’S LAW SCHOOL HAS. SO,WHAT ATTRACTED YOU TO THIS POSITION IN THEFIRST PLACE?BB: My interest in legal education hascontinued since my own legal studiesand as a member of the ABA and its varioussections during this time. As a memberof its section on legal education andadmission to the bar, I have developed anappreciation of the importance of legaleducation to our society and the roleplayed by national law schools such asthe Columbus School of Law. With a 100-plus year history and more than 10,000alumni located across the country andaround the world, the law school offers acommunity of excellence and focus onskills and service that prepares our graduatesto make a difference.CL: YOU’VE SPENT A GREAT DEAL OF YOURTIME HERE SO FAR POSITIONING THE LAWSCHOOL’S ALUMNI OUTREACH AND DEVELOP-MENT OPERATION A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY THANHAS BEEN DONE IN THE PAST. WHEN YOU FIRSTARRIVED, WHAT STRUCK YOU AS A HIGH PRIORITYRIGHT AWAY?4CUALAWYER /Fall–Winter 2007

BB: I think we needed to better communicateto graduates just what goeson in this building. Through its intensivelyengaged and substantive legalinstruction and programming, the lawschool offers a tremendous resourcenot only to its current students, butalso to its alumni. Our distinguishedprogramming has remarkable returnfor our students and alumni. By disseminatingword of the outstandingsymposia, conferences, speakers andother events that we host to ouralumni, friends and other members ofthe legal academy and professionthrough our Web page and theInternet, we will continue to demonstratethe excellence of our facultyand the positive trajectory of ourwonderful students and alumni.CL: BY CHANGING ITS COMPOSITION WITHNEW MEMBERS AND CREATING NEW SERV-ICE COMMITTEES, WHAT ARE YOUR HOPESFOR HOW THE BOARD OF VISITORS WILLFUNCTION FROM NOW ON?BB: The Board of Visitor membersserve as influential advisers to thedean and her staff by sharing theirknowledge of the legal professionand its challenges. By demonstratingtheir support of the law school in thisway, as well as by partnering with thedean and her staff, we will be able toachieve greater recognition of thebest aspects of this law school. Myhope is that over time, this willengage a greater number of alumniand friends to make an investment init, through their interest, time andfinancial support.CL: YOU HAVE A UNIQUE VANTAGE POINTFROM WHICH TO ASSESS THE LAWSCHOOL’S STRENGTHS AND CHALLENGES ONA VARIETY OF FRONTS. WHAT ARE SOME OFTHE COLUMBUS SCHOOL OF LAW’SUNDER-APPRECIATED STRENGTHS?BB: The greatest strength of this lawschool is its truly distinguished faculty.This core group is supported by adedicated staff and led by a dynamicand visionary dean in Veryl Miles.The faculty composes a community.They are supportive and in true partnershipwith all of our students, andthe results areextremely positive.Just look at ouremployment figuresfor 2007: Nine monthsafter graduation, morethan 96 percent of ourstudents had legalpositions. More than20 accepted federalcourt clerkships over"The greatest strength ofthis law school is its trulydistinguished faculty."the same time period. We have agreat story to tell. We must work toget that news out effectively, butalso be forthright about the challengesposed by rising tuition costsand the need for more donor supportfor scholarship and faculty to remaincompetitive in a dynamic legal educationenvironment.CL: FIVE YEARS FROM NOW, WHAT WILL ASUCCESSFUL ALUMNI AND DEVELOPMENTEFFORT LOOK LIKE?BB: One calculus of success wouldbe a significant increase in annualfinancial support from our alumni.The degree of alumni support ismeasured by annual donations of anysize. This will be our focus as we promotethe annual fund through dollarfor-dollarchallenges, named scholarshipsand designation options forannual giving. The amount of corporateand foundation grant fund raisingis often predicated upon what percentageof your alumni supports you.This law school community warrantsthe support of all of its 10,000 alumnion an annual basis. The ColumbusSchool of Law is a special place, andI predict that its alumni communitywill step up over the coming fiveyears to make this a reality.One year into his tenure as director of the lawschool’s development and alumni outreach programs,Brad Bodager is more convinced than ever that “Thelaw school community warrants the support of all ofits 10,000 alumni on an annual basis.”Fall–Winter 2007 / C UALAWYER 5

T H E C A S E B O O K C O M E S A L I V EAdjunct Professors Share Their‘Intellectual Property’with Fortunate CUA StudentsBy Tom HaederleAP Photo/Paul SakumaAP Photo/Damian Dovarganes, filePreparing for an exciting career ahead: IP instructors areequipping CUA students to be future players in the kind of hightechlegal actions that grab national headlines, such as therecently settled lawsuit brought by Verizon Communicationsagainst Vonage Holdings Corp, a provider of Internet telephoneservices. The hotly contested patent dispute was settled forVerizon to the tune of $120 million. Does Paris Hilton own therights to “That’s hot,” her signature line from “The Simple Life”?She has sued Hallmark over its card that spoofs the phrase. Thatcase and others such as Viacom, Inc.’s against YouTube for copyrightinfringement, underscore the red hot market for skilledIP lawyers.Some things just can’t be downloaded on YouTube. As popular as the “broadcast yourself”Internet site is to legions of Web surfers, novideo format can hope to convey the experience, wisdom and passionfor teaching that Columbus School of Law students enjoy every day,courtesy of the dedication of some of the finest practitioners of intellectualproperty law in the nation.Catholic University’s law school is blessed with the teachingtalents of more than 80 adjunct professors, all of them experts in theirchosen field of law. The 10 or so men and women who offer instructionin IP law are an especially accomplished cohort of professionalsand emblematic of the quality of lecturer that the school attracts.6CUALAWYER /Fall–Winter 2007

