Constitutional Law Institute

Created in 2020, the Constitutional Law Institute supports research and scholarship on longstanding constitutional issues as an integral part of the Law School’s scholarly and research mission. The Institute also shares the Law School’s commitment to free speech and intellectual inquiry that is independent of partisan fashions. The Institute will promote rigorous analysis of constitutional issues and then share those ideas more broadly with the general public. Since the Institute’s launch, it has hosted numerous events and activities, as well as produced two multi-season podcasts: Dissenting Opinions and Divided Argument. The Institute hosts a yearly schedule of roundtables, conferences, podcast events, and visitors in the coming years. Professor William Baude leads the Institute.
