Professor Emeritus Alan Brownstein recently moderated a panel on religious freedom at the Fourth Conference of the International Consortium for Law and Religion Studies (ICLARS) and spoke at a St. John's University School of Law conference on "Religious Freedom Today."

At the ICLARS conference, held September 8-11 in Oxford, England, Professor Brownstein moderated a panel on "Freedom of Religion and Non-Discrimination."  At St. John’s on September 16, he was a panelist in a discussion of Nelson Tebbe's forthcoming book Religious Freedom in an Egalitarian Age.

In addition, a written statement by Professor Brownstein (along with the written statements of several other scholars) is included in the United States Commission on Civil Rights recently published Briefing Report, "Peaceful Coexistence: Reconciling Nondiscrimination Principles with Civil Liberties."

Professor Brownstein, a nationally recognized Constitutional Law scholar, taught Constitutional Law, Law and Religion, and Torts at UC Davis School of Law for more than 30 years. Prior to his retirement from teaching, he held the Boochever and Bird Endowed Chair for the Study and Teaching of Freedom and Equality.
