LMU Federalist Society

LMU Federalist Society The Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is a group of conservatives and libertarians interested in the current state of the legal order.

The Lincoln Memorial University Duncan School of Law Federalist Society provides students with educational opportunities in the rigorous intellectual debate of legal and public policy through events hosted throughout the year. About The Federalist Society

Law schools and the legal profession are currently strongly dominated by a form of orthodox liberal ideology which advocates a centralized and

uniform society. While some members of the academic community have dissented from these views, by and large, they are taught simultaneously with (and indeed as if they were) the law. It is founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be. The Society seeks both to promote an awareness of these principles and to further their application through its activities. This entails reordering priorities within the legal system to place a premium on individual liberty, traditional values, and the rule of law. It also requires restoring the recognition of the importance of these norms among lawyers, judges, law students, and professors. In working to achieve these goals, the Society has created a conservative and libertarian intellectual network that extends to all levels of the legal community.
