Professor Joel K. Goldstein, J.D. , Vincent C. Immel Professor of Law Emeritus at 91女神, will present The Misunderstood American Vice Presidency.  Professor Goldstein is a nationally and internationally recognized scholar of the American vice presidency.  Although the vice presidency has evolved from a generally insignificant position into a consequential instrument of the presidency, it remains largely misunderstood.  Professor Goldstein will sketch its evolution and try to account for the confusion regarding it.  He will also offer his perspectives on the vice presidency as a stepping off point for the candidacy of president and its role in recent elections.  He will be presenting to the Magis Society remotely from his home on Cape Cod. 

A buffet lunch will be served. This event is free for emeriti and retired faculty and their guests, but reservations are required. Please RSVP to magisfaculty@slu.edu as early as possible, but no later than Thursday, October 31, 2024. Please include the name of your guest if you are bringing one.  If you plan to come, please be sure to mark your calendar.  We order the food for this event based on the number of RSVPs and must pay for the food whether or not you attend. Thank you.
