Last Wed. I led the Spirit in the Law Discussion on the topic, “Humble Lawyers: Can They Exist? Do They Exist? And How to Become One.” There were many helpful and interesting comments by those in attendance. I thought I’d share some of the articles I used (or thought about using) in case you’re interested. (Articles in the Clark Memorandum can only be linked to the issue level. You’ll need to scroll down to the appropriate page.)
