Dec 14, 2023 Donald Burnett

Mark your calendars for our December Program on Thursday, Dec 14. at Bennion Student Union, from Noon to 1:30. Our guest speaker will be Law Professor, Former Dean and Interim President of U of I, Donald Burnett.

Title: " Idaho Courts: Can They Remain Independent and Impartial in a Hyper-Partisan Era?"

Talking Points:

Has the judiciary come to be regarded as a third political branch of government?
Should judges be selected based on political affiliation and positions taken on issues likely to come before them?
Does civic education provided by schools and the media adequately inform the public about the judicial process and reasons for judicial decisions?

If there is a civic education deficit, what can citizens do about it?
