The Rehnquist Court's approach to important constitutional questions has elicited both high praise and stinging criticism. Although Justice Roberts now presides as chief justice, William Rehnquist exercised strong leadership and moved the court in a more conservative direction during his long tenure as chief. This seminar will focus on the Supreme Court in transition. We will explore the history of the Rehnquist Court, read biographies of Justices Blackman and O'Connor, and examine the competing theories of constitutional interpretation offered by Justices Scalia and Breyer. We will also consider the impact of the 2008 presidential election on the future of the court. Prerequisite: Course is only open to Senior Public Policy and Law Majors. 1.00 units, Seminar
