LAW 796SEM - Criminal Law Colloquium

This seminar allows students to learn from some of the nation’s preeminent philosophers of moral and criminal law by giving them the opportunity to actively participate in the Buffalo Criminal Law Center (BCLC) Colloquium Series. The BCLC Colloquium series provides a forum for scholars to present their work to the accomplished criminal law and philosophy faculty of SUNY Buffalo Law School and via teleconference to some of America’s leading moral and criminal theorists. Given that scholars will travel to UB School of Law to present their papers as part of the Colloquium, students must be prepared to rearrange their schedules if the date that the scholar is available falls outside of regular class meeting time. There will be three talks during the semester, so enrolled students will only need to make this accommodation once per month. The talks will be related to current issues in criminal law theory, but the specific topics not be known until later this summer.