T H E C A S E B O O K C O M E S A L I V EIntellectual property law is one of the hottest branches ofjurisprudence around, touching as it does the lives of mostAmericans. It draws the talents and attention of some promisinglaw students, who are intrigued by a practice area in which onemight represent anyone from the inventors of the counter-flowinsect trap to the author of a nationally syndicated comic strip.“IP deals with cutting edge and real-life issues.Particularly copyright and trademark, where you can often seethe results of your work in the media, or on store shelves,” saysGeorge Borababy, a partner at Patton Boggs who teaches copyrightlaw at CUA. “Also, just about every business, large andsmall, has IP issues, from computer software, to choosing thename of the business, to putting out copyrightable materials, towanting to use others’ materials.”It’s a field ablaze with career possibilities at the moment.Copyright law is struggling to keep up with technology because“IP deals with cutting edge and real-lifeissues. Particularly copyright and trademark,where you can often see the results of yourwork in the media, or on store shelves,” saysGeorge Borababy.Fischer and Winston to offer students additional perspectivesabout the practice of IP law. They encourage students to consideraspects of it that the busy practitioner may rarely have time tothink about. On March 29, 2007, for example, the two professorsorganized a daylong symposium on “Ethical Issues in PatentLaw,” a discussion that explored the nuances of the ethical burdenparticular to the practice of patent law. The keynote speakerwas the Hon. Paul Michel, chief judge of the U.S. CircuitCourt of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.“There is such a huge demand for lawyers who know theconcepts of how to protect and exploit intellectual property, particularlyon the patent and copyright areas of the practice,”AP Photo/pdf image provided by Brent H BlakelyAP Photo/Cameron BlochSusanna FischerBeth Winstonthe ubiquity of the Internet has turned everythingon its head. File sharing, You Tube andsimilar services are leaving copyright law inthe dust. At the same time, trademarks arebeing used and exploited in ways that the lawhas not envisioned.The demand for expertise in IP law issuch that the contributions of the adjunct lecturersat CUA supplement those of the fulltimefaculty, which employs two professors —Susanna Fischer and Beth Winston — whoteach the subject extensively.The luxury of full time classroominstruction has also permitted Professorsobserves Kevin Kramer, 1990, a partner at Pillsbury WinthropShaw Pittman LLP, who will teach patent enforcement at CUA inthe spring of 2008. “As a practical matter, if you are going to spendthe money for a law school education, you should consider practicingin a field where there is demand for your services.”Beyond the promise of a handsome living, the next generationof IP attorneys “will also have the opportunity to shape wherethe law goes on these issues, as they understand the technology anduse these vehicles far more than many of us of an older generation,”concurs Borababy.Given the outlook at the moment, CUA law students arefortunate indeed to be learning from an exceptionally talented andrespected group of instructors. They practice at some of the bestknownfirms in America, including four from Patton Boggs alone.Fall–Winter 2007 / C UALAWYER 7

McDowell, thegroup’s daylong discussion focused on how government andregulatory bodies should encourage the astonishing growth ofwireless broadband, heir apparent as the information deliverysystem of the future.What prompted 24 extraordinarily powerful and busy professionalsto set aside an entire day to voluntarily participatein a discussion not organized by lobbyists or Capitol Hill kingpins,but by law students? “What attracted influentialpresenters to our symposium was rooted in the evolution andmaturity of our programs, alumni, students and faculty,” notesProfessor David Irwin, director of the Institute forCommunications Law Studies and a deeply involved facultyadviser for the program. “Our graduates have gained broad andfavorable recognition at the FCC, in government, at law firms,in industry and elsewhere.”Professor Irwin’s point can hardly be argued. The‘Content Abundance’ discussion was a joint effort by CommLawConspectus: Journal of Communications Law & Policy and theInstitute for Communications Law Studies, widely recognizedas one of the nation’s premier and best-connected communicationslaw programs. For more than 25 years, the institute haspatiently seeded the ranks of government, private firms and thecorporate world with CUA law graduates, some of the mostgifted communications attorneys at practice anywhere today.Leveraging those alumni connections, and boosted by thehelpful personal appeals of former FCC commissioner andCUA law alumna Kathleen Q. Abernathy, 1983, students wereable to assemble a roster of panelists that resembled a “Who’sWho” of the modern communications industry.Another powerful draw is the opportunity to devote theappropriate time and attention to explore complex subjectsin depth. An erudite discussion of an hour or two is a formatthat most experts find infinitely more satisfying than beingasked to reduce their knowledge to an eight-second televisionsound bite.Not as Easy as it LooksThe scope and success of ‘Content Abundance’ and otherstudent-driven symposia is a team effort, of course. Studentsmay initially conceive of a topic and identify the best potentialspeakers on the subject, but it ultimately takes a coordinatedeffort among faculty advisers, staff and law school administrationto achieve an academic production that meets expectations.The majority of law school events involve rooms to book, classesto juggle, receptions to arrange, written materials to produceand publicity to manage well in advance.“Equally important is making sure that you have adequatefunding for an event. Sometimes this entails seeking fundingfrom outside the law school, from places such as firms, local barassociations and alumni,” says Amanda West, 2008, who establishedCUA as the first host of what has become an annualwomen’s networking tea. Open to all women who attend D.C.-area law schools, the tea is meant to play the role for youngThe “Women in the Law: D.C. Networking Tea” attractedhundreds of area law students in October 2006. Thenetworking event is the creation of CUA’s Women’s LawCaucus and now rotates annually among local law schools.14CUALAWYER /Fall–Winter 2007

