Welcome to the Conlawed blog. I will begin posting on or before July 15. This blog will replace the hundreds of newsletters that the CLEP has published for the past six years. My hope is that the postings will be relevant to Civics/Government/Con Law teachers in high schools around the country. Also, I hope that it stimulates dialogue among teachers about teaching this greatest of all subjects.

In the meantime, check out the latest comments regarding the Supreme Court term of 2007-2008 from the great Linda Greenhouse in this morning's NY Times, Cornell's LII, and Tony Mauro.
