School is as usual taking up every bit of my time, but I wanted to link to a few things, just so the ol' blog isn't too abandoned by the time this semester is over.

A fellow Wheaton grad and former co-worker just came out with his book about Christianity and immigration: Welcoming the Stranger. This will be one of my first reads of the summer!
I knew that taking constitutional law right after George W. Bush's disastrous presidency would be interesting. We just covered habeas corpus and Hamdi v. Rumsfeld. I'm encouraged that our new president taught constitutional law.
