On Tuesday, September 12, three of the nation’s leading constitutional law scholars will come together to discuss whether the United States is striking the right balance between civil liberties and national security in fighting the war on terrorism. Professors Charles Fried and Laurence Tribe of Harvard Law School, and Professor Steven Calabresi of Northwestern University’s School of Law will speak at the panel discussion titled, “Freedom and Security Five Years After 9/11?”

“The HLS Federalist Society hopes this event, like all of our events, will foster intellectual debate and discussion on campus,” said Dan Sullivan, 3L and president of the HLS Federalist Society, sponsor of the event. “We are thrilled to have three of the country’s top law professors talking about these important issues near the fifth anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks.”

This event will take place on Tuesday, September 12 at 3 p.m. in the Harkness Commons on the second floor. For more information, please contact pmezzina@law.harvard.edu.