Erica White, 2008, is former presidentof the Black Law Student Association and did much of thelogistical heavy lifting for a fascinating symposium “Race andCriminal Justice: The Impact of Federal SentencingGuidelines,” that examined the role of race in perpetuatinginequality within the criminal justice system.“One of the biggest hurdles is time management. When astudent begins to plan an event, we often forget that we are studentsand throw ourselves into making it a great event,” saysWhite. “However, a successful event casts a favorable light onthe school, and I always want the school to be placed in the bestlight possible.”Despite the impressive caliber of speakers and topics thatmarks most CUA symposia, it is a fact that law students are anextraordinarily busy group of young people who juggle manycompeting demands upon their time. For any event within thebuilding, the wild card question is always the most basic: Howmany people will attend?There is no surefire formula for a big audience turnout.That can depend on factors such as the time of day, or whenduring the academic calendar a public event is scheduled.Setting aside such obvious strategies as not scheduling a majorsymposium during finals week, students seem most inclined tofill the seats for discussions that, in the words of Erica White,“bring the casebook to life.”“Learning that only comes from law school casebookslacks the real world application that speakers bring,” observesWhite. “Students want to see how the law they learn about inclass affects not only the defendant, but also the public, andhow judges have to balance those interests. This experiencecannot be captured by a casebook and has the most impactwhen delivered by someone who has first-hand knowledgeabout the law.”Over the past several years, dozens of student-organizedlectures, panels and symposia have offered their audiences a fardeeper understanding of some of the major issues of our day.Probing for the larger truths behind the headlines, thesesymposia have illuminated subjects that many Americans finddense and confusing. In doing so, the law school’sstudent organizations have made commendable contributionsto public understanding.Fall–Winter 2007 / C UALAWYER 15

Now, do youunderstand why we are nervous?”— Dr. Edmund Tramont, Division of Clinical Research,National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, NIH.1. AIDS and Africa: U.S. Policy ResponsesOctober 30, 2007 — Africa is home to 64 percent of all ofthe world’s reported cases of HIV and AIDS. Western mediaoften paint a bleak picture of the prospects for improvementamong so many poor nations. Three of America’s leaders inthe fight against the spread of the virus responded to an invitationfrom the law school’s Journal of Contemporary HealthLaw and Policy and the Center for International SocialDevelopment to offer a more nuanced assessment of a veryserious problem. Among the progress noted was today’ssimplified drug regimen. Not so long ago, HIV patients wereforced to consume up to 30 pills each day as part of the complicateddrug regimen developed against the virus. Today,improvements have brought the pill total down to one.2. The Prospects for Peace in SudanOctober 15, 2007 — Despite Western attention, effort andpeacekeeping troops, peace in Sudan has proven elusive.Some options to end the bloodshed were laid out by AndrewNatsios, the U.S. Special Envoy to Sudan. Appointed byPresident Bush in 2006 to manage the U.S. effort to end thelethal fighting, Ambassador Natsios spoke at CUA law at theinvitation of the Military and National Security Law StudentsAssociation. His address was the first in the organization’snew national security law speaker series. Co-sponsors ofthe talk included the Center for International SocialDevelopment and the International Center for Civil SocietyLaw. The ambassador’s 40-minute analysis of the situationdrew media coverage from C-SPAN, the Voice of America,the Catholic Standard and the New Republic magazine.3. Trade and Politics: Effective Export Controlsand National Security DebateApril 17, 2007 — Trade policy can decide presidentialelections, set the price of goods and services and chart anation’s economic future. Whether American trade policymeets the twin goals of creating wealth and protectingnational security was the subject of an afternoon conferencesponsored by the International Law Society and theComparative and International Law Institute. Among thetopics discussed were doing business in China, technologytransfer, and whether American goals for national security,foreign policy, and economic interests can be achievedsimultaneously.4. Public Health Emergencies: Impacts on LegalPolicy and PracticeMarch 22, 2007 — Could today’s virus H5N1 — betterknown as the Avian Flu — mirror the 1918 outbreak ofSpanish Flu that raced around the world and ultimatelywiped out an estimated 50 million people? Health professionalscannot say for sure whether we are on the verge ofa repeat, but they do know bird migratory patterns makethe wider spread of the avian flu virus in North Americainevitable, and that legal and health professionals had betterprepare for it. The lecture from NIH’s Dr. EdmundTramont was sponsored by CUA’s Journal of ContemporaryHealth Law and Policy. The topic was chosen, according tojournal editor, because “both legal and public health practitionersoperate today without a clearly defined set of principlesthat they can reliably and efficiently apply towardallocating resources.Fall–Winter 2007 / CUALAWYER17

