\nOnline Zoom Meeting<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Dear Colleagues:<\/p>\n

Greetings, and I hope that you and yours are healthy and safe in this better but not quite better enough time for the world, our nation, our community, and Case Western Reserve University.<\/p>\n

I write to announce the first \u201cFriday Lunch\u201d of the academic year, one of the fine traditions of our series, and a mostly filled-out schedule that I think looks pretty exciting. But I must begin with disappointing news about how we will meet.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Students have returned and virtually all classes are now planning to meet in person. But the spread of the Delta variant and somewhat expected news that protection through vaccination appears to decline over time still leave reason for caution. So\u00a0I regret having to announce that the \u201cFriday Lunch\u201d will start off the semester in \u201cvirtual\u201d mode, with Zoom-only meetings.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The university expects that those who attend classes and in-person meetings will be vaccinated and will wear masks. Students and faculty in classes also are not supposed to eat, though the guidance is that they may drink carefully (e.g. through straws or sipping with quickly raised-and-lowered masks). The guidance is that \u201cmasks may be removed indoors while dining,\u201d but people should \u201cmaintain social distance from others during the meal.\u201d It seems to me that if anything resembling a normal crowd attends a Friday Lunch, any eating or drinking will be in a much more crowded space than that anticipates \u2013 far more so, for example, than in a normal restaurant, or any of the university dining facilities. The participants are likely to be quite widely vaccinated, but also mostly in more vulnerable categories. I consulted with a group of longtime and frequent participants in the discussions, and they recommended that we start off cautiously.<\/p>\n

I expect that in a few weeks we will know more, and perhaps it will be good news. So we may revisit whether we can meet in person later in September. Please e-mail me if you have suggestions about other approaches \u2013 for instance, does it make sense to do \u201cFriday Lunch\u201d without, well, lunch? My e-mail is<\/span>\u00a0joseph.white@case.edu<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

This Week\u2019s Program!<\/h3>\n

Universities are not the only organizations which begin their years as the leaves are turning. That is also when the Supreme Court begins its new term. So for many years we have begun Fall semester with our distinguished Law School faculty talking about what the Supreme Court did in the term just finished and what we might expect from the term that begins on October 1. It is a great pleasure to welcome back Professors Adler and Entin to continue the tradition.<\/p>\n

The biggest question about the Court going forward is how having Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg replaced by Justice Amy Coney Barrett will shape decisions. It is widely agreed that Justice Barrett\u2019s appointment<\/span>\u00a0solidifies conservative dominance of the Court<\/span><\/a>,and by making<\/span>\u00a0Chief Justice Roberts no longer the pivotal vote<\/span><\/a>\u00a0may change the pattern in which Roberts has crafted narrow decisions on controversial issues, sometimes siding with the then-4-person \u201cliberal\u201d bloc. So one obvious question is how that worked out after Barrett joined the Court. It will be interesting to see how our experts interpret the mix of decisions in the past term, which included some that disappointed conservatives \u2013 especially upholding the Affordable Care Act in<\/span>\u00a0California v. Texas<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u2013 but also a series of decisions, especially regardin<\/span>g\u00a0election rules<\/span><\/a>,<\/span>\u00a0unions<\/span><\/a>,<\/span>\u00a0money as \u201cspeech\u201d<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and<\/span>\u00a0religion<\/span><\/a>\u00a0that must have made conservatives much happier.<\/p>\n

How the Court shapes policy depends, however, not just on its leanings but on the cases that come its way and which it accepts. So we might expect the Barrett appointment to be more significant in this coming term, because the term could have much more controversial cases both by choice (what the Court decided to hear with its different membership) and luck. At a minimum, the Supremes after substantial internal debate decide to accept a<\/span>\u00a0major gun-rights case<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and have accepted a very<\/span>\u00a0serious challenge<\/span><\/a>\u00a0to the parameters set in Roe v. Wade.<\/p>\n

Please join Professors Adler and Entin for their wise but sometimes different perspectives on the law and the Court, what has happened and what might happen next.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Signing In<\/h3>\n

This semester’s discussions will begin at 12:30 p.m., the usual time. The meeting will be set up as from Noon to 2:00 p.m., so people are not all signing in at the same time and to allow for the discussion to run a bit long.\u00a0Each week we will send out this newsletter with information about the topic. It will also include a link to register (for free) for the discussion.<\/strong>\u00a0Every Monday the same information will be posted on our website:<\/span>\u00a0fridaylunch.case.edu<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you register, you will automatically receive from the Zoom system the link to join the meeting. This week’s link for registration is:<\/span><\/p>\n

https:\/\/cwru.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tJcucOyhqDsqE9Dnj4V92ALRw4e916cVDRZW<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.<\/p>\n

Please e-mail<\/span>\u00a0padg@case.edu<\/span><\/a>\u00a0if you have questions about how the Zoom version of the Friday Lunch will work or any other suggestions. Or call at 216 368-2426 and we’ll try to get back to you. We are very pleased to be partnering this semester with the<\/span>\u00a0Siegal Lifelong Learning Program<\/span><\/a><\/strong>\u00a0to share information about the discussions.<\/p>\n

Best wishes for safety and security for you and yours,<\/p>\n
