Fordham University Law School hosts Forum on Law, Culture and Society, a place that allows people to connect, discuss and think about the way legal matters affect society and influence the artistic imagination.
In an age where public debate offers mostly shrill, coarsened, and abbreviated sound bites, the Forum provides public programming that is dedicated to intelligent, stimulating, thought-provoking, and entertaining talk. The Forum illuminates legal and political issues by bringing them to the public square. It is an industry leader with regard to the quality and celebrity of its guests, the range of discussions it provokes, and the festive atmosphere it provides. The Forum’s annual programming enriches the cultural life of New York City, along with all those who find the Forum through its Web site, reminding its audience—live and virtual—that the discussion of important ideas is more important than ever and can also make for quality entertainment.