Content Abundance in a Multimedia World:Challenges and Opportunities for Multi-PlatformContent Delivery and RegulationMarch 15, 2007 — If you think that MP3 files or movies thatare downloadable to cell phones are cool right now, youhaven’t seen anything yet. Wireless communication technologiesare enjoying astonishing growth in the UnitedStates, and the majority of them are aimed at mobile devicessuch as phones, Blackberries and other tools. Making surethat regulators keep up with swiftly evolving technologieswas a chief focus of a daylong symposium sponsored byCommLaw Conspectus: Journal of Communications Law &Policy and CUA’s Institute for Communications Law Studies,along with the Federal Communications Bar Association.6. Race and Criminal Justice: The Impact ofFederal Sentencing GuidelinesFebruary 20, 2007 — The overhaul of criminal sentencingguidelines approved by Congress in the mid-1980s has hadthe unintended effect of handcuffing our system of justicetoday by diminishing the power of judges and juries to weighcircumstances and consider extenuating facts. That was thecommon view of the experts invited by CUA’s Black LawStudents Association to assess how such guidelines translateinto served terms of incarceration. Although Congresshas nominally lifted the restrictions of the sentencing guidelinesin recent years, critics say little has actually changed fordefendants. The BLSA students timed the panel discussionto coincide with the same-day argument of two cases beforethe Supreme Court that attempted to clarify its standard ofwhat makes a sentence “reasonable.”7. Women in the Law: D.C. Networking TeaOctober, 2006 — In a first-of-its-kind gathering, hundreds ofwomen law students from all nine of the Washington, D.C.-area law schools gathered at CUA to meet and greet, strikeup new friendships, exchange cards and phone numbersand begin to build the kind of career-sustaining relationshipsthat male attorneys have taken for granted for decades. Thebrainchild of The Catholic University of America’s Women’sLaw Caucus and its president Amanda West, the networkingtea will rotate among area law schools in the years tocome. It was noted that although women are more heavilyrepresented in the ranks of the legal profession than everbefore, they still account for less than one-third of America’sone million attorneys.8. Immigration Appeals and Judicial ReviewJanuary 30, 2006 — Do non-citizens receive fair hearingsbefore the immigration courts and the Board of ImmigrationAppeals? Are the courts of appeals the best forum for BIAappeals, and, if so, how can they handle the drasticallyincreased caseload? With immigration a hot-button issue inAmerican politics today, there was no better time to examinesuch questions than at the all-day symposium sponsored bythe Catholic University Law Review. Students invited leadingimmigration experts from government, the judiciary, academiaand advocacy groups to analyze the implications of importantprocedural changes, adopted 1999 to 2002, to the way immigrationcases are handled by the United States.Fall–Winter 2007 / C UALAWYER19

R S V P : W I L L A T T E N DMore on the WayThe law school’s marquee symposia continue to grow invision and ambition.• As they have so often in the past, the students of CommLawConspectus: Journal of Communications Law & Policy andCUA’s Institute for Communications Law Studies are againleading the way. On March 13, 2008, the group will producea high-powered symposium titled “The 2008 Election: TheRole and Influence of 21st Century Media.”“This year’s spring symposium will also be great as a casestudy of engaged students, working with faculty support, tochoose a topic and attract astonishing speakers,” saysProfessor Irwin, director of the institute.• On Feb. 22, 2008, the Catholic University Law Review willpresent “A Tribute to Justice Sandra Day O’Connor:Reflecting on Justice O’Connor’s Jurisprudence Relating toRace and Education.” The panel of presenters is still a workin progress, but Editor-in-Chief Maureen Smith expectsthat the event will not only publicize the law school, but alsoattract positive attention from practitioners, law professors,and law students in the area.“Given the two Supreme Court cases decided last term thatdealt with the role of race in education, this topic is timely, controversialand likely to ignite a wealth of intellectual discussion,”says Smith.Catholic University’s law students show no sign of scalingback their ambitious endeavors. They have always understood, ashave their faculty advisers, that a legal education worthy of thename encompasses the real world beyond textbooks and classroomwalls.“Every year seems uniquely challenging,” sums up ProfessorIrwin. “It takes collective brain-power to tailor a topic that hasbroad appeal — a topic that will draw moderators, panelists andparticipants, and which will attract an audience.”Students are up for the challenge. Many times, they seem topick up the ball and run with it on their own. They will continueto sweep their intellectual spotlight over topics that affect usall, and offer a CUA law platform to speakers that have somethingvaluable to contribute.Thoughtfulness, relevance and access to society’s leaders havebecome trademarks for the law school’s speaking programs. Aninvitation to visit and participate carries an extra cachet when it isstamped: From the Students of the Columbus School of Law.Case Study: Scott Rembrandt Wallops a DoubleScott Rembrandt, 4E, has a knack for packingthem in. He was the primary studentorganizer for two of the most successful2007 law school symposia, both dealingwith Africa.An experienced planner, Rembrandtorganizes up to 20 university seminarsaround the country each year as directorfor research and academic affairs at a thinktank called the Korea Economic Institute.His event projects at CUA law wereheld barely two weeks apart. One dealtwith the spread of the HIV virus acrossthe African continent and the other withways to achieve peace in Sudan.Rembrandt spent countless hoursfinessing the myriad details that attendedeach discussion. What should theintroductory remarks say? Which mediashould be invited? What kind of technicalsupport was needed for visuals? Hishard work and careful attention to theminutiae of details paid off. Both of thetalks drew a healthy audience of CUAstudents and faculty and garnered favorablemedia coverage as well.Rembrandt began laying the groundworkfor the symposia many monthsbefore. In February 2007, he approachedthe law school administration with a proposal.Why not create a National SecurityLaw Speakers Series featuring prominentU.S. government officials, with the Militaryand National Security Law StudentsAssociation to serve as main sponsor ofthe twice-per-semester lectures.After giving the proposal seriousconsideration, law school administratorstested the idea by approving the invitationof Daniel Glaser, a deputy assistantfrom the Treasury Department, to comeand speak about ways to cut off terroristfinancing. Glaser’s talk generated a greatdeal of interest. Convinced of its appeal,the university now supports the fullfledgedspeaker series.LessonsRembrandt’s experiences so far convincehim that “officials jump at the chanceto come to Catholic’s law school.”ItsWashington location makes it an attractiveand convenient destination for top governmentofficials and other prominent speakers.Perhaps surprisingly, top experts insubjects other than law are rarely invited tolaw schools. More typically, they receivespeaking opportunities from programs ininternational relations,political science or publicpolicy.“The fact that studentorganizations areinviting them, asopposed to faculty membersor administrationofficials, only heightensthe interest of speakersin coming,” he says. Scott RembrandtBy all accounts, theColumbus School of Law’s academicguests are delighted that they said yes tothe opportunity to speak. They have indicatedgreat satisfaction to program sponsorswith the audience size, the intelligenceof the questions they receive andthe enthusiasm of the students during theprograms and receptions afterward.“I’m optimistic that everyone we’veinvited thus far would come back toCatholic law,” says Rembrandt. “We areall emissaries of the school. High-profileevents are first and foremost meant toshowcase the quality of the law school,its faculty and most importantly, its studentbody to the larger policy-makingcommunity in Washington.”20CUALAWYER /Fall–Winter 2007

