This Day in Legal History: Georgia v. McCollumOn June 18, 1992, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a landmark decision in Georgia v. McCollum, 505 U.S. 42 (1992), holding that criminal defendants cannot use peremptory challenges to exclude jurors on the basis of race. This decision extended the logic of Batson v. Kentucky—which barred prosecutors from racially discriminatory jury strikes—to defense attorneys, ensuring both sides are bound by the Equal Protection Clause. The case involved white defendants in Georgia who sought to remove Black jurors, prompting the state to challenge the defense's strikes as racially biased.The Court, in a 7–2 opinion written by Justice Blackmun, reasoned that racial discrimination in jury selection, regardless of the source, undermines public confidence in the justice system and the constitutional guarantee of a fair trial. It emphasized that the courtroom is not a private forum and that all participants—prosecutors, defense attorneys, and judges—must adhere to constitutional principles.Importantly, the decision addressed the state action requirement, acknowledging that while defense attorneys are not state actors in the traditional sense, their participation in the jury selection process is conducted under judicial supervision and is thus attributable to the state. This broadened the scope of equal protection enforcement in criminal proceedings.The ruling was a major step toward eradicating racial bias in the judicial process, reinforcing that justice must not only be impartial but also be perceived as such. By holding defense attorneys to the same standard as prosecutors, the Court ensured that the integrity of jury selection is preserved across the board. The decision also highlighted the evolving understanding of the judiciary's role in preventing systemic discrimination, even in adversarial settings.Georgia v. McCollum remains a critical precedent in both constitutional law and criminal procedure, illustrating the Court's commitment to fairness in one of the most fundamental aspects of the legal system—trial by jury.U.S. District Judge Julia Kobick expanded a prior injunction, blocking the Trump administration's passport policy that restricted transgender, nonbinary, and intersex individuals from obtaining passports reflecting their gender identity. Kobick found that the State Department's revised policy—mandating passports list only “biological” sex at birth—likely violated the Fifth Amendment by discriminating on the basis of sex and reflecting irrational bias.Initially, the injunction applied only to six plaintiffs, but Kobick's ruling now grants class-action status, halting enforcement of the policy nationwide. The policy stems from an executive order signed by Trump after returning to office in January 2025, directing all federal agencies to recognize only two sexes and abandon the gender marker flexibility introduced under the Biden administration in 2022.The ruling marks a legal setback for the administration's effort to reimpose binary sex classifications across federal documents. The ACLU, representing the plaintiffs, called it a critical win for transgender rights. The White House condemned the ruling as judicial overreach. The broader case remains ongoing.US judge blocks Trump passport policy targeting transgender people | ReutersEducational toy company Learning Resources petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to take up its challenge to President Donald Trump's tariffs before lower court appeals conclude. The company argues that Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose broad tariffs is unconstitutional and economically damaging, citing a May 29 district court ruling that found the tariffs illegal. That decision, however, is currently stayed pending appeal.Learning Resources' CEO, Rick Woldenberg, warned that delaying Supreme Court review could cost American businesses up to $150 billion due to ongoing tariff-related costs. He described the tariffs as a hidden tax and accused the government of forcing importers to act as involuntary tax collectors.Two federal courts have already ruled against Trump's interpretation of IEEPA, a law historically used for targeted sanctions, not general trade policy. The administration defends the tariffs as a legal response to national emergencies like trade imbalances and drug trafficking, though critics say the justification is legally thin and economically harmful.While rare, the Supreme Court has expedited cases of national significance in the past, such as Biden's student loan forgiveness plan. A key appeals court hearing on Trump's tariff authority is scheduled for July 31.Small business seeks early Supreme Court review of Trump's tariffs | ReutersA federal judge has also temporarily blocked the Trump administration from enforcing a new Department of Defense policy that would cap indirect cost reimbursements to universities at 15%. The move came in response to a lawsuit filed by 12 research institutions—including MIT and Johns Hopkins—as well as major academic associations. These groups argued that the cap violated existing federal regulations and congressional intent.The Department of Defense had framed the policy as a cost-saving measure, with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth claiming it could save up to $900 million annually. However, universities rely on indirect cost reimbursements to fund infrastructure, staff, and equipment that support research across multiple projects—not just the ones directly funded.The ruling by Judge Brian Murphy, a Biden appointee, mirrors earlier judicial blocks of similar funding cuts proposed by the NIH and Department of Energy. A hearing is scheduled for July 2 to determine whether a longer-term injunction should be issued. The case highlights growing legal resistance to the administration's broader push to reduce federal spending on scientific research.US judge blocks Defense Department from slashing federal research funding | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court upheld Tennessee's law banning puberty blockers and hormone therapy for transgender minors in a 6–3 decision that sets a national precedent and effectively greenlights similar restrictions in over 20 states. Writing for the majority, Chief Justice Roberts concluded that the law neither classifies based on sex nor targets transgender status, and thus only required rational basis review—not heightened constitutional scrutiny. The Court accepted Tennessee's framing of the law as neutral and medically cautious, not discriminatory, citing European health policy shifts and purported uncertainty around gender-affirming care as justification.Critics, including the Court's liberal bloc, argued the law does in fact discriminate based on sex and gender identity by banning medical treatment only when it aims to affirm a transgender identity. Justice Sotomayor, in dissent, emphasized that the law's language and application plainly hinge on a minor's “sex as assigned at birth,” drawing troubling parallels to older jurisprudence that permitted covert forms of discrimination under the guise of neutrality.The ruling marks a major rollback of legal protections for transgender youth, ignoring years of precedent that increasingly recognized transgender identity as a constitutionally protected status. By lowering the scrutiny threshold and deferring to legislative “uncertainty,” the Court provided a road map for states to restrict gender-affirming care through general, non-explicitly discriminatory language. The majority's refusal to engage with medical consensus or the real-world impact on transgender youth reveals a troubling judicial posture: one that values legislative deference over individual rights, even when the stakes include physical and psychological harm to a vulnerable group.Supreme Court Upholds Curbs on Treatment for Transgender Minors This is a public episode.

