Podcast appearances and mentions of William B Graham

This is Part One of our three-part series discussing Title IX, and sexual misconduct proceedings on university campuses. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos recently attracted controversy by rescinding the Obama administration’s guidance for how universities should handle sexual misconduct cases on their campuses. How do these proceedings function? What did the Obama administration require? Does the system work or is there a superior alternative? We discuss these questions and more with Professor Daniel Hemel, Assistant Professor of Law at the University of Chicago, Professor Saul Levmore, William B. Graham Distinguished Service Professor of Law at the University of Chicago, Professor Laura Kipnis of Northwestern University School of Communication, and Professor Nancy Chi Cantalupo, Assistant Professor of Law at Barry University. This episode of Briefly, a production of the University of Chicago Law Review, was produced by Kathryn Running, Tom Molloy and John Tienken. Music from www.bensound.com. Special thanks to the entire online team, including Grace Bridwell, Tom Garvey, and Noel Ottman, and our Editor in Chief Pat Ward and Executive Editor Kyle Jorstad.

University of Chicago Law School faculty members Saul Levmore and Martha Nussbaum discuss a new book they have co-edited, “American Guy: Masculinity in American Law and Literature.” Levmore is the William B.

To watch the longer discussion with Martha Nussbaum and Saul Levmore go here: http://news.uchicago.edu/multimedia/conversation-martha-nussbaum-and-saul-levmore-their-new-book American Guy: Masculinity in American Law and Literature “American Guy” examines American norms of masculinity and their role in the law, bringing a range of methodological and disciplinary perspectives to the intersection of American gender, legal, and literary issues. The collection opens with a set of papers investigating “American Guys”—the heroic nonconformists and rugged individualists who populate much of American fiction. Diverse essays examine the manly men of Hemingway, Dreiser, and others in their relation to the law, while also highlighting the underlying tensions that complicate this version of masculinity. A second set of papers examines “Outsiders”—men on the periphery of the American Guys who proclaim a different way of being male. These essays take up counter-traditions of masculinity ranging from gay male culture to Philip Roth’s portrait of the Jewish lawyer.