I N N O V A T I O N I N L E G A L E D U C A T I O NCUA Academic InitiativesMap New LegalTerrainPrecedentImagezoo/Images.com/Getty ImagesThere is a well established view of law thatholds it as something nearly organic; aliving, growing body of jurisprudence thatcontinually adapts to the human condition as it strives to meetthe social and intellectual needs of the populace it serves.That view of the law, as something not safely mappedand settled but in need of further bold exploration by disciplinedintellects, is one that the Columbus School of Law hastraditionally encouraged and, more important, supported,often with institutional and/or financial backing.A number of CUA law faculty members have launchedunusual initiatives within the past several years that provideforums for some of the most important and cutting-edgelegal research and discussion going on anywhere in academia.Professors William Wagner, Karla Simon and Marshall Bregerhave stepped off of the well-worn trail of predictable legalscholarship to bushwhack new academic paths. Enjoying theorganizational support of the Columbus School of Law, withmajor funding often coming via grants from outside sources,these ongoing legal and academic initiatives invite studentsand professionals alike to consider the law — and all of itspossibilities for the betterment of humankind — in a newand exciting light.22CUALAWYER /Fall–Winter 2007

I N N O V A T I O N I N L E G A L E D U C A T I O NNot RequiredBy Tom HaederleThe Center for Law, Philosophyand CultureCurrent lectures with such titles as “God in an EvolutionaryWorld,” “Orestes Brownson’s The American Republic: A EuropeanPoint of View,” or “On the Question of Nomos, Prayer, andLove: An Anti-Antinomean Approach” might sound like an elegantevening lecture series sponsored by the Smithsonian.This nourishing intellectual buffet, however, is regular fareat Catholic University’s law school, whose students are treated tothese and similar programs at least once each semester.Under its director, Professor William J. Wagner, the Centerfor Law, Philosophy and Culture “exists to promote inquiry intothe role of law in relation to culture and culture’s orientation tothe human good.” In theoretical terms, the speakers and programsoffered by the center aim to contribute to the academicfields of jurisprudence, the philosophy of law and Christian politicaland social ethics. At the same time, the initiative seeks to fosterthe renewal and transformation of contemporary culturethrough law and law reform. The center has sponsored symposiaand conferences on such topics as the death penalty, stem cellresearch, American exceptionalism and the role of religion indemocratic debate.The work begins, in the view of Professor Wagner, with theunderstanding that the laws of any society can be interpreted ascultural phenomena. Church teaching asserts that by studyingthe cultural form of laws and legal institutions, one learns moreabout a culture’s relation to basic human values. Further, by critiquingculture in relation to those values, one can contribute toits renewal and transformation. In pursuit of its goals, the centercoordinates academic conversation between legal scholars andscholars in such adjunct disciplines as philosophy, theology, history,literature, the arts and politics. Originally the theoreticalbranch of the law school’s 25-year-old Law and ReligionProgram, the Center for Law, Philosophy and Culture wasalready clearing its own intellectual path long before it wasformally recognized in 2002 and received its separate standingThe student executive board for the Journal of Law, Philosophyand Culture at the reception honoring its inaugural issue.

As farback as 1999, Professor Wagner was demonstrating his professionaland academic interest in such topics as “Death, Dying andBurial: Approaches in Rabbinical and Canonical Law andPractice,” and “The Value of Free Speech and its ReasonedLimits in the Constitutional Systems of the United States ofAmerica and the Federal Republic of Germany.”Today, the Center for Law, Philosophy and Culture is a recognizedcenter of excellence by The Catholic University ofAmerica. In 2007, it launched the Journal of Law, Philosophy andCulture, a publication that, in the words of faculty editor Wagner,“is premised on the idea that the study of law and legal institutionscan reveal underlying truths about human nature and conduct,and contribute to the transformation and renewal of bothlaw and culture.” The inaugural issue published works fromsome of the nation’s best-known scholars in jurisprudence,Fall–Winter 2007 / C UALAWYER 23

