Selected students will have the opportunity to contribute to the work of the clinic under the direction of the clinic director\/law school faculty member.

This seminar, led by Morrison Family Director of the Institute for Freedom and Community, is designed to acquaint students with\u00a0<strong>moral, political and social ideas<\/strong>\u00a0that challenge comfortable partisan opinions or reigning orthodoxies in the academy<strong>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The seminar invites students into a\u00a0<strong>bold free-thinking<\/strong>\u00a0project but also offers a supportive environment for expressing and considering views out of the academic mainstream.\u00a0 What counts as \u201cout of the mainstream\u201d is, of course, contextual, and will depend on circumstances at a particular point in time.<\/p>\n<p>Building on the discussions, dialogue, and discourse of The Weber Seminar, participants will pursue their own individualized research projects that reflect in a substantial and concentrated way a strong critical engagement with the content of the seminar. The individual research component of the Weber Summer Scholars Program will thus allow students to develop their research practices, writing skills, and creative energies around a singular and specialized area of study that intersects with the moral, political and social ideas presented during the seminar. Immersing oneself in a research project full-time will not only result in more learning about the subject of study, but it will also develop critical thinking skills and competencies. Students will have the opportunity to present their work in a virtual conference-style format while also sharing insights with one another.<\/p>\n<p><!-- begin-migrated-from-panel-builder --><!-- end-migrated-from-panel-builder --><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Svoboda Legal Scholars Summer Program &#8211; more information on program website St. Olaf College\u2019s Svoboda Legal Scholars Program offers an opportunity for a select group of undergraduate students to perform [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4065,"featured_media":31198,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-31184","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/pipercenter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/31184","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/pipercenter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/pipercenter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/pipercenter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4065"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/pipercenter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31184"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/pipercenter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/31184\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40949,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/pipercenter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/31184\/revisions\/40949"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/pipercenter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31198"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/pipercenter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31184"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
