John O. Calmore RANDOM NOTES OF AN INTEGRATION WARRIOR 81 Minnesota Law Review 1441 (June, 1997) I think that the hard work of a nonracist sensibility is the boundary crossing, from safe circle into wilderness: the testing of boundary, the consecration of sacrilege. It is the willingness to spoil a good party and break an encompassing circle, to travel from the safe to the unsafe. The transgression is dizzyingly intense, a reminder of what it... 1997

W. Burlette Carter RECONSTRUCTING LANGDELL 32 Georgia Law Review 1 (Fall, 1997) Langdell. In legal circles the name evokes a series of less than complimentary images: a man who purported to teach law, but despised the practice of it; one who believed that law should be studied within the four walls of the university, away from its practice, in much the way that a scientist discovers scientific principles within the sterile... 1997