I N N O V A T I O N I N L E G A L E D U C A T I O Nincluding Jeremy Waldron, E.J. Dionne Jr., John Haldane andHis Eminence Cardinal Avery Dulles, S.J. The new journal madean instant impression. Professor Patrick M. Brennan, the John F.Scarpa Chair in Catholic Legal Studies at Villanova University,wrote that “today’s post brought me the inaugural installment ofthe Journal of Law, Philosophy and Culture, and it looks to besuperb. I predict great success for the journal.”The center continues to attract its own band of loyal studentsevery year and is a magnet for those whose concept of lawspills over the traditional boundaries. The scope and richness ofits offerings continues unabated.From March 27 to 30, 2008, the center will sponsor a majorconference on natural law titled “A Common Morality for theGlobal Age: In Gratitude for What We Are Given.” The eventwill bring in 22 speakers who constitute a “who’s who” of leadingphilosophers, political scientists and theologians from around theworld. The assembled scholars will examine whether “humanbeings can yet fashion a common morality adequate to the pressingproblems of the contemporary world, if they only are able torecapture an original attitude of acknowledgement, historicallygrounding the world’s great cultures.”The subject is one that was requested by His Holiness PopeBenedict XVI prior to his papacy, when he was the prefect of theCongregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. The timing of theconference is a source of justifiable pride for the center. Less thanthree weeks after it concludes, Pope Benedict will visit the campusof Catholic University for the first time — and know that hislongstanding wish for examination of “A Common Morality forthe Global Age … ” has been fulfilled, courtesy of the Center forLaw, Philosophy and Culture.The Center for InternationalSocial DevelopmentRefugees are on the move throughout the world seekingsafety, food, shelter and the promise of a better life elsewhere.The issue deeply affects dozens of nations and has establisheditself as a dominant concern among voters in the United States.What rights must be accorded the refugee, regardless of citizenshipor legal status?The question was tackled head-on on Oct. 29, 2007, by MitziSchroeder, advocacy director for Jesuit Refugee Services USA,who came to CUA to discuss emerging issues concerning refugees.Schroeder’s subject was a natural fit for The Center forInternational Social Development, which co-sponsored herappearance. The talk, designed among other purposes toenhance American understanding of the complexities that drivethe migration decisions of refugees, was a prime example of thekind of public education and social consciousness-raising that theCISD excels in.Through periodic public events andworkshops, a graduate certificateprogram, and collaborative research,the center instills a broader understandingof development issues as they unfoldin societies around the world.An interdisciplinary program of research, teaching, serviceand public education that is co-directed by law school ProfessorKarla Simon (along with Fred Ahearn, Ph.D., of the NationalCatholic School of Social Service), the CISD is not solely acreation of the law school. Rather, it draws upon the resources of21 faculty members from six of the schools at CatholicUniversity. Their joint focus is the promotion of peaceful internationaldevelopment, guided by the principles of justice andrespect for the totality of the human person.The CISD’s mission is to “develop an interdisciplinarygroup of scholars who will engage in research about the seriousdevelopment problems of our time, paying special attention totheir religious and ethical dimensions.” Through periodic publicevents and workshops, a graduate certificate program, and collaborativeresearch, the center instills a broader understanding ofdevelopment issues as they unfold in societies around the world.It considers such issues as human rights, forced migration,citizen participation in a civil society, political democratization,environmental policy and other issues. The center also seeks toconnect motivated students and faculty to participate in socialdevelopment projects around the world.This line of work is a familiar one for Professor Simon, whohas devoted much of her career to social development causesand projects around the globe. She has written and taught extensivelyabout issues regarding the legal environment for civilsociety organizations in emerging democracies and transitioncountries, and is currently completing a teaching book oncomparative civil society law with Professor Leon Irish.Professor Simon has also co-founded the InternationalCenter for Civil Society Law, an organization that roughly parallelsthe CISD but that has a distinctly different focus: it seeksto protect human freedoms everywhere by improving the lawsthat affect the freedoms of belief, expression, association, informationand participation.Spreading the gospel of civil society development fromwithin the safe borders of the United States is one thing.However, taking the message on the road to societies not historicallyreceptive is a riskier move. Nonetheless, ProfessorSimon took a semester’s academic leave during the fall of 2006to teach in Beijing, China, in a program on comparative civilsociety law at Peking University Law School.“I really enjoyed teaching the Chinese students and learningmore about their culture. I think the experience was asrewarding for me as it was for them,” she said.24CUALAWYER /Fall–Winter 2007

