THE UNIVERSITY ON
TRIAL
The End(s) of the Legal Academy
The obituaries of academic freedom, the humanities, and
indeed the university itself are coming to focus not just on the end of an
erstwhile academy but also on what the ends, the purport, of the academy should
and could now be. This workshop brings this concern to bear on the role of
the legal academy, a role that is distinctive yet shared with other faculties
in the university. It explores what that role imports for the character of
being-together within the legal academy.
