The Network to host Yale’s Driver to discuss the influence of the Supreme Court in the classroom


The Wisconsin Collaborative Education Research Network (the Network) is hosting an event with Justin Driver, a professor with Yale Law School and author of “The Schoolhouse Gate: Public education, the Supreme Court, and the battle for the American Mind.”

On Nov. 18 from noon to 1:30 p.m. in Lathrop Hall’s Virginia Harrison Parlor, Driver will discuss how the Supreme Court’s decisions influence public schools and students’ constitutional rights.

The Network connects and engages educators, community members, researchers, and other stakeholders to transform education. The Network coordinates the UW-Madison School of Education’s Grand Challenges initiative, a grant program to support research and practice in education, health, and creative expression. The Network also coordinates the Network Fellows program, which connects graduate students with opportunities to collaborate with community organizations.