Just forgood measure, she is learning Chinese.Initiative for Portuguese-American Legal DialogueA debate has simmered in recent years over whether it is properfor justices of the U.S. Supreme Court to study foreign bodiesof jurisprudence for guidance as they reach their decisions. Eventhe justices themselves appear to lack consensus about the practice.In a way, the debate is a moot one for the Columbus Schoolof Law, which already has a history of successful partnership andinteraction with international bodies of law, especially as understoodthrough the academic programs of sister law schools inother countries.One of the best examples is the Initiative for Portuguese-American Legal Dialogue, a harmonious educational duetbetween the law school faculties of the University of Lisbon andThe Catholic University of America. Begun in November 2000,when CUA hosted the first joint conference, gatherings were subsequentlyheld in Lisbon in 2003, 2004 and 2006, and inWashington, D.C. in 2005.The annual seminars were founded on the simple premisethat American and Portuguese law professors had a great deal tolearn from each other. Past programs have included Portugueseand American legal issues related to administrative law, civil law,civil procedure, commercial law, the conflict of laws, constitutionallaw, cyber law, electronic surveillance, election law, family law,federalism and religious freedom.The initiative is intended to foster further exchanges betweenthe two faculties, including conferences, scholars-in-residence andshort courses of study. More than a dozen members of CatholicUniversity’s law faculty have participated in the annualexchange.It is enthusiastically supported by the Portuguese governmentand its embassy in Washington.In 2004, the conference focused on European Union issuesas they affect Portugal. The papers presented that year have nowbeen edited and published in book form as Occasional Papers inComparative Law: European Union Issues from a PortuguesePerspective (The Catholic University of America, ColumbusSchool of Law, 2007).There are considerable costs associated with running theinternational conferences, not the least of which is flying facultymembers back and forth across the Atlantic. Much of the necessaryfund raising has been ably managed by Professor MarshallBreger, whose track record of success recently resulted in a generousgrant from the Portuguese-American Legal Foundation,as well as from other donors.The program took a major step forward in 2007 and nowbenefits from the oversight of an advisory council. The group ischaired by His Excellency João de Vallera, Portugal’s ambassadorto the United States. Other members include the Hon.Richard J. Leon, U.S. district judge for the District ofColumbia; the Hon. Peter Messitte, U.S. district judge for theDistrict of Maryland; the Hon. Phillip Rapoza, chief justice,Massachusetts Appeals Court; Douglas M. Bregman, Bregman,Berbert, Schwartz and Gilday, Rockville, Md; Amauri G. Costa,Bracewell & Giuliani, Washington, D.C.; Phillip L. Feliciano,The Phillip L. Feliciano Law Firm; Kensington, Md; and Dr.Larry W. Thomas, The Thomas Law Firm, Washington, D.C.The Initiative for Portuguese-American Legal Dialogueenjoys strong new financial and institutional backing. It hassecured the commitment of a distinguished group of advisersand earned the enthusiastic participation of both law school faculties.The stars are aligning nicely for this trans-Atlantic examinationof differing legal systems, and the dialogue promisesto continue long into the future.Professor Marshall Breger (left, headof table) and Portuguese Ambassadorto the U.S. João de Vallera (right, headof table) hope to expand the unusualinternational and inter-law schoolprofessional exchanges betweenCatholic University and the Universityof Lisbon.Fall–Winter 2007 / C UALAWYER 25

Always a tenacious defender of his clients, hewas driven by an insistence on a fair shake from the justice system.Never afraid to represent unpopular clients and causes,Bennett’s legal efforts resulted in reduced sentences, new trialsor the outright release of dozens of criminal defendants over alegal career that began in the late 1960s.

A L I F E P A S S I O N F O R J U S T I C EHis former colleague at CUA, Professor Clifford Fishman,was moved to pen the memoriam below upon receivingthe news of his old friend’s passing.I want to share two thoughts about Fred — one personaland one professional.I’ve been at CUA for 30 years now, and the years that Fredwas on the faculty were definitely the most fun. One reason forthat: Several times a week, Fred, Lou Barracato, Leroy Clarkand I would get together in the faculty lounge for lunch, andthe conversations were incredible. We talked about the law, andpolitics, and race, and religion, and our kids, and the school,and sports, and just about anything else. Others joined us too,from time to time, but we four were the regulars. It was alwaysdifficult to get up from the table and go back to work.Another reason those years were so much fun was thatFred and I taught the same courses, and each of us came froma background of practical, in-court experience, but of course hiswas from the defense perspective and mine the prosecutorial, sowe’d often lock horns and swap war stories.I also have one particular “professional” moment I want totell you about. In 1995, after the O.J. Simpson verdict came in,people at the law school were of course aghast, and someonehad the clever idea of putting together a faculty presentationabout it. Four faculty members made presentations to a packedauditorium. The first three speakers — all of them tenured fullprofessors, by the way — explained how distressing the verdictwas from a sociopolitical point of view, and tried to explain thejury’s aberrant and totally incomprehensible verdict from aracial point of view, and so on. All three presentations were welldone, and each confirmed what pretty much all of us thoughtabout the verdict in the first place.Then Fred got up to speak, and unlike any of the others,he spoke about the case itself, and also the law. First, hereminded us of the elements of the crimes Simpson wascharged with; then he reviewed the legal definition of “beyonda reasonable doubt.” Then he examined the evidence for us,pointing out all of the places where a rational jury could in factfind a reasonable doubt. In typical Fred fashion, he was blunt,he asked no quarter and gave none, and he pretty much tookthe other presentations to pieces. We didn’t have to like theverdict, we didn’t have to agree with it, he told us, but we hadto respect it as a legitimate one, based on what actually happenedin the courtroom.I have only a vague recollection of who the other speakerswere, let alone what they said. But I vividly remember Fredthat day because it was so effective and so typical of him in somany ways: his passion for the law, his refusal to accept the collectiveviewpoint merely because it was the collective viewpoint,his insistence on examining the law and evidence andtaking them apart piece by piece when necessary — and hisdetermination to pass that passion and that insistence on to hisstudents — and to teach them how to do it.Fred was a loyal friend. In fact, his loyalty to CUA and ourstudents continued even after he left the full-time faculty. Hecontinued to hire CUA alumni, and he remained an activemember of our Thurgood Marshall Inns of Court.Of all the lawyers I’ve ever met, if ever I (or a loved one)was in serious legal difficulty, Fred’s the one I’d want tohave in my corner. Our profession has lost one of its finestmembers.Professor Clifford FishmanJuly 2007Another friend, Professor Lou Barracato, offered this at aeulogy for Bennett:Friends admired Fred Bennett’srefusal to bow to popular opinionjust because it was popular.“Raise your glass and bow your eyes. Do not mournthe death of Fred Warren Bennett but rather thankyour God that such a man lived and touched your life.”Fall–Winter 2007 / C UALAWYER 27

