The Supreme Court will reconvene next month to begin another
year full of landmark decisions.  Among
the most anticipated of cases on the calendar is Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin, an affirmative action case
that will address the use of race as a factor in undergraduate admissions
decisions.  The Court is also expected to
review cases involving same sex marriage, abortion, voting rights, and campaign
finance.

Keeping up-to-date on the Supreme Court’s schedule is a
great way to stay current on legal issues, especially during law school when you
will find that SCOTUS decisions often overlap with course material.  For more information and to stay in-the-know,