Hi everyone.I run a lot of workshops within organizations. They're great for connecting people, allowing space for questions, and inspiring teams. But here's the thing: I'm not convinced they're the best method of training staff in most cases.Don't get me wrong, workshops have their place and I enjoy running them. They create a shared learning environment, foster discussion, and can be incredibly motivating. However, they come with some significant drawbacks that we need to address.Key Challenges with WorkshopsFirst, let's consider the retention problem. Unless people immediately apply what they've learned in a workshop, they tend to forget it. Even if they do use the information right away, without regular application, that knowledge fades over time. It's just how our brains work.Then there's the issue of staff turnover. When employees who attended a workshop leave, they take that knowledge with them. New hires miss out unless you repeat the workshop, which can be expensive and logistically challenging.Speaking of logistics, getting everyone in the same place at the same time is always a headache. There's always someone on vacation, out sick, or unable to attend for various reasons. This leads to knowledge gaps within teams.Workshops also tend to be one-size-fits-all solutions, which is problematic when you have attendees with varying levels of experience. Some people might be bored, while others struggle to keep up.Lastly, workshops require intense concentration, which can be exhausting for participants. By the end of a long session, people's attention spans are stretched thin, and their ability to absorb information diminishes.The Alternative: Self-Learning ResourcesSo, what's the alternative? I'm a strong advocate for self-learning resources broken down into small, focused lessons. These could teach specific skills like "how to run a 5-second test" or "how to edit a page on the CMS." I find this approach far more effective when I implement them in organizations.These resources could take various forms: short videos, step-by-step written instructions, or even checklists. Some content could be universal and purchased off-the-shelf (like "writing for the web"), while other material would need to be custom-made for your organization.Imagine organizing all of this in a UX playbook alongside policies, procedures, standards, and more general educational content like "why accessibility matters." You could even integrate these resources directly into your tools. For example, embedding how-to guides within your CMS so people can access instructions right when they need them.Speaking of playbooks, if you're an agency owner or freelancer, I've created one just for you! It includes easy-to-follow guides, client education materials, and tools to help simplify your web design projects. Check it out here.Benefits of Self-Learning ResourcesI've found that self-learning resources offer numerous benefits for organizations:Consistent knowledge base: Everyone accesses the same information, ensuring standardized knowledge across the organization, regardless of when they joined.Self-paced learning: Staff can engage with material when it's most relevant and revisit as needed, accommodating different learning styles and schedules.Always available: No waiting for the next workshop to learn crucial skills. This immediate access can significantly reduce downtime and boost productivity.Scalable: Once created, these resources can be used by unlimited employees across various departments and locations.Cost-effective: After the initial investment, ongoing costs are minimal compared to repeated workshops, offering a high return on investment over time.Flexible: Easy to update and expand as processes and technologies evolve, ensuring learning materials remain current and relevant.Personalized learning: Employees can focus on areas most relevant to their roles or skill gaps, creating a more tailored experience.Measurable results: Digital learning resources often include analytics, allowing you to track engagement and assess training effectiveness.Continuous learning culture: Readily available resources encourage employees to take ownership of their professional development, fostering a growth mindset.Remote team support: Self-learning resources are particularly valuable for organizations with remote workers or multiple office locations, ensuring consistent training regardless of physical location.Finding the Right BalanceDon't get me wrong – I'm not saying we should completely do away with workshops. They still have value, especially for team building, brainstorming, and tackling complex problems that benefit from group discussion. But they shouldn't be your only, or even primary, method of training and knowledge sharing.By investing in a robust set of self-learning materials, you're not just training your current staff – you're building a knowledge infrastructure that will serve your organization for years to come. It's about creating a culture of continuous learning, where employees are empowered to seek out information and improve their skills on an ongoing basis.Moving ForwardSo, the next time you're tempted to schedule another workshop, ask yourself: Is this the most effective way to share this knowledge? Or could you create a resource that will have a more lasting impact?

Health education is lacking in most school systems, to the extent that most high school graduates can't name 10 muscles in their own bodies. Anatomical learning has historically been seen as boring, complex, and difficult to make relevant. Today, things have changed, thanks to 3D software, inexpensive models, and cadaver dissections freely available around the world. On this week's podcast, you'll meet an online educator reaching millions monthly with anatomy and physiology videos using real human cadavers. You'll learn: How cadavers are donated and used ethically (or not) in science The anomalous nature of all of our bodies Why real human bodies are still an invaluable resource in learning How to use LLMs / AI to advance your learning Links Institute of Human Anatomy Dissection Room on Youtube Substack ABOUT OUR GUEST Justin Cottle is the Lab Director at the Institute of Human Anatomy, a private human cadaver lab located in Salt Lake City, Utah.