REMARKABLEEventsRemarkable Events Inspiring Tomorrow’s Leadersat The Catholic University of America Columbus School of LawGaining or Slipping in the Workplace?September — Some Americans might consider the issue of workplace discrimination settled. ButAmerica isn’t quite ready to close the book on the subject, according to Naomi Churchill Earp, chairof the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Earp, Class of 1982 and appointedas chair of the EEOC by President Bush in 2003, delivered the 39 th annual Pope John Paul XXIIIlecture to the law school community on Sept. 5. Her remarks, “Perspectives on Discrimination in the21st Century Workplace,” gave an insider’s view of the state of American prejudice in 2007 from thehead of the federal agency charged with identifying and prosecuting examples of discrimination inthe workplace. The “isms” — racism, sexism and ageism — have gone underground but not goneaway, said Earp. “I wouldn’t have thought that we’d still be battling some of the same battles, thesame issues, that we fought 40 years ago,” she said.Fine-tuning the Cogs of Financial RegulationSeptember — The American securities industry is looking at seismic changes in comingyears, but handled skillfully they could prove to be a great boon to investors. Thatforecast came from Erik Sirri, director of market regulation for the U.S. Securities andExchange Commission, as he spoke to a crowd of 60 students at the invitation of thelaw school’s Securities Law Program. His remarks, “Mutual Recognition: Regulatingthe Global Securities Markets,” provided an insider’s educated guess about where thetrend toward globalization of the world’s securities markets will ultimately end up. Thelikeliest scenario, predicted Sirri, is a relaxation of the rules that govern national stockmarkets in order to make it easier for foreign traders to do business between nations.“If that happens, it’s going to be a new world,” he said.Pushing for Prudence and Diplomacy FirstSeptember — Is Iran ultimately the biggest regional threat to U.S. interests, assome believe? If so, how should the U.S. respond to the increasingly belligerentrhetoric from that country? Certainly not with an invasion, warned Sen. ChuckHagel (R-Neb.) Perhaps the Senate's toughest Republican critic of PresidentBush's war policy, Hagel has said that the war in Iraq must not escalate into a largerconflict with Iran. “We are far wiser in pursuing, as we are, with the UnitedNations, a course of action in dealing with Iran,” says Hagel, a member of both theSenate Intelligence and Foreign Relations Committees. His talk at CUA law wassponsored by the law school’s Middle East Religious Dialogue Program, a componentof its Interdisciplinary Program in Law and Religion.28CUALAWYER /Fall–Winter 2007

Reinterpreting History with Fresh MeaningOctober — America was ordained by God to fulfill a special role in the world. So thoughtOrestes Brownson (1803–1876), a New England intellectual and activist, and perhapsthe best known American Catholic of the 19 th century. Famous in his day, Brownsonwas a restless seeker of religious thought, subscribing to different faiths throughout his lifebut ultimately winding up a Roman Catholic. He is best remembered today for his 1865book The American Republic. In it, Brownson argued that America was more than itspeople, culture and language. He believed it was a moral entity which existed to serve alarger divine purpose. Brownson’s ideas were revisited in a lecture at the Columbus Schoolof Law by Roberto de Mattei, a professor of modern history at the University of Cassino, Italy. “Orestes Brownson’s TheAmerican Republic: A European Point of View,” was delivered at the invitation of the law school’s Center for Law, Philosophyand Culture.Calling for Justice for AllOctober — Among the poor, there is one lawyer for every 7,000 people.Faced with that startling statistic, how can American law schoolsproduce graduates who understand that a vital part of a career in lawis service to others? That was the central theme of “The Role of LawSchools in Fostering Commitment to Pro Bono Publico,” a two-dayconference that was sponsored and organized by the ColumbusSchool of Law. With strong support from the dean’s office and assistancefrom fellow faculty members, the CUA symposium was conceivedand organized by Professor Sandy Ogilvy, director of Law andSocial Justice Initiatives. Thirty-six panelists from two dozen lawschools addressed such topics as “Setting up a Pro Bono Programfrom Scratch” and “A National Perspective on Shaping FutureLeaders for Justice.” Among the approximately 120 pro bonoexperts from across the country in attendance were those from lawschools, legal clinics and members of the bench and bar.Hoping for a Better Outcome This TimeOctober — The only realistic hope for an end to the ongoing genocide in the Darfur regionof western Sudan are politically inclusive peace talks, said Andrew S. Natsios, U.S. SpecialEnvoy to Sudan. Invited to speak by the Military and National Security Law StudentsAssociation, the diplomat’s address was the first in the organization’s new national securitylaw speaker series. In his 40-minute address, Natsios called for the voices of ordinarypeople in Darfur, including tribal leaders, Arab groups, women and others, to be includedin talks that began in Libya in late October. Darfur has suffered from more than 20 yearsof nearly unbroken violence fueled by religious and ethnic differences. The fighting haskilled hundreds of thousands and driven two million refugees from their homes. Natsioscalled upon the international community to maintain the pressure to move the talks in apositive direction. “Peace is its own dividend,” he concluded.Fall-Winter 2007 / C UALAWYER 29
