Last night (April 16), Judge Ken Starr delivered the second Ave Maria Lecture sponsored by the Ave Maria School of Law. He spoke on the Cleveland school vouchers case, which is now sub judice at the Supreme Court, oral arguments having been heard in February.
Judge Robert Bork, a professor at the school, attended the lecture at the Ann Arbor Sheraton, along with the school's founding benefactor, Thomas S. Monaghan. Several hundred members of the bench and bar were in attendance, as well as students of the school.
Mr. Starr delivered his address and fielded questions from the audience - and he recieved two standing ovations.
The Ave Maria Lecture was inaugurated in 2000 when Justice Clarence Thomas spoke about federalism. The lecture series was designed to present timely topics that are at the forefront of legal and political debates.

When I realized that we had the liberal media's most hated jurists in one room I felt satisfied that I was studying at a great new legal institution. (I attend this school).

A large % of the students are here to engage in the culture war. Some are not, but many if not most are. Thanks for the kudos.
