Event Description
An art history professor at Hamline University ignited
intrigue and debate by introducing students to artistic representations of the
Prophet Muhammad during class, a move which offended some students, led the
university to not renew the professor’s contract, and now serves as the
centerpiece for litigation about academic freedom. Assistant Washington County
Attorney Andrew Jackola will lead a one-hour discussion about the case,
addressing the concept of academic freedom and how it fits within First
Amendment jurisprudence. This CLE will provide attorneys with an understanding
of the legal underpinnings of this newsworthy case and help establish you as an
informed practitioner when discussing it among colleagues, friends, and
family.
